Swish works really hard on D, comes over for the double, patrolls the paint and then commits a sloppy foul on AP to pick up his 3rd.
Needs to stop with the sloppy fouls.

7-10 FG, 3-6 3P, 1-1 FT.
60% of his shots are threes and he's 6'6, like 230 and has explosive hops. At least muscle us in the post, you tool...
Back to this:
If he didn't shoot them at such a high clip I might agree, but if he is knocking them down, keep shooting them I say.

This game, sure, and yeah, he's shooting over 40% this season, but for God's sake, he is a waste of flesh. If he was going to play like this, he should have been born 6'7 and 210 pounds, not 6'6 and built around the same size as 'Melo...

He does post up - and is quite good at it. He uses steps backs and fade away's really well and is quite good at back his man down. Sure, he doesn't use it as much as I might like, but we need his outside shooting more. Crash usually posts, Swish's outside J spreads the floor and opens things up.
The real problem with him in the post is if he puts the ball on the floor and he gets doubled quickly. That can become ugly.

He was a PF at M-State, he BETTER know how to post up... if I was his coach, I'd kick his ass with a big cane every time he took a long shot that wasn't warranted... Frankly, I'd prefer Jason in the post over Wallace, especially given Wallace's propensity for injury.
EDIT: Hmm, more Okafor and some threes from Felton (I hate you, Raymond!!).

To Felts defense. We have an idiot as a coach.
Crash is done for the night so instead of playing Swish at the 3, Hammer at the 2 and leaving Felts at the point, he plays two PG's and plonks Felts at the 2.
