He pointed out that RJ was being tentative, dancing around with the ball, when seams appeared. You can get away with that in college, but you have to be more decisive in the NBA. He pointed to Brazzers, who was effective going to the hole despite so-so athleticism. He doesn't hesitate, he just goes strong. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

Thanks, phone is running slow, hard to watch, but I agree that Barrett is going to have to make quicker decisions. Believe when he knows some of the tendencies of his teammates, and the players he will be going up against (scouting them), things will get easier. The fact that he didnt get phased by the poor start, and has been gradually improving speaks to his drive. |

I honestly think that RJ was just rusty and pressing the first two games. His rebounding has been consistent the whole summer league. His free throw shooting has been much better. His chemistry with Mitch is something t look forward to. he has show the ability to the go the hole pretty well, even going to his right the past couple games. I know there are some that want him to be more explosive but I have never been a huge believer in explosiveness always making you more effective. I think RJ is crafty in his approach. Iggy is really making me excited. If he becomes another 2nd round steal like Mitch that is tremendous. I liked what I saw from Knox. Yes he can be out of control sometimes and his shot selection especially from 3 can be annoying sometimes but I think he is gonna have a good 2nd year.

I was truly scared he was going to be so shy and closed that it was gonna affect his development but its really great to see him enjoy himself out there, have fun and feel so confident about who he is. Definitely one of the stories that could go under the radar but whatever the Knicks decided to do with him has really paid of. Knicks_Fan

You can also work on not signaling your intentions. Back a long time ago when I used to practice Jiu jitsu we used to practice throwing a first punch (not for power) but to merely make contact unblocked. And key things were not flinching, or tightening a muscle, looking a certain way etc. so that the opponent could anticipate your strike and block it. there are analogies to be made in hoops in taking a big first step to get your opponent on your hip (5)(5)

Like the introductions to a championship fight. Watching Fall dunk flat footed was something else. Please dont develop a vertical! Looking forward to seeing matchup vs. KP. KP is faster, but he really hasnt faced many players of this height and reach. Dont know if Tacko can block 3s like Mitch though. |

good ball movement to start!
Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL
So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree
