prigioni is not all that great but at least he brings an adult and professional attitude to the game.
Really the "ONLY" ... lol okay. How soon do forget before felton went out how he was moving the ball and passing out of the double teams. Who else in the starting lineup can you depend on to create their own or hit a consistent jumper? Brewer? Camby? Tyson? which one??? I believe it's less about his character and more about him thinking he has to carry the load and not trusting the teammates he has at the moment.
We seen with the olympics and the earlier part of the season, with a good supporting cast he has no problem passing the ball.
And Also, those other "superstars" have a legit second option. Who is ours? The closes we have is JR, who comes off the bench.
But let's just ignore the statements of Lin, KD, and Kidd this season and just say he doesn't care about getting others involved because of your observations.
With that said, LATELY I too have been critical and frustrated with him playing hero ball and having a few mental lapses .... but I'm not so blinded by hate that I ignore the winning streak in the beginning and how Melo and the TEAM played together.
