Therein lies the problem. Our only two guys who can legitimately play any PG are Telfair and Jaric. Of the two, Jaric is probably a little better at feeding the post, but neither is consistently good in that regard. And a lot of our other guys--McCants and Smith in particular--can go long spells sometimes without remembering there are other players on their team.
But Jefferson is going to have to become a better passer. I think that's even worse than his defense at the moment. He's just so easy to frustrate with double-teams. I'm amazed at how he can't identify and pass to the right person. Usually bad passers seem unwilling. Jefferson looks to me to be willing, but simply bad--slow to identify the correct person, and not accurate when he passes. It's odd. I can't remember seeing someone like that.
