Message: [QUOTE="Chief00, post: 4438724, member: 11108"] He’s had surgery on a finger just weeks ago and missed some time. He was like +33 in a recent game while playing. Last night he was second in assists with 5 and contributed 4 rebounds. But, I agree his offense needs to and should improve. However, the biggest things this team needs from Andre are defensive intensity from multiple positions, rebounding and a push the ball in transition mindset. This isn’t First Night anymore, these will be wars ahead! I have been very careful to say and reiterate that on this team guys need to know what the team needs from them and deliver that. From Andre, it is the things I mentioned above. I also quite frankly don’t underestimate the importance of his intensity and the contagious nature of it throughout the team. I think some opponents are almost paralyzed by it. In the next two games we will need the intensity more than ever. Bottom-line, he is a captain of an undefeated team, doing what it takes to win. He will get the rust out. [/QUOTE]
