    I'd like Amen to develop on strong move to the baseline, so that when comes up on the break, he could hesitate and be at the rim in a flash or take that pause and attack the middle of the paint.

    Right now, he has zero confidence in his drive. He's dribbling and hoping not to make a mistake.

    I submit that there is very little practical difference between their 3P shooting in terms of winning games. Neither of them are guys you have to really cover closely at the 3P line and neither of them shoot an efficient percentage on a decent volume of shots.

    he needs to get more selfish on offense. TO’s be damned. By the playoffs he would be getting double teamed consistently.

    That’s the sad point I was somewhat joking about.

    Kind of feel like an apple turnover right now.

    Wonder why that is?

    I would bet a million dollars KD leads the league in having passes deflected.

    It's crazy he refuses to screw his head on and adjust.

    This is where you come back with some new faces that are going to play focused because I feel like we're getting a little lazy right now.

    4 v 3 DISADVANTAGE on a fastbreak.

    Rockets force some bullsh1t.... turnover... 3PT on the other end (guy wide open).

    We're up big, but same problems when up small, down small, then lose.
