Carl Landry is rusty

Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee reports:

When it was relayed to Carl Landry that his coach said he wasn’t the “real” Landry at this point of training camp, the fourth-year forward agreed.

“It’s not,” Landry said. “I’m still struggling, still don’t have my bounce. And that’s why there’s preseason.”

After being effective after joining the Kings in the Kevin Martin trade in February, Landry hasn’t been the same player after almost two weeks of camp. He hasn’t looked as quick or explosive around the basket.

Landry spends a lot of time after every practice working on his footwork and offense. Kings coach Paul Westphal described Landry as “rusty” a week ago.
