Big Baby is clearly in worse shape now than he was in training camp. He looks like he has gained about 10-15 lbs. from camp time, and I hope it's not because he is discouraged about losing minutes to Leon Powe (who is undoubtedly the better and more consistent player). I think it's clear that Baby loves the game and is in it to play, not to make a quick buck. But he needs to come into next season in better shape, and maintain that weight for an entire season. Obviously that's tough for a rookie who's minutes are sporadic and with the practice time as limited as ever, so I'll give him a pass for now... but I hope he learns to maintain a respectable weight at some point. He needs to work out with Perk this summer.
Baby is in pretty poor shape, so I defitely agree that he needs to hang out with Perk a little more. As far as losing minutes to Powe, I don't think that's the case, the guy would be in worse shape. All in all, I'm very happy Powe is getting his minutes!
