There was a play in the fourth when AB had the ball on the top of the key and Yao had his man, Duncan, sealed and he wasn't even trying to front Yao and AB just dribble it away and swung it to Artest. That play made me speechless.
Ab needs to attack the basket more and stop deferring so much. That's why I would like him to be that spark plug off the bench, so he can just go full throttle on everyone. He's certainly capable of creating plays, but is a hesitant passer when not moving.
