Yes your going to lose focus when your power forward takes all the jump shots and total FG's.It's crazy because people always credit the defense from patterson and Bowen and how they do such a tuff job on peja not gettin the ball.I don't believe that stuff one bit.you have to look how the game is being played.Last game against the spurs webber had a do the the little things mentality,Which was rebound set guy's up and DEFENSE.He did a heck of a job on tim duncan defensively and took him out of his game,But last night I think from the last 5 games Webb has played his mentality was geared to play OFFENSE,and I think coming into the Game that was his approach.He didn't have the mentality of WAR and that is what he and the whole squad brought to the court the last game against the spurs.
The kings tried to outscore the spurs last night.The spurs denied the ball on both sides they jump and smothered the delivery's from the high post.When they saw this they folded and gave up quit playing.The mental focus in the last 5 games with the kings was a one on one Based game and even when they passsed the ball it was how the SUNS move the ball with 5 guys standing on the perimeter which is not motion princeton OFFENSE.But one on one jump shot no rebound basketball.
If the kings don't start moving the ball offensively they are going to be in trouble when they play the goo TEAMS.Peja's game has taken a Big declined since the trade for mobley.When doug was on the floor it wasn't just more touches it was how he got the ball in scoring positions the high percentage of looks.Now there are no back door looks and the lack of pass first mentality has hurt the Team.Those back door looks open pejas game up to not allow a Bruce Bowen to crowd peja on the perimeter and open up looks for other people.
Now it's all ONE ON ONE Basketball no movement no second options and when you play a defensive minded TEAM like the spurs you will suffer when you don't move the ball and Bodies.When you play Teams like that you must utilize some low post sets to stop the extreme ball denial.
