IMO, Jamal had all star talent coming into this league but for whatever reason, could not adjust to organized ball. I don't care who he plays for or what system he is in, he needs to learn basketball fundamentals that surprisly, he hasn't grasp to this point in his career. The guy is a eight year pro at this point still trying to find his game.

Barring any major injuries, this team will be exciting and pesky. I don't know how many wins that will translate to but I'll enjoy watching this team play this system.

LOL, Carter runs pass Crawford for the follow up jam.

i know u don't like Jamal but do we have any G's that can defend on the perimeter other than Q & Mardy (before Duhon got here that is)

My problem with Jamal is he is capable of playing better defense. The guy doesn't like contact. Instead of getting up on his man he backs off completely.

have u been watching our perimeter defense over the past few years? it's not like Jamal's the only guy who's letting guys walk into the lane for easy buckets... not that i'm trying to make excuses for him but he is what he is... not sure why people expect him to play better defense... this is why we need a shotblocker in the worst way imaginable.

D'Antoni singled out Jamal's defense so I say he represents the biggest problem at this point with the perimeter defense. If you had Ewing and Hakeem in their prime both playing defense in the post they couldn't keep stopping Jamal's man.

jamal is not capable of playing better defense b/c we've never seen him play defense at all. he's capable of getting hot and hitting shots when he gets to control the ball. that's all we've seen him do. that's not a bad thing but his role is defined and being a starter is not part of it.

I disagree Lenny, Brown and Isiah all expressed the fact that Jamal has natural athlethic ability that allow for him to be better defensively. But you are right that he has not focus on it so far.

That's what Jamal is capable of doing. Getting up in a player's face with his long hands. Breen stop reading my posts.

Duhon is proving to be a pretty nice fit for this offense too.

IMO, Duhon is comfortable playing more with Marbury and Nate than Crawford. Don't know why but he seems to be at his best in the 3 guard rotation with those two.
