Powe, Andy and Hickson...all>>>Jamison. It's ashame this guy gets a lot more minutes than Verajou.
18 points on 23 shots is hardly a thing to brag about. At least he didn't have his usual 3 to 4 turnovers tonight.
For one, Andy is better when he doesn't play a lot of minutes a game.. Andy always gives 100% when on the floor so when he's tired, he's not as effective. I think you've noticed that Andy has been brilliant lately, which ironically, has come when his minutes have been cut a little.. With Andy it's quality of play over quantity.. Mike Brown actually touched on this after the Knicks game..
And seriously, get off the hate train. Antawn has made you look like a dumbass. The dude is giving us 18-20 points a night. consistent scoring from the PF spot is great for a change.
Some people will find anything to bitch about though, and you're no different than the guys you complain about. But 18 points on 23 shots? That's about par for the course when it comes to volume shooters like Kobe and Melo.. Antawn has always been a volume shooter. He shoots around 45%, so it's not that far off.
How about his rebounding though? Nice addition. And defensively he's actually been playing pretty well. He's a knowledgeable guy and has a high IQ for the game.. He's picking up on the system and he's still getting adjusted with these guys.
