    And we need Leonard rebounding, because his outlet passes are recently Walton-esque. Seriously. He lays these long Hail Mary passes exactly where the player needs them on the break. It's awesome. You play him at PF with Kaman at C, and you've got a real fast-breaking unit.

    When I watch Leonard I imagine him with four-five more years of maturity. Kind of the difference between 20 year old Jermaine and 25 year old Jermaine. Meyers is behind where Jermaine was at the same age, but I think it's been established he started learning to be a big man later.

    Meyers will be a late bloomer, but bloom he will.

    I talked about how having a great post player like LA to practice against has been good for our other bigs. Free land keeps his feet on the ground and doesn't get faked into the air easily,

    The biggest problem folks have had with Leonard is his hair and the fact that he's been shaving for 5 years and cut himself both times
