Deron Williams the next few games..... 

Post#1 » by GP » Fri Feb 1, 2008 7:57 am

When I heard that Deron didn't make the allstar team, I was kind of ecstatic. Why? Because Deron is one of those players that seems to play better with a chip on his shoulder. So that in mind I think the few games before the allstar game will be interesting to see if Deron lifts his game. The Hornets game vs paul will be crazier, I am sure Deron has heard the accolades of paul (like always), that plus his apparent "snub" (while paul is being considered as league MVP), should provide him with some extra motivation.

I imagine Deron will kick it into another gear. Last year after the snub he dominated the Cavs and the Jazz went 8-2 for the month. The only 2 games we lost was when Deron didn't play cause of injuries.

Also, DWill will get a big chance to play with that chip on his shoulder on Monday versus Chrissy and his Hornets. I would love to see Deron beat up on the "MVP."

I don't care what Deron does to Paul as long as we win the game.

Yeah, but if Deron whoops on Paul, than we WILL win the game.

Let's hope he stays focussed. There were games earlier this year where he tried to do it all, and made some silly mistakes and screwed up a lot of our offence. If he remembers to be a PG instead of an all-star, look out.

Hopefully he doesn't play like he did against the Wizards. That was ugly. Not quite like his performance after he was snubbed last year. I will admit he finished off strong though.

Even though he had a crappy first half, he came back and ended up having a decent night overall. He ended up with 12 assists, and 11 points. Even though he had a horrible amount of TO's, on 1 came in the second half. He just needs to quit trying so hard...
