If he would just try to make the simple play that would happen immediately.

He also took way to many midrange shots in game 1, they were simply going in. I like his aggressiveness, but his shot selection has to improve majorly or he'll be a net minus. I cringe every time he goes up for a contested 20 footer, that's the worst shot you can possibly take. He took 11 of them in the first two games, mostly unassisted.
I think he needs to settle in a bit, at times he tried to do to much. Turnovers tell the story. I'd like to see that he shoots less than Dirk in every game.
