Giving up on him already? Sad.
Sully is one giving up if he doesn't come in camp in shape.
Extra weight is not good athletically, and makes one more prone to injury and overuse injuries.
Sad to see a guy make it to the bigtime and coast. We seen it in AW and now Sully.
Why can't he do both?
Because he is a horrible long range shooter and he shot 28% from that range. He is not a good shooter out there at all. He is our best rebounder and when he shoots the three that goes to pot. You do not see Carlos Boozer shooting them or Humph. They know what they are good at. He should be shooting them now in the summer rather than in season if he is trying to expand his range.
I think him shooting is a direct reflection on his poor conditioning. It is a lazy man's shot for a big. You don't have to run as far down the court because your running from foul line extended instead of the baseline. You also do not have to exert the energy of posting up.
The kid has many talents. But long range is one he has yet to exhibit.
How about if he became an excellent passer from the blocks? What if he added a fewest moves that helped him score an extra basket or two down low? What if he was able to average a couple extra rebounds a game? I think any of those would be way more helpful to the team and toward reaching his potential
I get your gist and agree with 90% of it. But I,for one, think he is already a good passer. I think this is one area he is strong in folks.
