John Wall

yeah, Wall has been pretty disappointing so far.  I think the lockout really cut into his development.  This should be a breakout year for him.


I think some older guys like Lamar, Nash, Battier, and hopefully KG and JO may just need a little while to get back into game shape and into the flow of the season.

A lot of these vets are used to using training camp and pre-season to get into game shape (which is different than work-out shape), and they haven't had that this year.  It's totally broken up their routine, and I'm sure that's hardest on the older players who thrive on their routine.

ya, I agree...the old players have looked the worst so far(except for Ray allen maybe..too small sample on pierce) and I think its attributed to the shortened offseason.

it will probably take a month before these guys start playing the way they are accustomed to

On a personal level, Kevin Garnett.

Otherwise, it has to be Lamar Odom.  He's looked TERRIBLE in Dallas when he was brought in to replace Chandler
