Called it on Paul

[cd021]

Congratulations, he had one solid offensive performance. Everything I said still stands and he's still a net negative on that side of the ball though.

He does have the second highest offensive rating on the team and in the third most minutes. That doesn't necessarily mean he is a major part of that but he certainly hasn't hurt the offense when he is on the floor.

I liked his game entering this season and have continued to be impressed with him. While he has existentially stopped shooting 3's (Playing with Aldridge and Gasol taking 3's has minimized the need) and has become more aggressive at getting his own shot.

Such a nice pick up..

Hope he doesn't fall out of the rotation come playoff like every in' first year role player who finds a perfect niche before he inexplicably hits the the Pop postseason wall...

Honestly Big 10 players have a better than even chance of becoming platoon guys. They are tough and generally well coached. They know how to do what players from other conferences sometimes don't know how to do: grind. They know the nitty-gritty and how to dig deep for Ws.

Posted about pauls defence recently. The spurs are really high on him too. Missed the gist of the report during the game telecast but they were comparing him to Bruce bowens D. They differ by length, the quick lateral feet movment & ability to stay in front is very bowen like though . Shooting & passing wise i think hes better.
