Fiz ironically had his two best games against Dallas but I still need to seen him start implementing more plays especially for his guardsIs this another way of saying Randle needs less touches?
Or at least he needs to start using his passing ability which is actually pretty good

I agree too .. every time Randle bring up the ball I get flash backs of loss headed our way.
And Randle has never been a good passer or dribbler, grabbing offensive-rebound and scoring on broken plays were Randle's handle.

He threw 2 balls DIRECTLY out of bounds last night.
I noticed when Smith is in, Smith handles the ball. Randle less so.
If that is Frank deferring (likely) then he MUST STOP and take the ball out of Randle's hands. If that is coaching then FIZ needs to change it.

Randle does not take the ball up every time. When he does its important to see it half full or half empty. This is a player being thrust into a major role. Prime time is not an overnight event. When he draws the double, when he passes out, when he breaks down the defense.......Its pretty. When he over does it and makes mistakes, its ugly. Look for progress. Morris can be infuriating as well at times. He too is playing a major role he has not been doing before. These are our closers for now.
I was cringing last night like most of you but low and behold Frank made game changing defense moves and was clutch at the line. He had a three that would have sealed the game earlier. But I'll take what he gave us. In my perfect world Dennis and Frank are back court, RJ at the wing, and Randle/Mitch down low. I like Knox but don't know if he is a three or a stretch 4 in the future. He is 20, Im ok with not knowing. In my perfect world the future has issues of "Who is better" regarding the roster. I hope we draft a franchise player and continue to load up on potential. At some point potential becomes talent.
Long way to go, but the team rose to the occasion and swept the evil KP. Speaking of which, his putback dunk was awesome!!!! His low post game is still not there. He is bigger for sure and will score. Until he can play with his back to the basket he will be limited in crunch time.
