amir is 3-3 but only gets putbacks, hasn't touched it otherwise. Your PG has to know who is playing well and get them a look.

Amir is an odd offensive player. Has flashes of scoring but is mostly uninvolved. I think he's probably just in rapid decline and prefers to use his energy on defense.

you say that based on what?

He relies on speed and athleticism and those have been fading for him over the last few years. Check out his rebound and block numbers over that time period. Hard trend downward.

what you say is simply not true

Evan Turner.   Absolutely terrific.

The play before the fallaway, he could have lost the ball and people here would have killed him.  But he's the only one on the court able to make things happen.  He gave the ball up twice before his drive.

I know I do. He's playing more team ball than IT did. Which is how this team has to play.

Cutting a hell of a lot less than he used to too.

Amir has been stagnant on offense. Too much standing around watching the ball.

Amir used to be one of the most active big man cutters in the league 3-4 years ago.

I liked that "NBA News" segment.

"We hear Brandon INgram is the next Kevin Durant.  You hear that Sacramento... The next Durant.  It's totally not a 1 player draft.  Seriously.  Trade for our pick.  Please.  So many guys are fast rising.  It's totally worth it."

wrong thread lb. this is the game thread.

I pointed out all offseason that he was arguably our best player during our playoff run.  Everyone insisted he was the odd man out.

Good to see Smart get something going.

He's really a horrible offensive player huh?  :D

Against Shane Larkin he can look like Jordan.
