Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.
jangles86 wrote:Can someone please tell me why Wall can't play with the same passing flair he did in the all star rookie game last year where broke the record for most assists ever? Is it because he doesn't trust his teammates and he thinks he needs to do it himself? Or has he evolved his game into a player who thinks he needs to score to win?
If I recall right, last year the coaching staff told wall they would fine him for every tantrum he throws, and every time he shows a bad attitude? Did I imagine this? What happened to this? Wall, to me, looks like he's been spoiled for a long time and struggles against adversity. Im not sure whether he is a true alpha male leader, that can put a team on his back and lead from the front. Or is he a worker that needs to be led.
I know there was a interrupted pre season and all, but does John Wall really have determination and courage to be a winner and not let personal stats and glory hinder this goal? Or is he going the way of the player that promises so much his whole career and can never deliver.
He has the best physical tools for his position since Magic Johnson. Is he mentally capable of reaching this potential?.....right now I have to say no.

His teammates can't hit shots. Plain and simple. Only NY can hit an open J, and he isn't properly utilized off the pass--he's an iso player.
