Destino Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I'll say it again, for John Wall to complete his transition into a star player his consistency scoring has to improve dramatically. Right now the rest of the team scores the ball and sometimes Wall scores well and others he's doesn't. The teams best player can't be so hot and cold. Don't think I'm doubting John, I'm not. I'm a fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) Look how much room they give Austin. Our returners have men in their face soon as they touch the ball. LOL oops wrong thread Edited December 7, 2014 by Warhead36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Why do I get the feeling that if I looked I'd find pictures of some of these Wizards at the club last night? lol I'm not hating I'd be out if I was that age every now and then too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticksboi05 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I'd rather Paul miss the big shots now and make them come playoff time. Truthfully I was hoping Rasual Butler would get the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skin'emAlive Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 It all came down to the fact that pierce missed the shot, Bradley didn't. Or if you want to go back further, butler missed an easy layup. Either way, team ( beal specifically) came out flat in the first half. Oh well. I figured we would drop one of the two to Boston.

StillUnknown Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 We couldn't do anything right first quarter, couldn't hit a shot during the first half. Good effort on the comeback, get them tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheItalianStallion Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 May be lack of sleep. I know some people who get like that when they are perpetually tired.  I've noticed it every game, though. If he is consistently getting less sleep than he should be for the past couple months, that's very unhealthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonArtest15 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 We shot ourselves in the feet one too many times to blame anything on officiating. We had our chances at the end of the game and couldn't capitalize. Even down 17 or whatever it was, I had a feeling that this team would make a run to make things interesting. Too bad it wasn't like the Lakers game the other night. Those are the breaks...

I'm a fan. this is my feeling as well for John Wall to be a superstar, he needs to average 22-24 ppg. He needs to take over games when his teams need it and put the ball in the basket. Its just the truth. Some of you guys can pretend it doesnt matter or deny it, but its just the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 this is my feeling as well for John Wall to be a superstar, he needs to average 22-24 ppg. He needs to take over games when his teams need it and put the ball in the basket. Its just the truth. Some of you guys can pretend it doesnt matter or deny it, but its just the truth. Wall is a true PG. He doesn't need to average 22-24 PPG to have superstar caliber impact. It's about him running the offense and generating scoring for the offense as a whole. If he has a 17 point 14 assist game, then he is generating so many more points then he would if he scored 22-24 with way fewer assists. High volume assists has more of a net positive impact on the team as a whole than high volume scoring. Getting other players involved in scoring has a wide ranging positive effect on team performance. It gets guys invested in the game and creates good offensive flow that can sustain itself. It gets the competing hard on both ends. That's what matters. Not volume scoring. A five assist quarter from Wall where he's breaking down the defense in a variety of ways has a better net effect than a 15 point quarter from Durant or Melo or Kobe. A 19 & 9 PG with Wall's usage rate, minutes player, and defensive performance is absolutely a superstar. We made the second round of the playoffs as a five seed last season and we're 13 & 6 with no second AS caliber player during that span. That's a testament to Wall's individual quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Also Wall has demonstrated the ability to score when the rest of the team is struggling and/or score against set defenses in crunch time numerous times. He's had plenty of 12+ point quarters this season alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
