Man, those past three games, he hasan't been relying on his j as much and taking it in and finishing around the rim. that's what I hope he can do more. this road trip should see whats he made out of. against a team with a winning record.

I see him attacking more the rim, he throw a couple of nasty dunks in past games against more powerful guys. He looks like another guy on the court, i think he love to be the "main option" (i'm not sure if he's the main, cause Mathews is doing well).
We need to win this games, to make a confortable distance to 9th seed.
