I agree he's a warrior, he played through all kinds of pain last year and presumably this year too. But a whole bunch of us see an obvious lack of intensity in his game, a lack of "battle" for a better word, when the going got tougher. Will next year show a resurgence? We all better hope so. He's got great hands and seemingly enough game sense to make a difference. So... go out there and make a difference! He failed to do that for Feb, Mar, and April.

I had to do a quick double take to make sure we were talking about the same guy until I looked up the definition of "warrior"
war·ri·or
/ˈwôrēər/
noun
noun: warrior; plural noun: warriors; noun: warrior pose; plural noun: warrior poses
1.
(especially in former times) a brave or experienced soldier or fighter.
synonyms: fighter, soldier, fighting man, serviceman, combatant
"fearsome warriors"
2.
any of a number of standing poses in yoga in which the legs are held apart and the arms are stretched outwards.
"when you return to downward dog after the first round, add warrior poses I and II"
I guess you are right.
