Again with several people taking other posters comments in the absolute worst possible light - ugh... I don't think anyone suddenly thinks MW is a cancer or bad player. Did I miss somebody actually post such comments? Or have people said things like:
Didn't like his comment 'my team needs to learn to play with me again' (Clearly a poor choice of words - does anyone disagree?)
Staff rushed him back (I mean who can argue that he SHOULD have played more than 25mins his FIRST game back?)
Offense has become more stagnant since he's been back leading to more forced and wild shots (does anyone disagree?)
Nico seems to have lost his swagger we need him to play like he did when MW was out (again does anyone disagree?)
Another comment that bear revisiting:
Kinnon should have been given more time on the floor earlier this year to get comfortable and the green light for open shots (does anyone disagree?)
A couple of my own:
Brett struggles with athletic bigs and the Timbukto kid fits the bill. (does anyone disagree?) BB will be fine.
LL tons of talent but now officially fits the Neal Curry mold = A complete and total enigma.
MW will be fine and very very good again he just needs another 6 months for a true full recovery.
Now please tell me what is wrong with any of these comments. If fans don't discuss in depth what is happening with their team are they really fans or casual observers?

Meant to include these earlier.
Many comments about "team chemistry' which IMO has definitely suffered since MWs return (does anyone disagree?) Seems only natural that when you put a player back in the rotation, especially a PG, there is going to be an adjustment period.
I and a few others cautioned everyone when MW was about to return to not expect too much. It takes real time to return to form with this type of injury. Remember even the slightest of change in his mechanics will impact his shot. Seems we've been seeing this the last two games.
Saints will be fine IF they believe in themselves and are enough of a team to work through this adjustment as a team.
