They have no killer instinct, no nasty, and is waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too soft. You can see it in our FT attempts. We prefer to shoot jumpers than create contact and get to the FT line.

What a soft team. The last few plays showed that. Al Jefferson chucking up a prayer instead of taking Love to the rack... Hayward diving out of the way so he couldn't impede Ridnour's drive, and then no one wanting to step up and block his shot.

This is one of the most concerning things to me.

Not only are the vets mostly screwing the pooch (so why not screw this season and go with the young guys? We're losing anyway!) but no one other than Earl/Raja plays with any nasty.
 
This is why I often cringe when I hear fans say things like, "_______________ seems like a Jazz type of player."
 
Hopefully Burks and Kanter develop that level of Nasty shown by Raja and Earl.

I think there's a good chance. Once Kanter feels like he has the right to become more assertive (he's earning it and recognizes his rook status), we'll see what others have said about him ... that he'll have punches thrown at him. He plays hard, but he also gets under people's skin .. we haven't seen that yet, but will.

I'd love to see Kanter see a punch coming at him and drop his head to an angle so they punch the crown of his forehead. hardest part of the body and there is a good chance they break their hand. Then You step forward onto the front part of one of their feet. Throw a palm strike to the chin forcing their head back and exposing them from neck to groin. Plus standing on that foot keep control of them. Then just pick your target.

Takes like 2 seconds total and the guy is out like a light or rolling on the floor in pain vomiting. People will think twice about throwing a jab at you that is for sure.

I do no t drink coffee. But you have to admit that is a dam effective technique and you can take down a guy pretty much any size with that.
