    He came up with 17 big ones tonight. He is going to be a hell of a scorer. He gets so much elevation on his shot, it's almost unblockable. If he's in an offense where he gets more touches, he averages 16+ as a rookie. He is capable of scoring close to 25 a night down the line. Delonte had a career-high 12 assists tonight, so that's 11 straight games w/ 5+ assists.Paul came up big (as usual). 33 points, including a big 4th quarter. Not to mention 12 rebounds.Ryan Gomes being his quiet self. double-digit points, yet goes unnoticed.

    Yeah Gerald looked great last night dogmaThat shot he had in the corner where he was dribbling back in forth being chased around was pretty funny, you can tell he's still a young guy by some of his mechanics but man is that kid athletic. The way he gets his shot off so quick is so similar to the way T-Mac. People across the NBA have no idea how good this kid will be.

There games are quite similar. You're right, he just needs a better feel for things, and that will come with PT, so things are looking up.

    Kid can sure score. He needs time to develop an all-around game though. I hope he has the work ethic to do because he can fill it up and quick.

    I really hope this was enough to earn him a regular spot in the rotation next season. I would like to see him playing atleast 20mpg next season. That is probably a bit of a streach though.

    Well, it depends on two things.1.) What moves we make this summer. We may make a big deal in which we lose more players than we get and it opens up more rotation.2.) How Wally's knee responds.

    I hope the C's not make any huge deals in the offseason unless in involves Wally or Raef.

    Stepped up? His team was out of the playoffs and he got more minutes to show himself off.
