I try to be as optimistic as possible at all times, but this team isn't performing well right now.
I wish Doc would play big more, rather than small. I know Wilcox is in foul trouble right now, and KG needs minute-restrictions, but Jason Collins is over on the bench rotting. I'm not saying his presence would improve our team dramatically, but I'd bet we'd be giving up less points in the paint in this game.
At the end of the first when we had three straight turnovers, I was pulling out my hair. That's inexcusable for a team that usually has three legit ball handlers on the court at all times. This issue of constantly turning the ball over needs to be addressed soon.
Defensively, we've been atrocious, particularly Terry. I watched him for about five straight possessions where he was in no-man's land, and his guy either drove and kicked, or scored. It was disgusting, to say the least. He needs to work on his D if he wants to back up his tattoo.
Jeff Green isn't a bad player. He's just an incredibly passive player. I've seen him get the ball at the top of the key, and not even dribble. He looks for a big or guard that can take it out of his hands so he doesn't have to do anything. It's really bothering me. He's so strong, and has such a great wingspan, that I'm shocked he hasn't realized he can drive by his man. Remember the game in Turkey. Someone show that tape to Jeff. He needs to be more assertive.
Other than that, we're playing just dandy.
