I agree. Now it would be seen as a move motivated by hm playing poorly, which is a confidence downer. You could have done it before to "take the pressure off" of him and let him get into game shape.

Yup. It was hearing about Bosh' wanting to try out for us despite long odds that made me keen on drafting him.

Stuck averaging 10 points per game on 57% shooting over the last 7. I like the development. Seems as though he's not forcing it as much these days. 22 assists and only 5 turnovers during the same stretch as well.

Seems to me guy just hits crazy-ass shots. Keep it up.

Ok, I am now comfortable.

This guy is awesome.

It looks like Stuc is developing nicely, and with any luck it doesn't have anything to do with Flip Saunders' input.

SWAMI WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO AND BRING FLIP INTO THIS?

one minor observation: stuckey's starting to mimic tayshaun's annoying habit of putting his hands up to the refs whenever he feels he's been fouled.

I hate that. Quit crying and play the game. Get your ass back on defense and shut your mouth. I hate it when other teams do it and I hate it when we do it. Tay does it nearly every time he drives the lane and doesn't get an easy dunk.

^ Didn't get laid last night?
