“It’s us (the players). A lot of guys don’t know Maverick basketball. Maverick basketball is being a winner, not being comfortable losing. And guys coming from different situations may be comfortable losing.

“So we have to find out who’s not comfortable losing and find a way to start winning. Once we do that, we’ll feel a lot better around here. But right now, it’s a down year right now.”

It happens on every bad team. Someone will speak up and accuse other players of not caring as much as they do. Jjb said it last year in Minnie.

Sign of a losing, divided team.

Kind of sweet revenge for all those wasted seasons and crappy supporting casts...

I don't know how it can be overlooked. Marion can't space the floor because he can't shoot it. He can't iso his bigger defender and take him so whats the point in him at the 4?

Shawn only looks bad because there are no better options out there. There isn't a single wing guy that can post up, none. When dirk/kaman isn't out there it is even worse.

Shawn will settle down once less offense is required by him.

I don't think that's the only reason he looks bad. He just can't shoot unless it's an unconventional runner or something odd. He hurts the spacing terribly. Why would anyone honor him outside 14 feet? Teams have to love him getting the mid to outside shot. He is a defense/hustle/garbage/rebounder. Not a guy you need out there with little other offense and no shooters. I'm not blaming Shawn for what he is, I just don't like the way RC is using him currently. I also don't think Dirk and Kaman are on the floor together enough.
