1. 22 turnovers
2. prince posting our entire team up in the first
3. wallace playing at 50%
4. nazr invisible again and benched for entire second half
5. tyrus benched in favor of ups
6. bigs not rotating on defense
7. 22 TURNOVERS!!!
8. giving up 32 in the first quarter
1. We would not have 22 turnovers if our point guard was able to get into the lane and create easy shots for everyone else. When you're not aggressive, everyone stands around and becomes "slow-brained" A quick thinking aggressive point guard wills his team to make quicker decisions, like moving without the ball where you're getting into position to either score or set up another teammate. One of the reasons why Chris Paul is so great, is his aggressiveness which leads to a chain reaction where other players suddenly pick up their pace.
2.Prince hurt us, but he only ended up with 14 points 4 rebs while a crappy Wallace ended up with 13-5
3.He hurt us I admit that, especially on one sequence I think it was in the second when he just lazily jogged down the court watching the Pistons get an easy layup. That I thought was the most pathetic showing on defense in this game. But again, this goes back to DJ or whoever is at the point...slow unaggressive play by your point leads to your teammates standing around watching and falling asleep.
4.He is what he is, not a starter and he's 80 years old
5.He is what he is, not a starter
6.Boris was awful in this game
7.Sorry but I can't blame Jax, he was the only aggressive player out there all night. If everyone played with his aggressiveness we would have easily won this game
8.Horrible, but again, this goes back to being aggressive and really wanting it on each possession. Too much sloppiness and standing around. A good point guard would have taken it upon himself to up the tempo and make things happen
9.There was a reason why LB yanked DJ, he's trying to light a fire in his lame sluggish ass.
