Message: [QUOTE="Storrs South, post: 2511115, member: 7275"] Couple that with being a pest on defense. He's not just a 3 and D as we saw in highlight reel last night, but also someone who can create for himself and others. He's essentially found a way to make all of his skills from his time at UConn translatable to the NBA game. It took time and opportunity to make it happen, but it came together. We all knew when he was traded that the Blazers were great at developing players but I don't know if any of us knew this kind of breakout would ever come (at least to this degree). Hopefully he gets a big payday and keeps it going in a more primary role for another team. I think in another thread it was mentioned that Kemba could team up with Andre in Detroit via a trade, what about Shabazz to the Pistons? They played together 2011-12 (yes that huge letdown of a season with 3 future NBA players on the roster), but would be cool to see them team up again and that would make every Hornets-Pistons game a treat for UConn fans.
