    Hasn't progressed much if any from last year. Lack of athleticism limits his ceiling.

    i think he looks pretty similar and also pretty good.

    his athleticism DOES limit his ceiling, but that only matters if you were hoping he'd be a star or something. he's a rotation-quality player for a winning team, imo. one of only a few we employ.

    The only reason I want to watch but he gets forgotten in the clutch.

    Ham needs to put his foot down and let this guy make plays in crunch time.

    The price I have to pay to watch HBK is to suffer Brick and RatFink

    I don't know. He routinely gets rebounds I don't expect him to get, often from up high. So... there is some jumping ability there. He just doesn't use it as often. And he is expanded his skills -- that body check attack he does now - very nice.

    It’s great to see his three ball start falling. His shot form has always looked good, it’s looked like they’re gonna go in, but he’s been short a lot like he’s had to adjust to the NBA distance. Added a little strength this summer and they’re finally starting to go in.

    16/4/6 and team high +20 mid-4th.

    Yeah... there were people saying he scrub and only looks good by comparison.

    One thing though for the next offseason -- ball handling under pressure.

    He took over the scoring for a bit until AD came in and closed it out. He was just waving off everyone and scoring, really fun stuff.

    The 15 lbs of solid weight he added has served him very well. :rock:
