i like what coach says about wes initially, working on ball handling and attacking the basket, add defense and aggressiveness and we've got a future extemely good player

- No one is harder on himself than Luke. He thought he had the shot, but Westbrook was too quick.
- No one is harder on himself than Corey (reference to missed free throw).
- Rambis loves Corey's passion, enthusiasm, etc. Corey works his butt off on D, and couldn't have done anything more against Durant on the last defensive play.
- Team needs to get better on defense as individuals and as a team
- Michael Beasley is still young. He is talented and will learn from his mistakes.
- Wes Johnson is improving, especially in the past couple weeks. He should be able to fill up the stat sheet someday.
- Wins against Utah/Toronto won't be easy, but he feels they match up well.

Thanks for the recap steve, ive pretty much exceeded my limit for the month and my comp is slowwwwwwwwwww.
Good to hear the boys have been hard on themselves, it shows they care, and they will learn from their mistakes.

I feel like Rambis, Kahn, and Wes all feels as though he is Pippen in the making. Hope so.

I think Wes is going to be really good. His jumper and defense are already above average, and he's shown that he can be a nice passer, and at times he can get to the rim even with his shaky handles. Once he can get a "handle" on things(;)) then I think he's going to be a great player.
