    This post was before today's game - bizarre that pointing out a guy is tired and for good reason: long road trip and b2b is impacting his performance. Miami went at him on every one of their end of game 4th quarter possessions.

    He also missed a bunch of open 3's against Orlnado despite the other scoring - it happens with him. He's been playing hard on defense

    ..... nice shot but clearly not at the peak of his jump (picture the bottom of the ball 2-3 inches above the rim above the guy with the white visor's head), and can see why he doesn't do the one handed cup dunk except rarely with his not large hands.

    He was on a late game heater last night. What did he score, 15 in the fourth?

    AR threw some superstar level phenomenal passes tonight …. most of them to LeBron. They’re a great combo.

    What I am wondering is... how did his agent know, before the season, that AR's gonna morph into this.

    one possibility was that it was just agent talk and that agents are always making wild claims that sometimes come true?

    I don’t think so. I’ve attributed it to knowing how hard he was working to do what it took to make another leap up with his game, starting with the weight work to become stronger for handling the contact better.
