RE: Rahim..

Actually Walker was not assigned to Abdur Rahim.  Rahim was the
responsibility of Battie and Blount for most of the game.  The few times
Walker did cover him, he did a decent job.  The centers could not deal
with the pick and pop between Terry and Rahim just as they have failed
to do all season.  As well, Rahim was beating Battie down court at the
end of the game.

Hmm Hmm.

Well from the recent matchups I expect to see Sharif at the All-Star
game 
over 
Walker. He is alot more athletic and takes good advantage of it... 

He simply abused Walker on the blocks...and took advantage of his lack
of 
hustle
to beat him down the court on the break... Alot of folks said that Rahim
was 
a "loser" and lacked competitive fire... I am not so sure of that.

Walker seems to restrict his fire to the offensive side of things, and
likes 
the half court cept when he is bringing up the ball. It wasn't quite the
evil 
Toine last night
but the lack of hustle is a big concern.
