Message: [QUOTE="arbitragegls, post: 65318, member: 302"] [B]SURPRISE: FRONT COURT MAY BE GOOD[/B]...of course it is [B]Melo, Keita and Christmas[/B] from a view of what may become a terrific front line...more mobile; better defense; with some offense thrown in... [B]GOOD AND BAD[/B]...[B]Triche[/B] was both positive and negative...more aggressive, took the shots..unfortunately missed the shots...but that may/may not be long term trend...we will need him to score to win...and he is one of the leaders in the Ziggy award for top scorer [B]HAS NOT CHANGED: [/B]all the athletic ability, and [B]Dion[/B] still screams its me; its I...he is not a team player...he is overly confident; he will win it on his own because he needs to be the eye of the storm...he dribbles into 2 or 3 defenders and he hasnt shown a better jump shot...hopefully not a continued trend [B]CONCERNED[/B]: [B]KJ[/B]'S health and mental state...will he return to two years ago or has he lost some bounce and mobility with knees and also lost some confidence...did not see KJ of old even with 11 pts in a few minutes [B]That-a- boy[/B]: [B]Scoop[/B] appeared to be a PG for a change...he passed, didnt dribble continuously, and shot the ball okay. Still want him to look and choose Triche as first option once in a while...but just maybe Scoop has matured into a PG role [B]WHAT HAVE WE FOUND[/B]: [B]MCW AND COONEY[/B]...backcourt going to be good in the future...maybe the best ever! [B]WHAT WE HAVE LOST: SUTHERLAND [/B]with all the athleticism...just seems not to have improved... Still have another exhibition and them some supposedly easier competition to start out the season...some of the above could change for the better or worse over the next 4-6 games. [/QUOTE]
