as soon as dude typed D'Andre Jordan "wants the ball like any great player" I closed the tab. Unreliable narrator.

Nash goes from being a productive pg to a spot up jump shooter. Just watch a lakers game breh please just one game and see how selfish/ballhog kobe is.

I watch lots of Laker games, Nash is a shell of himself. shyt goes sour when Nash dominates the ball and tries to do him. Dunno how that can be Kobe's fault. Nash is still a decent scorer thankfully, but he's been a disappointment overall cuz we've all been hoping for some kinda PG for Kobe to defer playmaking duties to.

Why else would we go from Fisher, to Sessions, to Nash? If the team was content with Kobe as playmaker on offense it wouldn't even matter who the PG is but this isn't Phil or the Triangle. Why should Kobe play Shooting Guard and Point Guard when his coaches offense doesn't call for that?

I'm not sure why people haven't noticed this on their own though. I could tell by their body language that they probably don't really like playing with each other. CP3 has to yell at this nikka Blake to be in the right spots, and Blake just strolls around like he's mad that Paul is directing him every play.

I remember there was a thread about him saying that Blake & DJ hate playing with CP3 and everybody shytted on him on here for saying that. I didn't notice that last season at all, but I have noticed it since after the all star break. It really became apparent during crunch time against the Pacers this week. CP3 did not give the ball to Blake, DJ, or any of the bigs in the whole 4th quarter. Plus, it seemed like he became depressed when D-West was posting up in crunch time and killing it in crunch time. During the last minute when D-West was guarding CP3, it looked like D-West was guarding his little brother, because CP3 seemed to back down and became out of control and throw up a terrible shot. Its apparent that CP3 misses playing with D-West or a player of his caliber that he can dump the ball to that can create his own shot without CP3 doing all the work.

Havent seen Jordan make any progress in his offensive game why should he get the ball

I hate some of these young ni99as. Think they entitled.

To be honest, he did show some progression in a post game in pre-season and during the start of the season. He just doesn't get enough touches. He's averaging 5.9 attempts per game and around half of them are put-back opportunities and another percentage are alley-oops.

I don't think he'll ever be able to reach his potential with Paul and Griffin.

Jordan should be getting more touches..would easily be a 18 and 10 guy in an offense that featured him...

Another big problem for the team is that they're almost too deep in a sense, and that's where their problems stem from. Not enough touches to go around. Plus Paul has virtually made little effort to change his game.

What is he going to change his gm to? He's running the Chris Paul system. Vinny even calls it the Chris Paul offense. Del Negro is the problem.

My thing is, CP3 should not be allowed to pick the next coach. I want a coach to come in and install a system with more movement.
