    One is on our team, so we give a F about him. One isn't, so I don't. Booker can score. Really well.

    I am very critical of Russell. I'm very critical of all our players though. I hold them to a high standard.

    What I liked about his last game (offensively speaking):

    The jumper wasn't falling, so he started attacking the basket. I love that; the league trend is 3's, but I love when players decide to attack and dominate free-throw line extended down. With his length, he should be a very good to elite finisher.

    Brandon seems to make all the 'little plays' that don't show up in box scores to help your team win games. He makes winning plays. I'm very excited about him going forward...

    So much progress made with his transition to the pros. He rarely hesitates now but rather always finds something on offense to do that is aggressive himself to score or useful for someone else to score. Keeps adding to his repertoire. Digging his back to the basket progression as well as going to the rack and becoming more and more confident to shoot the J with increasing % success.

    His aggressiveness has improved so much. Doesn't look like the same player.

    His court vision is the best of our young guys. He make quick reads and good passes. He able to get to the basket prestty readily now. Still needs to gets stronger and work on his shot over the summer but I believe he can be the Most improved player next year. This kid is a keeper.

    Oh my goodness that long stride. He picked up his dribble like one step past the free throw line and took off from behind the dotted line, that was ridiculous.
