Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 1964241, member: 837"] Agreed. I feel like the issue Lydon is having is one of identity. You've got a completely different team, obviously, with a makeup that went from defense-first/offensively challenged to a bunch of guys who love have the ball in their hands and/or shooting (white/gillon/battle -- not selfish per se but guys who are looking for their own offense). So Lydon is getting fewer touches, ironically, then when he gets it he's mostly on the perimeter b/c this team, as most JB teams do, struggles to feed the post. So he's either shooting a contested three or trying to drive on a smaller player to the basket. It's a rough stretch for him right now. Have to feel like he'll figure it out, but for everyone who is going to say 'you're crazy, lydon is incredible' the bottom line is it's been ugly so far. [/QUOTE]
