I hear you. I was not implying he is "weak minded," nor is he "hesitating." If anything, he is not taking enough time.  He has a great stroke from the FT line, and good form on his jumper. He has a great first step off the dribble, gets to the rim, and misses the shot (or gets fouled). The game adjustment, [B]learning[/B] [B]curve[/B] part is taking his time to finish at the rim with touch, instead of rushing up a shot (he shoots too hard at the rim, IMO).  I would like to see him try to dunk everything at the rim. Of course, he wont be able to, but I think it will help as a next step.

I think he is struggling with the mental part of missing all those shots. I am attributing that specific struggle to impacting his confidence. I do [B]not[/B] think he lacks confidence in general or as a personality set. The fact that he keeps shooting points to that. I think he is shooting with even less touch now because of the accumulative impact of all those missses.
