Wally's Solid Play

Wally's play recently is best described by one word; solid.

He hasn't been turning it over a lot, or at all. That's supposedly one of his weaknesses, which is why I mentioned it. Turnovers means loss of possession and ultimately means a chance that the other team scores, which we don't want.

He was 2-3 at the unfortunate and stupid loss at the Celtics (yes I'm a Cavs fan and a Celtics hater, congrats on learning this) and 2-5 during today's game vs. the Celtics. It shows that Wally is reliable, and possibly more reliable than people make him out to be.

I seriously think there are times where Wally is wide-open and he doesn't get the ball and times where they just don't trust Wally with the ball and don't let him do his thing; you can't be a good team unless you make fair and balanced use of everybody. I'm not saying he should get 14 points a game-- even if he can, naturally that means other people will get less points and the point of this team is to work together to win.

If you want to win, you have to play with all-around efficiency which is really hard. It's something we're lacking just a tiny bit lately; just a tiny bit. That's the difference between us having the record we have now, having the record of the Pistons, and having a perfect record (that'd be nice, wouldn't it be?)

Later.
