    can someone keep a running tab this season on how many times Taylor passes the ball?

    Thanks.

    Oh, I'm not complaining about last night.

    I would just honestly like to know what percentage of the time he passes the ball. 5%?

    the guy takes 9 shots per game in 21 minutes play and makes a 33% shooting percentage. there is no time for him to pass the ball.

    Yeah, he seems to have a real nose for the ball.

    He's trying to get his timing....it won't happen often. We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30! We WON BY 30!

    since he is coming off the bench would you rather him work on getting his shot back with a 30 point lead... or let umm...humm... what's face that we just picked up off the wire righgt before tip off

    This thread isn't about last night. Didn't I already make that clear?

    For a team that is commited to the low post game he has been ineffective and lost so far.

    I was thinking the very same thing last night. Don't take wrong, I love the win, but every freaking time the ball went to him in the post I cringed..... because I knew it wasn’t coming out. He would try and dribble through a double team and throw up an erratic shot before passing the rock...

    Very frustrating.

    I got killed last season by posting negatively on this guy's passing skills, if he does has passing ability and never uses, is he really a good passer?

    I thought that Mo did a solid job of passing at the end of last season. Besides, when Mo is in the game, he's often called upon to score as the only viable offensive threat in the post. People have called him "instant offense" off the bench when he plays with the second team.

    Plus, keep in mind that he missed the preseason and is trying to get on track offensively. He'll get better as the season progresses. I just wish somebody would go Shaq on him and tell him that as he's trying to get back from his shoulder injury, he should look to pass the ball more until he's all better.

    Othella has set the bar as for black holes at the PF spot and MT isn't close.
