The only guy who I can't find fault with through our first two games is Humph...kudos to him for still bringing it after all the crap he went through.

Deron should get some flack for the way he's played too. He did help bring us back against Washington, but he also turned the ball over 4 times, including late in the game which helped keep the Wizards in it, and he took 11 3s (he did hit 4 of them, which is a decent percentage, but still, that's too much).

And he was nonexistent against Atlanta. He couldn't finish inside, he wasn't finding teammates, and he turned the ball over 6 times (in limited action).

Williams has never been a guy who took super good care of the ball, but 5 TOpg is too much (yes, I realize it's a very small sample size).

Not worried about the turnovers. Shortened season, plus new players (and ones who can't catch a pass, like Shelden) means turnovers. Deron has 10 TOs over 2 games, but look at the stats of other playmakers out there.

Westbrook, Rondo, Nash are up there too (Nash surprisingly, since he's a low TO guy). Curry, Kobe, Rose are all avg 4 tos per game. He'll settle down eventually. But keep in mind, the worse his supporting cast is, the worse his passing/to numbers will be as well.

The defenses are loading up on him because he's the only one who can dribble
