Some pretty high praise. Well deserved.

I wondered that about Taylor, too.  Is he fully recovered from his ankle surgery?  He doesn't seem to have the bounce on his jumper, and he doesn't seem to have the confidence in traffic that he did last year.

He has confidence in himself, he just doesn't have confidence in his team.  He's less dangerous because he doesn't have his "Mark Chmura" to dump it off to when he gets in trouble.

How about he's overrated and the great defense DWilson played.  Those 2 things might account for his poor performance.

There was a play later in the game.  Taylor had the ball, driving outside the 3 point line.  DWill falls.  Taylor was wide open and passed up the shot.  I thought that was an odd decision.

Taylor's struggles are because of his supporting cast. He just doesn't have that impact player like John Leuer to kick it out too. Simple as that
