Message: [QUOTE="homunculus, post: 5181689, member: 3170"] Agreed on Ball. Great to see It’s not a coincidence that Ross is often on the court when Reed and Mahaney come in. Love Hass and Sam but they are less offensive threats and not remarkably better on D honestly. Though I did love Samson’s drive to the hoop. Earlier in the season the offense tended to ground to a crawl when TRjr, AM and JR came in but lately it’s been more dynamic as Reed and Mahaney have come more into their own, and Ross appears to have recognized his role a little better. We’re finally starting to get a glimpse of what Hurley originally saw in starting Mahaney. Alex is working harder than he ever had to before because defenses are keying on him. He’s literally [I]fighting[/I] as he runs around every screen and guys just shove and hold him. I think it’s throwing off his timing, and has been noted, he’s probably playing too many minutes. Mr Wonderful said it and I think the same, nobody is more excited for Liam to come back than Alex. I don’t know why progress has been so painfully gradual this season, but it is definitely there and trending in the right direction. Progress is never linear. I don’t know what happened for the first 15 minutes of this game, they genuinely looked hung over, and I mean literally (not for nothing but there are a lot of bugs going around right now) - but the second half shows we can still be good, and that’s still without Liam, and Alex having another terrible shooting night.
