    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Heat rookie Dorrell Wright said he has put on about four pounds of muscle and has noticed a difference in strength during pick-up games with teammates.

    ''Guys on the team are telling me how much stronger they see I'm getting just from backing people down and things like that,'' Wright said.

    Many of his teammates are impressed with the 18-year-old thus far.



    ''He wants to learn and he already has skills most guys his age don't even have,'' guard Damon Jones said. So it's going to be interesting to see how he progresses.''</div><div align="center">Source</div>


    Good to see him adding muscle and preparing for the upcoming season. I doubt it will happen this season but if Dorell Wright can step up this season as SF, play some great D, and land his shots (not jack up shots), then we have the final piece to the puzzle. But I doubt he can handle Tayshaun Prince , Ron Artest, Richard Jefferson, etc. but his team says he's developing fast so who knows [​IMG]

    Wow 4 pounds. I think I lose four pounds every morning and gain it back at night. But hey, if he feels stronger than more power to him. Don't think Dorrell will get much playing time on the playoff hungry team. Just a feeling.

    You should become a professional athlete. I'm guessing you've never seen dorell wright so you don't know that the kid is a tooth pick and adding 4lbs of muscle, for most people (especially him), is a big accomplishment.

    Yeah, really. Adding 4 lbs to his frame is like adding 10 to someone elses...

    I can see him by the end of next offseason being a lot bigger. Bigger than T-Mac, considering he has more drive than Tracy does. When he does get bigger, watch out... I'm telling everyone, this kid's got it. Him and Wade in the backcourt will be NASTY.
