    Thing is, he has "explored" for 31 games already, and can't seem to find his game yet. He seems to not be able to change what he is doing.

    He needs to get out of tunnel vision fast, and...dare I say it...get lessons on team play from McGrady...

    Sorry Yodels, but he's been on several teams and even on a championship team. If he doesn't know what his limit is yet then may the good Lord help him.

    Contrary, I think he does...and that is to be a spot-up scorer to a great passer/penetrator (ok, I forgot how to spell that word).

    Unfortunately, on this team he's having to be the opposite of that. I think that would make anyone uncomfortable. Imagine if you went from the guy who just makes the french fries to the guy who has to run the drive-thru, it'd be pretty traumatizing.

    I think the problem with Ariza is his body. He need to get stronger he get out of balance almost every time. If he going to play so much and take a big load on the offense he need to get his body ready, but I don't know how can he do that this season, he will have to wait the off season to work on the strengths of body, his dribble and his of the dribble on the move jump shoot.
