Just a question.  Since I was unable to see the game and my son was at the game, he told me that Harrison, until the end of the game, played poorly.  What's the deal with him?  Is he pressing too much? Not into it?  What's up with him.  It would seem that he would have to be in top form for this team to meet or exceed expectations?

Was lethargic. Didn't seem interested. At one point in the 2nd. half coach sat him down for an extended period. To his credit he returned and took charge. When we need him he knows he's our money guy. And his overall game has improved. He's boarding and assisting more then he did before. Need him to stay focused when he's on the court.

 I wouldn't read to much into it either way. He's been in a little offensive slump and seems to be frustrated. Lavin sat him for an extended period of time in the second half ( a little too long, IMO) but he came back and was the team leader he needs to be.

 Some posters alluded to Lavin ripping him at one point, but I don't remember seeing that.

Couldn't see from TV but ripping someone is not Lavin's style.

He had to sit, he was playing like crap up to that point

His numbers dipped because the ball isn't in his hands as much since Branch took the point '

Most of his missed shots though rimmed in and out though

His shot will start falling and I fully expect him to average close to 20 points the rest of the way

Need him to come up big next 2 games win or lose
