I thought Walt didn't play defense

    How about that block on TMac on a crucial play in the 4th. He even hit a big 3 in the 4th also. The rest of the team has given him some motivation...I've noticed that ever since we started winning he's been playing decent defense, especially tonight and in the Philly game. I haven't been a huge supporter of him lately, but I haven't given up on him either. I believe he can still be a key role player if he can play both ends of the floor like he is now. The only problem I see with him now is trying to drive too much...he almost always turns it over then. He needs to pass it whenever he is in traffic, not try to go through the defense and scoop one in. He needs to be a set shooter, period.

    Thoughts...
