But the shot selection and selfishness-yes, Paul, selfishness-drives me
nuts. I think it's because it's so easy to control. I'm tired of the
no-talent teammates excuse, because these guys are making open shots. Are
they winning? Sure, but they're winning in spite of Toine's shooting. It's a
real problem in my mind, and one that will become more obvious when
everything else isn't clicking as well as it is now.

That's exactly right. Sure, they were up 20 in the 4th against Denver, but the
shots he was launching made it obvious that he still has major self-control
issues in shot selection. In fact, the situation is worse than it appears to be
because Toine has been making a lot of bad shots so long as they're 3-pointers
(on the flip side, he misses quite a few good shots around the basket).  I
guess one could argue that if he makes a decent % percentage for that type of
shot, then it's a good shot for him, regardless of how it looks to us, but I
don't buy it.
