One improvement for each player... 

Post#1 » by RudyGay22 » Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:09 pm

Conley - jumpshot
Mayo - in game athleticism
Gay - ball handling
Milicic - low post offense
Gasol - conditioning

Lowry - shooting
Warrick - strength
Arthur - rebounding


As a team, I'm hoping they put more emphasis on defense. There is no reason a team as athletic as them should not be able to at least trap and press, if not play solid overall D. Maybe put Gasol on bench and start Arthur? Then just run and gun, have Warrick come in off bench for a true small ball lineup and hope they play tighter D?

Are you serious when you say you want Walker to "improve", i hope that he gets ZERO playing time so to not steal minutes from the youngsters at the SF/PF spots..
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

DT- I'm not sure where I see anyone seeks for Walker to "improve" in any of the posts.
