Wow! Thanks for that contribution. I think you'll find the Caps Lock key to the left hand side of your keyboard
I have only seen a few games and I was at the Dallas game. Form what I have seen, MoT seems to to be best player we ahve at feeding the ball to Yao. He always looks to Yao when he gets they ball. I think there is more to Mo not playnig than meets the eye. He is either out of shape still or they are scared of that tendon. A PF with his size, shooting touch, and contract is not often benched. Even when in a slump. He was the started when he was injured and I thought Rudy would eb loyal to that when he came back. Anyone?
Obviously you you got this one wrong; our passing IS NOT "atrocious - our on-the-ball decision making is (and it all starts will whatever Francis, the 'LG' decides to do with the allocated 24 second clock - PERIOD!).
How is this obvious? This is not all about decision making and choosing who to pass to. One of the benefits of a true point guard is the ability to make passes - good ones. Is Jason Kidd a great point guard just because of his decision making? No. He is a great, skillful passer. Ive seen several passes over someone's head, at someone's feet, thrown into the middle of the crowd, etc...
Actually, I think the two things that make Kidd a great PG are his mentality (always pushing the ball, aggressive at both ends of the floor), and his court vision. I don't think his physical passing skills even compare to, say, Jason Williams (Mem).
YAO i dont think will even hit the rookie wall. maybe a slump or two but i dont think he'll hit the rookie wall.
RIET: You're right, but I was talking about the physical skill (ie going behind the back off your elbow on a fast break). The very best passers just make easy passes, nothing difficult (physically) about making them, a la John Stockton.
