[QUOTE="Ryllini, post: 1245221, member: 10826"] I was looking at those scouting reports and specifically with regards to AJ. There was a play in the first half against McKendre, where he caught the ball behind the 3 point line and he made a terrific pump fake and got right to the rim. I don't necessarily remember the result of the play, I think he was fouled and resulted in free throws, but that pump fake just got me giddy. Last year that would've been a rushed, flat footed shot and a brick, but this year development resulted in a pump fake, dribble drive, and foul shots. We have some very physical wings, who obviously can fill it up from deep, but to put the onus on defenses by attacking the rim will and should be a huge asset to this team going forward, as this team can get up the floor in a hurry. A small thing, but I see you AJ. [/QUOTE]
