Dinwiddie on supposed fatigue: ‘I don’t get tired’

Kenny Atkinson has now voiced —on multiple occasions— a desire for Spencer Dinwiddie to be more aggressive.

It happened earlier this week, and it happened again after Thursday’s practice.

“Spencer’s a heck of a player,” offered Atkinson, always admittedly one of Dinwiddie’s biggest admirers. “I just think he could be more aggressive. We still want you to be top-10 in the league in drives like you’ve been, and that slipped. His driving to the rim I think has slipped. Sometimes I can see that passive mentality, (like) not attacking a close out right away.
