The takes on Samson were fair. We hadn't seen the growth needed offer 4 years to be a starter. People didn't unfairly attack him. His improved free throw shooting all season was great. Clearly he worked hard on that.

He still had a tendency to give up bad folks but we're all giving him credit for putting things together late. Something click. But the hustle he does today was the hustle we were hoping for from the beginning of the season.

I don't see it. Taliek was obviously talented. He played at a crazy pace and needed to settle down on offense. Can't remember specifically but I feel like he always played hard on defense. His major weakness was glaring, he had no jump shot. People unfairly criticized he weakness instead of acknowledging the strengths that he brought. At no point in time could you question his heart and toughness though.

Samson finally learned that he had to leave it all out there on the court over the last 5-10 games. For that he deserves credit and our respect.
