Wright who? Jefferson Deserves Some Credit

[Universe]

With everyone astounded by the play of Antione Wright, we are really forgetting about the play of Richard Jefferson. The man is scoring 25 PPG on above 500 shootingand most of all, scoring when we need it.</p>

His total when he led the team without Kidd and before Carter was 22 PPG as our main scorer and now with less shots, is putting more points on the board. Crazy IMO.</p>

Ofcourse Wright could have an article or two but I've yet to see one article about the play of Richard this year. Does anyone think he can keep similar numbers up all year long or is this just a fade.</p>

I'm a believer, RJ has been waiting for the stars to line up, he's looking to have a career year. Carter is under no pressure, and can get us over the hump when we need him (FYI I like Carter as a second option). </P>
RJ is very, very efficient and gets better looks at the basket.</P>

Wright is a nice surprise, he's got his swagger on.

RJ has been outstanding. I love watching him this season.</p>

This is what we've been waiting for out of RJ. Alot of efficient scoring. Rebounding. Getting to the line. Defending. Not turning the ball over frequently.</p>

Still, alot of this (and Antoine's success) is probably because of the new offense.</p>

It's ironic because we've been waiting a great deal of time for him to bust out, and now that he has, VC is playing like crap. Can we get these guys to play at an elite level, at the same time? Think of how dangerous it would make us.</p>

Know what you're saying. But also, most winning teams get that way by having one or 2 or 3player(s) pick up the team one night(s) and other player(s) take their turn the next time. Not every cylinder needs to hit at the same time to have a powerful engine. (you may quote me ;-) )</p>

Actually I think thats the mentality we've had for so long, that we think its acceptable. Our problem is consistency, the fact that not everyone shows up on a given night. Thats what's keeping us from being the Suns, Spurs, et al of the league; those guys show up every night. Think about it, when you think about the Suns or the Spurs you know what you're getting. There's no doubt that everyone shows up and plays to a high level.</p>

When we go on our end-of-the-season playoff push we're in the same light. We know Vince will come out and get 25+,5,5. We know Kidd will get his triple double, etc. When that happens we're deadly, and you hear that from the analysts.</p>
