Somebody needs to tell Green to give up the ball to the PGs

Post by SDC »

...during fast breaks. that is all. seems like half the time whenever he brings the ball up the court, it leads to turnovers. stop overdribbling.

Tucker does the same. It's annoying.

Was this intended to be its own post?

I was wondering who switched body's with Green last night in the first quarter. He was making all kinds of great passes. I was thinking "who is this guy?' He was starting to get it and improving his game from being only a chucker to a passer too. Then I saw this thread.

I think he is a pretty good passer, and regularly looks for guys down low when he first comes in. Especially if we are already up.

I think he has the rep as a chucker who can get his shot off on anyone, so teams really try to collapse on him when he drives towards the basket. Teammates are open when he drivers and he is starting to get it to them. That will open his game up even more if they start to worry about his passing too.

His passing is pretty good. It's his dribbling and ball handling that is suspect. He continues to insist on bring the ball across halfcourt, often losing the ball for a turnover. He did it again last night.

He took Mori's request for more threads to heart. At least there wasn't another one telling us what he had for dinner last night.

I like that guys seem to be finding Brandan Wright when he's close to the basket. Those are easy buckets that we need.

he is a willing passer. absolutely. and not necessarily ballhandling is his problem but decision making. i just dont trust the ball in his hands for more than 3 seconds is what i'm saying.

meaning, pass it to somebody open if you draw the defense to you.
