http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/229896/Rasheed-Working-With-Josh-Smith-On-Post-Moves-Veteran-Leadership I know Sheed developed a bit in his late career, but anyone else find this funny? We couldn't get him in the post and he certainly exhibited nothing that you would call veteran leadership. Give Josh Smith's personality, I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
True. I read the article and Sheed talks about getting Smith to shoot 16-18' jumpers more. Maybe he mean high post moves?
I wish we'd have had him when Nate was our coach. I mean, all those times we all were like, "Nate, your team is getting F'd by the officials. Why don't you stick up for them?" Sheed have wasted no time. He'd have murdered someone, if not coach himself.
Tone on Courtside the other night (paraphrased): "Rasheed came to camp in great shape one year and I said, wow you look good, what did you do?" Sheed's response, "I started drinking Heineken Light."
He and Walton were the biggest pure talents we ever had. I hope Sheed succeeds Coach K as the next Olympic Head Coach.
