Actually Walker's ball handling got Pierce much better % shots...I say he
goes 5 pts., below last seasons average..

screamed about with Paul during the past couple of years and especially in
the playoffs. I think part of the problem then was fear of never getting the
ball back from Antoine. I think part of the problem now is trying to figure
out his own role. He's not Antoine, for good and evil, and I think partially
from trying to take over some of Antoine's role (for which he's really not
suited - a different game and personality), partially from the other changes
with the team, he's trying to do too much. That's screwing up his own game
and frustrating him and when that happens he responds by forcing things. You
can practically FEEL the frustration.  He'll get over it. it's only 5 games
into the season and about 2 weeks after the trade, on top of the other
changes.
