I like the assists count. He needs to do that to help take the heat off of him in the post next season. Chris Webber, though Iโ€™m not I big fan, is very good at quickly recognizing the double team and dishing to the open man. Curt needs to develop this skill to make himself better.

this team isnโ€™t playing as serious defense as they did at the start of the games. They went from 40 steals to 14. Does someone else notice that their lack of intensity is showing on the defensive side of the ball?

Dax, are you watching the games? Perhaps the competition has gotten better at protecting the ball. Nigeria did have 20 turnovers. Expecting 40 steals a game is a little much, wouldn't ya think?

BTW, Curt didnโ€™t start.
