Dion with a great game tonight.

Came off the bench and led OKC in scoring with 25 pts on 7 for 10 shooting, 4 out of 5 of that was from 3 point range, and 7 for 7 at the FT line.

Got to love ESPN, no mention of that in Highlights or a highlight from Dion.

I clicked on the game with 15 seconds left in first half. I see Dion with the ball at the top of the key, just in place dibbling low waiting for the clock to wind down, with a defender right on him, when it was about 6 seconds he drives and crosses up the defender and had a crazy lay in. Made me smile.
 
Dion has crazy talent and from time to time there are games where that becomes apparent. It's hard to wrap your head around the fact that he didn't start when he wore Orange and now he plays a similar role as a pro. It's beginning to look like he has found a good organization to be with and he will have the opportunity to get a very lucrative contract moving forward.
 
He still has too many games where he is a non-factor. He is too talented to not have some impact on every game.

Some games it's just going to happen. Other then the top 25-50 players, the rest are of close to equal talent. And that's not to mention he is coming of the bench playing on a team where he might be the 5th best player, at best.
 
his jump shot lacks the consistency needed to be a great player. that being said, hes going to carve himself out a very lucrative nba career.
