He's made a couple cuts to get open for passes, which is really what he should concentrate on. But let's not forget his flaws after 7 minutes on the floor.
I'm not casting my vote for All-Star, just saying the Lion on the court so far is very different from the Lion of years past, in a mostly good way! Credit where it is due.
Our D has been good, not just passable, but actually good. DWill gave some good minutes on both ends of the floor. Nothing not to like so far, everyone is playing hard.

I am impressed. It is all about focus for this team. They have shown the ability to make impressive runs in both games. But our D tonight has really got us going.
I never thought I would see the wolves shoot less than 40% and less then 30% on threes, and lead OkC by 20 at the half.
All about defense, protecting the ball (only 3 turnovers) and dominating the boards. Keep up the intensity and unleash some shooting by Kevin Martin in the second half.
