livingston is really starting to get on my nerves. the kid needs to put on some muscle and develop into a small forward because he sure as hell aint a point guard. i like his one v one scoring ability from mid range and post, but those are small forward skills. just because he can dribble and pass doesnt make him a point guard. he doesnt get anyone easy baskets in the halfcourt. he cant break down the defense and penetrate and kick and he cant make them pay by hitting long jumpers. so defenses pack it in vs him and force him to become an iso guy. thats his only option.

My thoughts exactly. Honestly, he should only play to get DK some rest or when DJ's shot isn't falling at all. He can give some nice scoring streaks, but the offense seems so stagnant when he's in the game.

I was expecting we weren't going to get blown out by the Celtics. Playing these top tier teams was a good indicator to show where we're at and what we need to improve. At least i didn't come back to a blowout.
