Wow.......finally something good from the POB camp!

Well it was a nice play but POB didn't do anything spectacular.Comment

Patrick has played poorly so far in the summer league. But he had a much better game last night in Golden State's last game. See the last paragraph. He also had 7 personal fouls.--
Note that Nate Funk played 28 minutes for the Warriors and was 4-5 from 3-point and scored 14 points.Comment

Why is POB still struggling at this level after a full year of playing pro ball? This does not bode well for his long term future in the NBA, IMO. These guys in the D-League are "tomato-cans". He should be putting up a near double-double by now.
My observations:
* He is getting enough minutes to make a difference. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that he is (making a difference).
* His number of shots and Offensive rebounds are woeful. This tells me he is not playing aggressive enough on the Offensive end. He needs to be an animal; have the attitude that he owns that ball when it's within five feet of him.
* His Defensive rebounding and shot blocking is strong. He needs to translate this effort/aggressiveness to the other end.
POB needs to realize that his NBA future is now! Needs to get more selfish and realize that he must create his own shot when he gets the ball and needs to be a Rodman-like beast on the offensive boards. I believe that the NBA is too talented today for a one-way player (defense), and that the rules are skewed to keep guys in the league who can do it at both ends. If POB does not show more on the "O" end I'm afraid he may be playing in another league in a year or two.
GO POB!!! The BU nation believes in you! Sometimes you just gotta stand up and say "I'm not gonna take it any more!" Get selfish, get the ball, score, and shut up your critics!
