Message: [QUOTE="BillSU, post: 4117976, member: 6809"] Agreed. He's got to add 20 lbs of muscle he gets thrown around too often. And the ball gets pulled out of his hands. If he gets to the NBA he'll be a bench player at best. He has to stay and work on his game - speed, moves in the low post, develop at least some kind of dependable shot whether basic hook or turn around put back. Work on his best skill, his leap, and anticipate where the ball is going off the rim, (Gerry can do this in practice shooting not just from the three but in close over and over and over), eventually he will get to know the balls direction. Get a somewhat antagonistic attitude beneath the basket but not so much as to foul constantly, but don't let the opponent beat you. He does this plus the weight he gets better and people look more closely. If he stays and does the work it will better for him. The key words being, STAY AND PUT IN THE WORK. [/QUOTE]
