    Why does Dwight have to "demand" the ball? Shouldn't our guards just know to give it to him, especially if it looks like he has his man pinned down. It can't be that hard. Throw it to Dwight and if the shot's not there, he'll kick it out. I can't stand when we have a stretch of possessions that do not make it to Dwight instead we toss it around the perimeter, which so stupid when our shots are not falling.

    that maybe true but one way to get others involved is to run plays. I've seen more effective play calling from van gundy.

    always loved watching the bulls (even though I hate them) run the triangle. everyone gets involved. nobody can watch an iso when they run it. even Adelman's offensive is fun to watch. tonight against sac and the other night against the thunder was f'n terrible.

    even dream talked (and Kenny) in some interviews that he talked to Kenny smith that he needed more touches going against another great center like shaq. Kenny listened. seeing cousins look like some great center was horrible. d12 should tear that guy in half tonight.

    Parsons is really bad at the pass to the post. Casspi has shown a good ability to play alongside a post player. T-Jones at least moves for the most part, so he should be okay. Harden obviously chose to take it himself after seeing Durant own us; we'll see what happens after that.

    There were some plays in the Kings game in which Dwight and/or T-Jones were open down low briefly and calling for the ball but the ballhandlers were looking down at the ground and not at the paint. Really?

    The coaches seem inept on this front (wait, defensively as well), but I suppose we're waiting to get another star player anyways...

    Howard also ideally needs to find a way to get refs to see the fouls on his shots and get calls, CP3 it some.

    Very saddening to see him tear it up in the second quarter only to watch them not use him AT ALL for the rest of the game.
