I do not believe the sky is falling and this team has zero talent, like you apparently do.'
I do not believe that everything that I hear that contradicts my preconception is a lie and everything that supports it is a truth, as you apparently do.
I do think Crawford is one of this leagues better scorers and has never played for a coach or on a team that could come close to raising him to his ability level, though part of the fault certainly lies with Jamal himself. I do not think Houston or Miller are good comparisons for Jamal but obviously Walsh isnt suggesting this, hes just using players who had break out years as examples from his past. You should be able to understand that.
I think Q's troubles have been principally health related and secondarily team related. I think Q's shooting is confidence based first and system based second. I think both will improve with D'Antoni. I think he is a very solid rebounder and defender as well as a good post scorer and leader. I think we will get a good season from Q this year if he can keep weight off his back.
Clear?
And if I remember correctly, walsh had good things to say about jamal, even while he was GM for the pacers. I like jamal, and am aware of his flaws and I can see why walsh likes him... Q has been a dissapointment, but the guy has been through a lot mentally(murder of his brother) and physically. I give him a pass somewhat because he has put in a full effort on defesne....
for me, I am prepared for some losing, and won't be suprised if we are decent, but I am willing to wait and see what happens, I like some of our young guys, so all is not lost with me..
