Nice to see Fab having fun playing the game

Fab is having a blast out there.

He put a big grin on JB's face today and has been fueling Hop as well.

Everyone is just so happy seeing him playing well and just as importantly having fun doing so.

So many 7 footers get forced into the game to get a free ride. It becomes work to the player and they never enjoy it. I think Fab is finally starting to enjoy it and is making it his passion. I'm sure playing for his national team worked wonders in this regard. Seeing players take pride in a sport that isn't very popular in their country, but love the game as much as any other.

I hope Brazil is proud of him ... I sure am, and his team is as well.

Love Fab. Unfortunately I think the NBA will as well. He's extremely limited on offense, but that's something he'll learn down the road. Skilled big guys don't last long in college.

Seems like overall there are more smiles on this team then I can remember in the past- even more than Wes and Andy's team. As has been reported, it seems like everyone geniunely likes each other. But, when they need to, they can bear down and play...did not need to do that today. Was at the game the other night and MCW and KJo were playing horse pregame, guys were horsing around a bit- but still were serious about the warm up. The way it should be.

There is nothing like strapping on the the green, yellow, and blue to motivate a guy.
