Okafor's body language

[W_HAMILTON]

-= original quote snipped =-
Meks 2 OT stat line:10 minutes 3 fouls, 1 turnover, 0 blocks, 0 steals, 1 rebound, 0 assists, shot 1-2 2pt fg, 1-2 ft, TOT 3 points

(1) If those are supposed to be his 1st + 2nd OT numbers -- and I assume they are, since you have him at 10 minutes -- your numbers are off.

(2) That's fine and dandy, till you look at everyone's stats for the 2 OTs:

Mohammed: 1 foul

Wallace: 1 foul, 1 turnover, 0 blocks, 0 steals, 4 rebounds, 0 assists, 2-6 FG, 0-1 FT, 5 points

Richardson: 2 fouls, 1 turnover, 0 blocks, 0 steals, 1 rebound, 2 assists, 0-2 FG, 0 points

McInnis: 1 foul

Carroll: 0 blocks, 0 steals, 1 rebound, 0 assists, 2-4 FG, 5 points

Felton: 0 blocks, 0 steals, 1 rebound, 0 assists, 0-1 FG, 0 points

*****************************************

Now, his numbers compared to everyone else's ain't exactly horrendous, now are they? My numbers might not be exact either since I'm at work, but they're pretty damn close. No one shined in the OTs, which is probably why we lost. The only "positives" I see from any of those players is Wallace's rebounding, and Carroll's scoring (Wallace also scored 5pts, but shot worse, and three of those points came off that meaningless 3pter at the end).

But Hamilton, don't you know that he's garbage and we ought to get SOMETHING, ANYTHING for him while we can, before the rest of the league catches wind of this?

[Ballings7]

He's in a bit of a slump. What would you expect him to do? Skip down the court? Smile and giggle during time outs?

That would be a million times worse.

His body language is restrained because:

A) He's never been an overly animated sort of guy

B) He really cares and hes bothered by this slump

Agreed, and played real well tonight

I'd rather not see him walk like Kenyon Martin during a struggle. I think he has the worst walk in the league.
