I know the postseason is not finished yet but I would like to talk about offseason improvements for some C's in this summer.
Marcus Smart - My man Marcus!!!!! I would love him to improve his ball handling skills, his conditioning (without loosing much weight though), his jump shot and post up ability because his frame is way too big to not be use advantage of it. This would enable him to attack the rim more (even though yesterday he attacked the rim way more than the beginning of the season) so that he can get free throws line more where he can improve his percentage . He can watch clips of Dwyane Wade, Andre Miller, Chauncey Billups, Ron Artest, Dennis Johnson,Joe Dumars, Deron Williams and Russell Westbrook. Marcus you are my favorite player! I want you to be like the guy who is in this video below and I really think you can do it because your work ethic is incredible.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nGKgQru5_AAvery Bradley - He has improved constantly each and every year. He will just have to keep develop his mid range shot and his handle so that he can slash to the basket because he has the quickness, agility, athleticism and leaping ability to do it on a regular basis. He can watch clips of Rip Hamilton, Dee Brown and Monta Ellis.
James Young - He has to improve in a lot of things to be a contributor. Firstly, he should learn fundamentals on D, his handles, footwork and has to go to the gym every day to bulk up (by adding 15-20 lbs) so he can play the 3 and 3 more effectively without getting manhandled. These kid has the right tools and talent to be a star but his work ethic will decide his future. I have high expectations from you Jimmy Buckets but you'll have to work hard to be a great player. He should watch clips of Paul Pierce, Joe Johnson, Kobe Bryant and James Harden.
Evan Turner - He should improve his 3pt shot and keep his dribble low.
Kelly Olynyk - He should bulk up and I really think he will get bigger because last year he has improved his upper body. He should improve his lateral quickness. He should watch clips of Dirk, Vlade Divac and Mehmet Okur.
Jared Sullinger - If he wants to be more than a bench player so he can be a solid starter with an average of a double double, he will surely have to loose 40 pounds more so that he will improve his quickness, athleticism, leaping ability, rebounding (his butt his too big that he doesn't need weight to push out opponents) and defensive abilities. In addition, he should work on his shot and is mid range shot is very good at the moment but his 3pt shooting is mediocre at best. He should stay banging out under the basket and the post to get more offensive boards rather than stay more time on the perimeter. He should focus on clips of Kevin Love, David West, Wes Unseld, Moses Malone and Elton Brand.
Tyler Zeller - He should bulk up so that he can bang with bigger opponents and improve his post defense.
You guys might think that these the some players that I listed on the videos might be too good and too difficult to learn from but I think the C's dedication can really motivate them and help them understand more easily.
I hope Pierce will come back and mentor some of this kids and Wallace is useful too for this rule because they both have huge experience in the NBA.
This improvements can also be useful for Danny so that they can be trade assets for the team.
What do you guys want to add for the improvements that our players have to do this summer? What do you think of this post? Did I go too far?
