    That's why I'm saying he should study his tapes. Buck wasn't exactly a giant of a PF (was barely taller than Clyde). But he was a solid PF. Couldn't really dribble to save his life though.

    Is BG really a "tapes" kind of guy though? Wasn't he just a hustle player? I really want to see Robinson develop a post game. If he should watch anyone, it should be Zach. He's quick like Zach, he just needs to develop a nice little 10-12 footer and a decent first step move to get to the hole.

    Either way, he just needs some work. The tools are there.

    But I loved when Buck would get the ball down around the bucket, take a power dribble, them rip the ball through the rim.

    Brian had good footwork, and good smarts.

    It's really annoying, because everyone likes to bring him up in every game.

    "There's the guy that has been traded two times already. The former 5th pick. He must suck. blah blah blah."

    Caught the tail end of the game on TV. I taped it so I can watch it again tomorrow. One thing I did notice was that the Blazer D looked different from last year. Much more aggressive.

    Also impressed with Will. Much more composed out there. I still think he has the potential to be a "complete" Sg. He does a little of everything.

    You should have seen the first half before you make that comment about will

    What photographer thought that this would be a great pose for an intimidating basketball player?

    That pass to Antonio Harvey was classic.

    Damn. That doesn't sound good. He looked very composed at the end. Hit clutch free throws as well. I do see the box score has him with 5 To's. Not good. But 10 rebounds is nice.

    I do take it with a grain of salt since we had damn near 40 turnovers... Everyone was out of control in that first half.

    He's just not built for heavy minutes right now. I am hoping he can this season though because I think we may have issues with Matthews. He just doesn't look good so far:
