Lesson to be learned for Donovan. Next off season he has to skip the world wide media tour and just do what got him here to begin with.

When he said he was going to "lock in" or something with 2 weeks left before the season that got me concerned - like someone cramming for a test .

Still plenty of time to right the ship though. And the effort is there. Maybe even pressing too much .
 
Right now Donovan is a good player but he is not a Super star or even an allstar. He is 137 in per and 17 as SG. He is 74 in RPM and 6 as SG. He needs to play within himself and not act like he is the best player on the court when he isn’t. Rudy is our best player and Favors is second most efficient player. Guards still need to step it up.

Yeah, i stand by what I said. There's NO reason for Mitchell to be taking those horrible 3's that are clearly outside his range and with plenty of time left on the shot clock, other than him wanting to keep his scoring average up. He's hurting the team. If he'd be content to only take good shots, maybe his scoring avg would drop to 18/per, but it would benefit the team.

I see what you are saying about Donovan's erratic play and I agree for the most part.

For the "stat chaser" part of things, I agree with @NAOS. That statement is too harsh and unfair to the situation. Donovan is a good guy and a good teammate. He is settling for long shots when he needs to do a little bit more of what @Saint Cy of JFC and move the ball within the offense. Donovan is trying to make plays to help the team win. I don't think for a second that he's trying to fill the stat sheet. He will grow and evolve within his game to make better plays.
