According to Joe Freeman's twitter: Batum: "He said you’re not just a guy who plays defense and stands in the corner now. You’ve got to bring it and be the guy every night."
McMillan tried to turn him into James Jones. He's been stuck in that corner since coming into the League.
Sarge? Suppress his players? Never! So refreshing to see Batum, get the ball, out top actually! And actually have plays run for him, even ISO's run for him. That would have been next to impossible under Nate's Regime. Roy's right about Batum though, he's the man now, Batum was showing shades of KD during the Memphis game. We have to see more of that if we want to win next year.
