someone needs to tell McHale that if you let Josh Smith handle the ball, he's gonna jack up dumb shots

at this point i'm not even sure it's Smith's fault. that's just what he does.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Lol whatss uo with you and ariza. He aint the first role player to hit a slump in the history of the league. He still a leader in the association in minutes played
His offense offends me :ld:

He's shooting 36% on the season that is pretty much unprecedented for someone shooting as much as him, this isn't a "slump" right now, those don't last months.

Ariza ain't shyt without Wall. :camby:
It doesn't have much to do with Wall.

He wasn't going to stay hot forever. He's been getting good looks this season with Harden's kickouts and the defensive attention he commands, they just having been falling. Plus Houston have been asking more from him this season, which isn't the most practical thing to do with a role player.

Harden playing one of the few teams that have their big healthy in their recent games and is looking much less effective. Didn't get as many calls today either

Russell's only downfall is that he just doesn't understand when it's time to stop shooting the ball.
It's a bad night, get over it, stick to do everything else, you can.

thats the problem

they're making him do too much

In DC, Trevor had to play D, stand in the corner, and crash the glass. Ariza's technique on his shot is a lot different now than in his last year in NOLA. Which is why his percentages rose along with Wall's ability to drive and kick so easily.

He didn't have to handle the rock, he didn't have to create, or do anything fancy. McHale doesn't recognize this unfortunately.

He should be taking it to the rim. He's been looking funny since tip ball to be honest. Not his usual self. :patrice:
