This guy has not been the same since the Golden State game (his first game back). just check out the last 5 games stats: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=3217 He doesn't appear to have the same explosiveness, the pick and roll with him and Mac is MIA. Granted, his minutes have been limited and Scola has been tremendous, but anyone else concerned?
True -but since his first game back, he seems to be getting worse, not better . I would expect the opposite.
he is bot getting enough touches, form what i had seem and minute, also give him sometime to get back to heathly,which i htink he is not back to 100% yet.
I think the knee injury is worse than they are letting on. Dude's hops have disappeared. We usually see Landry skying over fools to dunk and block shots. I haven't seen him dunk in weeks
i dont know the stats exactly nor do i want to look them up for the sake of what im about to say. If Carl played more and took a few more shts in the last game we would have won. i do know that he was like 0-1 in like 10 minutes WTH is that. he is way to good to only get 1 shot in that time. the team is just slacking off in the last few games. nothing looks as sharp as it was before the PHX game. The defense has for the most part fallen apart. we have given up rediculous shooting percentages ever since PHX shot liek 78% in the 1st half of that loss. for us to have any shot at the second round we better fix the D and landry should get at least 8 shots per game. he is to good to be limited in his shots. maybe they should consider playing him with scola some so his minutes are not cut down so much.

I think it has a lot to do with the way teams are playing him as well. The pick and roll with him and Tracy is gone because teams have adjusted to it. Defenders see it coming and they just simply go around it. They need to come up with a new strategy. Run Landry through more than one pick to create some room for him or something.
he doesnt look too hurt out there. he just gets in foul trouble and isn't getting touches because teams have scouted better. he'll be fine. if we start running the pick and roll more efficiently instead of letting tmac get trapped and pushed back 40 ft from the basket, landry will be back to his dunking ways.
Defenses may have adjusted to him some. Recently, Landry hasn't gotten the ball in dunking position very often. He's going to have to hit the jumpers that teams are giving him or they will back off. His jumper is totally off right now.
Yep that's exactly what I noticed. Landry has caught the attention of the league and they are adjusting to his play.
I don't think its defenses. He simply looks flat out there. Either tired or pain. Obviously something isn't right. Which goes to show you how vital an athletic finisher can be for this team. I had proffered we look into a shooter with size in the offseason. Now its clear what an athlete can bring to this offense.
Well he had a knee injury and anyone who has had a knee injury will tell you, it's not the physical injury but the mental injury that is the hardest to heal...
