from the sidelines. I brought this up previously, and yesterday, I saw DD one time dribbling the ball and looking to the sideline with the off-hand palm up, as if asking, "What should I do?" I think that really messes up a player's flow for the game, letting the game come to you. What with having to get your instructions from coach each time (unless coach is doing something else, then you are on your own. But then he'll probably yell at you later and say "how come you didn't look at me to give you instructions?"). Seems like a messed up system. or at the very least, a system that DD is struggling with. And then when he messes up, it mucks up his confidence and then it's pretty much downhill from there.
