At intermission of the Hornets' game, I said that KG had just finished the worst half of basketball I could remember him playing . . . ever. He improved in the second half. Indeed, a few local fish-wraps went so far as to say that KG's second-half performance against the Hornets was his best yet since his return. I strongly disagreed. But figured that maybe I just wasn't paying attention. Either that, or my Haight-Ashbury days were finally catching up with me.
Midway through the fourth brick KG hoisted in the first half of tonight's game against Philadelphia, the jury had seen enough evidence to render a preliminary verdict. KG just ain't right. His open jumpers look bad, and he's not getting much lift on the contested jumpers. His maneuverability for inside moves is limited. On defense, he's tentative and sometimes even passive, letting guards drive around him for lay-ups.
There's nothing we can do about it, other than keep throwing him out their on the court and hope things improve. I think they will. I'm just not as certain as I was earlier in the season.

BOSTON -- Newly acquired backup Stephon Marbury scored six points during a 9-0 fourth-quarter run, Ray Allen added 30 points and Rajon Rondo matched his career high with 17 assists on Friday night as the Boston Celtics beat the Indiana Pacers 104-99.
Marbury finished with eight points and two assists just hours after clearing waivers and signing with the Celtics for their push toward the playoffs and a try at back-to-back NBA titles.After receiving a standing ovation, Marbury quickly sank his first shot -- his first points since Jan. 11, 2008.Glen "Big Baby" Davis, starting in place of the injured Kevin Garnett, scored 18, and Kendrick Perkins had 11 rebounds for Boston, which returned home after going 4-2 on a six-game road trip.Ford scored 23 and Troy Murphy had 20 points and 13 assists for the Pacers.Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press
