Anybody know what Jimmer did wrong to be close to his 2nd DNP in 2 games? I'm certain some teams in this league could use him.
He crapped in Smart's oatmeal.

The starters all sat when they down 12 or so points. The bench played better than the starters did. I am not say that is the justifies the coaches rotation but let's not pretend that the starters were great and is coach Smart had just played them more the game would be a lot closer. It probably would be worse.
still think its a good thing the bench played so long in the 2nd.....

Well, that certainly explains it. I feel much better now.He crapped in Smart's oatmeal.
The perimeter defense has been deplorable. To be fair, however, there are, maybe, three teams in the entire league that have the personnel to effectively guard a stretch 4 like Anderson.
When it comes to three-point shooting, Anderson is better than Dirk Nowitzki. And let's not pretend that Anderson has played his entire career in New Orleans; teams couldn't guard him in Orlando, either.The Hornet's are 13-27 - Anderson is not Dirk Nowitzki

The oddity is that right about this time in Jimmer's career we were talking of having him start. Must be we see something different than Smart does.

Refresh my memory, how often have Johnson and Anderson been on the court at the same time?with people like James Johnson on our team, we ARE one of those teams that should be able to guard it
It's not a dig at Anderson. It's more that this should NOT a hard team to defend against.
I wonder if Jimmer is hurt.

Well, the problem, from my point of view, is that there aren't nearly enough players in the NBA who want to play defense for it's own sake. Nearly everybody in the league, but especially on this team, if they're not scoring, can't be arsed to put in the effort on the other end.It's not a dig at Anderson. It's more that this should NOT a hard team to defend against.
