I know what type of talent Chandler is but if we dont "bend the tree while it's young" he will not improve. I do not want him to become a wasted talent like Lavor Postell. I see Chandler as a Danny Granger type player. If you send a rookie out there and let him do whatever he wants he will not be a disciplined basketball player.

You guys are insane. The careers of Bippity10 and Basketballjones are just starting. Bip is young and will make many more mistakes as the season goes on. That's what young players do. Let's just hope Bip develops.

so you are implying that whenever he takes a poor shot that it is never addressed. My guess is that it is we are just not there to hear it. We will know if his shot selection gets better. But based on what we see, I really don't see his shot selection as an issue.

Bip is right again. DANG IT! I can't believe that we can't allow some reasonable time for these kids to develop! Chan and Gallo are really just starting out and it's gonna take time. What we should be glad about is that we have MDA to develop these guys. He knows the game and how to play it the right way. I'm happy about that. They've got an entire season to be groomed and with lot's of minutes they'll learn a lot and grow.

Chandler is a finisher. He definitely would benefit from playing with a pure point guard who can get him the ball and allow him to do what he does best. Finish! Similar to Marion with Nash, Chanlder has the atheltuic ability to get out on the break and cut to the basket. Unfortunately, Nate nor Duhon have the instincts or the ability to see a play or two ahead of the action th really help Chanlder excell. He's developed a nice spin move, turn around jumper in the lanbe but thats it. His jumper is improving but still inconsistant. Agian, he needs someone to set the table for him.

Marbury and Marion looked pretty good together. I'm just throwing it out there
