Of course he is worse now with half the shots, minutes etc. I agree if he had a better overall attitude the drop off in production wouldnt have been as great. But at the same time thats what I like about John he has a lot of confidence in himself and truly believes that he is a starter and a star. He wants to win and I bet if we were a playoff team and he still had a reduced role he wouldnt mind because it would be working. But as a proffessional to see your team struggle and feel if you were playing things would be different then how can you blame him. At least he cares unlike KT!
On another note why arent more of you sold on Beno. The guy is stud and a lot like Manu. He is constant energy, good attitude, good team player and playmaker. He is everythin other than overally athletic that you could ask for in a PG. Why dont you guys get that. He needs to be resigned long term. That way we can focus all our attention to the BIGS the backcourt is set with Udrih, Martin, Garcia, Artest.
He's not really that good of a playmaker though. He's okay, but he's really better at scoring. His assist/TO is really "meh", and he doesn't have great court vision. He's a fine scorer and a solid guy to have running your team. But is "solid" good enough? I don't know about that.
