Scoop is actually showing a lot of improvement, which has helped us run some potent offense. Scoop's only taken 3 shots so far, and he has wasted very little time and wasted few possessions this game. Melo, Triche, Joseph, and Waiters all have way more misses and used possessions (which is good, that is how our offense ought to function). Credit to Scoop.

He isn't pounding the ball. Instead, Scoop's made made several quick passes within the flow of the offense, simply moving the ball. He doesn't have an official assist yet, but who cares. He has assisted this team's growth on offense: he had to reduce his usage, which is a very difficult thing to do. The sort of solid ball movement and team play we have seen tonight is [I]way[/I] more important than points and assists piled up in an inefficient manner.

In most games, some of Scoops shots will fall. He will be well placed on some run outs and fast breaks for assists and points. Scoop will get his counting stats. The only really important question with Scoop, is how many possessions will he waste, and how much time will he waste pounding the ball when we should be moving the ball. IMO, the answers to both of these questions are looking much improved.

Glad to see he is having fun and cheering on MCW and his teammates.
