    I never thought he would reach double figures as an average in rebounding. Never felt he cared enough or mattered to him.

    Needless to say, he has wiped those thoughts away.

    What gets me a bit irritated is that after LMA answered that question, and started rebounding better, then his most vocal critics just move into a new weakness of his. Every player has weaknesses, don't they? I don't understand the mindset that rips on a player who many NBA insiders think is not only the best PF in basketball, but also the best big man at this point.

    He's proven to me with this transformation he has made that he will answer every challenge. I have no doubt that there will be a coach and player in the playoffs that will be out to challenge his toughness. I hope they do because I think he will rise.
