Hawkins has arrived

[Huskybass]

Much more assertive recently, great plays on both ends of the floor. Now a bona fide star.

 

[GHSWolverines]

And what about newton? Being more assertive the last 2 games

I love how hawkins is playing so many minutes. Need to keep him in to keep the pressure on.

Looked confident putting the ball on the floor and attacking the rim.

I think he is leading the conference in scoring now at 18.2 PPG in conference play (12 games). He's been on a roll the past five games at 23+ PPG.

Hopkins at 17.8 through 11
Soriano at 17.5 through 11.

 

[MJKI]

Scoring at all the levels, with creativity at the rack. A dynamite pull up game with no conscious too, and then clutch from three and the line. Kid has made himself into a bonafide lottery pick the last few games

Hawkins arrived a while back. This is the ascension. He is working his way toward a banner in Gampel.

The board needs to moderate its highs and its lows, because I checked, and it turns out that we played Depaul tonight.

Hawkins had a nice game, but it was Depaul.

I mean he did have 26 in the second half against Xavier. I don’t think the opponent matters at this point. He’s a flame thrower

Nice try muntz! He’s actually played pretty well recently. They played Xavier last game!

Love his shot and release.
There’s only one “Sweetness” in the history of sports nicknames but every time Hawkins shoots I think of of “sweet” his shot is and WP always enters my mind when I think or say it.

Keep feeding him the ball and let him score !

You should watch one of these games sometimes.

If you had watched this one, you would have seen Hawkins make at least three next level plays. They would have been great plays against Vassar. The fact he is doing this stuff in the Big East speaks to his remarkable ability.

Obvious strawman is obvious.

 

[Incursio007]

His willingness to drive to the rack has helped take his offense to that next level. I’m actually surprised to see this level of improvement mid season. Makes defending him much harder - plus he’s an underrated passer. Keep it up!

 

[HailUConn]

Beast awakened! Not just settle for shots, relentlessly attacking the rims and drawing fouls

 

[UCLJ0211]

His recent ascension has coincided with the Ray Allen visit a few weeks ago. Definitely a correlation there if you ask me.

Yes, your opinion is a house made of straw.

You tried to dismiss the the obvious sensational play of Hawkins by citing the opposition. The things he was doing had nothing to do with the opponent. It had to do with his immense talent. How blind can you be.

 

[CTBasketball]

His utilization of head fakes and quick steps has opened up his game. Love to see it.
