[...] The Intensity of Chris Douglas-Roberts: Mark Ginocchio of Nets Are Scorching talks about how CDR is almost obsessed with proving his doubters wrong. He doesn’t care about his own numbers; Douglas-Roberts cares about his team’s standing. And that team right now is 0-12. [...]

@Bobbo — dude, Michael Beasley had more character concerns than CDR.

‘He lasted til #40 because he was seen as selfish and self-obsessed.’

Which is different from every other NBA player HOW?

Good point Alex… I was at first a little concerned about some of the stuff CDR was saying and doing – but I guess when your team is off to an 0-12 start, and you still care as much as he, it’s good sign. But yes, the maturity has to come with it at some point.

You could actually hear him saying the, “we’re losing,” part if you were watching the game on YES.

I was wondering who said that, so thanks for this.

As for the subject, intensity is great. Combining it with composure makes it effective though, no?

Of course that’s something that will come with time, but with high energy young guys like that…they tend to get a little too jumpy at times.

As I hope I made clear in the post, we very much want him Tiger.

Loving his play this year. He’s working harder than anyone else on the team. Feel horrible for him.
