Dion Waiters time

[jdubs30]

The kid shines when the lights are on. He had his coming out party vs. Marquette in the NCAAs last year; and had a great 2 days in NYC this year. He has the guts to take the last shot and the ability to make it. I thought he was going to take this team far in the tourney; but now with Fab out I think he's going to take it more on himself to perform even better.

He's going to have a Melo/Kemba like tournament. He hates to lose and will not let this team lose. If Kris/Southerland/Fair/Scoop/Triche can hit their jump shots and space the floor it will make us even that much more dangerous.

Dion is taking us to New Orleans.

Welcome, talking heads, bracket changers, and haters alike,

The menu special of the day is a cold heaping of crow!

Prepare to get served b*****!

Hero one day, goat the next.

Those shots he made against Cincy were very tough. If he were to have missed them, people would complain that he is a selfish player. He makes them; he is now Dwayne Waiters.

Well making shots and not making shots usually separates good players from bad players...

A couple months ago I asked if Waiters was the most complete guard in Cuse history. Let's hope that Dion has a great six games.

...within the team concept!

Dion Waiters not Dwayne Wade! He needs to play within himself! Dion sometimes gets in all star game show boat mode and forces stuff! If he can play within himself, distribute and score, I'm all for Neon Dion!

To be honest...my biggest fear, is that Dion thinks he's now Michael Jordan...I'm okay letting him be "the man" after all esle fails, but IMO, it should not be option 1, 2 or 3.

i agree jake.. we have seen him get overconfident at times this season. if dion can use the attention to find the open man he could have a huge impact. i know we need scoop and brandon to play well but when mcw and dion are at the top of their games they are an incredible combo for spurts at g. their length at the top of the zone is menacing and their ability to make plays on the other end just as much.

Seven made threes was a terrific thing, but it doesn't suddenly change his shaky shooting form. He's still at his best when he's getting to the rim and finishing strong. No need to force the jumpers.
