I am very concerned with one aspect of Kenny's game which surfaced twice.
He had a couple of fast break numbers situations and did not give the ball
up at all.  The second time, I think he had Pierce and Battie on the wings
on a 3 on 1 and he chose to force a shot himself.

In a game where the C's are struggling to score points, give the rock up to
one of them for a jam please.  I am starting to worry just a bit about him
after that.  He is a smart enough point guard to know how to handle
advantages but it seemed as if he thought the ref would call a foul no
matter what to send him to the line.
