Damn it! I'm older than him and he's still miles and miles better than me at playing basketball :/

Ricky is like a stripper. You'll see bits and pieces from time to time, but you'll never get the whole thing.

Well, maybe if we pay enough we get the whole thing? :wink:

I know you probably thought that was a clever analogy, but it doesn't work with Ricky.

as soon as he evolves physically, maybe this post-season, i guess he would be a much better player.

Just him having a solid weight lifting program would give him enough strength to finish around the rim and be able to create contact to nullify shot blockers.

If he does that one thing this summer I think his fg % tick up to a solid range (one that is easily sustainable as well).

does the 2 for 14, 0 for 5 from 3 shooting the past 2 games mean he sucks at shooting again?
Despite the past 2 games, he's nonetheless well above 40% for the month, so I think I'll go with the "its just a little airborne, its still good its still good" stage of optimism

Shooting 8 fga per game it really doesn't matter. As long as he's top 10 in assists and steals and doesn't play hero ball in the forth (Not sure if it's Adelman talking or myself) he should be more than ok.

I'd even go as far as to say as long as the team wins with him on the court, his scoring numbers are completely insignificant. Treating individual statistics like they mean more than a W is spreading like cancer lately, leading to people playing for stats more than for success (like rather anticipating the rebound than challenge the shot and box out).

I'm new btw.. Wolves' fan from Germany.
