The Bobcats want their offense to run through forward Boris Diaw more.

Diaw has been up-and-down this season and many feel as though he is the key to Charlotte's playoff hopes.

"He sees so much that sometimes he tries to have everybody thinking on the same page he is. Sometimes guys don't think as rapidly as he does," coach Larry Brown said of Diaw's recent turnovers. "For us to be successful, the ball has to go through him a lot - a lot more than it has been."

Brown also wants to see Diaw take open shots.

"He's got to shoot when he's open," Brown said. "You're every bit as selfish passing up a good shot as taking a bad shot."
