Gerald Wallace?
How's he doing lately? Since he had that scary fall, he seems to have been pretty quiet. He used to be a threat for a triple-double most nights, but not any more. Is this because of Okafor's emergence and Morrison's need for the ball? Is he struggling?

Re: Gerald Wallace?
I really don't think Gerald has not played great ball in most of our games.Some of it may have to do with that big fall he took and a lot more of it with the amount of zone we've been playing.He just hasn't impacted the games the way you expect him to.
In my opinion playing so much zone has really disrupted the entire identity of this team and more specifically Gerald Wallace,BK and Felton.Those guys are very good at gambling for steals and overplaying the passing lanes.So far this year we really don't seem to know who we are.

A threat? Really? Double double, yes. He's never had more than 8 in any other category, though.

I don't think theres a problem with Morrison shooting so much its more in that when we are on defense we can't get steals, because of having to play zone with Morrison in, to start the fastbreak and that is the way Wallace scores best

Re: Gerald Wallace?
How has his defense been? He's not putting up good defensive statistics, relative to last season.

Re: Gerald Wallace?
The entire team has failed to adapt to the new defensive schemes.Last year we had a gambling defense that forced a lot of turnovers and we tried to win games by 1)scoring off our opponents turnovers and 2)taking care of the ball so that 1) didn't happen to us.So far this year we've not not done either.We just look lethargic and lost when we play that matchup zone and I think you saw what Wally World did to Morrison.He just can not guard any veteran scorer so far.

Re: Gerald Wallace?
Yeah. Morrison is stagnant on defense and doesn't move his feet well. So is Gerald's poor defensive numbers coming from a lack of team defense, where he can concentrate more on steals rather than worrying about Morrison covering his man properly?

Re: Gerald Wallace?
Gerald doesn't need me to make excuses for him...I just don't think he's played the way he did last year in most of our games.After the big fall in the Pacers game he didn't seem to be the same to me,but he looked very good in the Spurs game.He is an extremely agressive player and when he doesn't play agressively he's not the same player.

Re: Gerald Wallace?
I think there is something wrong with him after seeing him in tonights game it's almost as if hes hesitant to drive now and is just settling for the jumper and that isn't his game at all
