He doesn't seem to alter this game when it's needed and he has the same mind-set if he's going up against a 20-win team or a 60-win team. He needs to understand there are times you take a back-seat and focus on defense and there's times where it's necessary to put up big offensive numbers.

There's absolutely no denying he is gifted. The talent is there, no question. But if he has to learn how to survive on the court. Not playing defense is something that will get you killed. Especially in the playoffs.

IMO, his mentality just has to change.


i agree
