[I]high hopes based on the eye test, [/I]with the numbers catching up. not to be. cv was 33 minutes ([I]senior leadership),[/I] james tyler al and akok were around 25, and josh jalen isiah and brendan were around 20[I].[/I] looking back now, with four of those guys in or around the nba scene (james, josh, cv, and isiah), it don't seem farfetched for me to think that's our best squad in dannys time here so far. cv made me a fan of his, and with those stats shown previously, 18/4/3, 25 minutes per in a pro league, well, [I]if it was easy, everybody could do it, cuz they give you money if you can.[/I] so, like you, love this guy. a winner.[I] [/I] [/QUOTE]
