Thats at least 3 shots I have counted for him already...is Buzz loosening the reigns a little?

Don't know about Coobie but it seems like Acker is afraid to shoot; I've seen him pass up a couple open looks.

I agree. I think that the only way Cubes gets his confidence back is to keep on shooting. He even made a crazy shot there earlier.

I like the Cubillan's aggressiveness--even hoisted up a 3. Great job without McNeal.

No offense but if Cubillan is not going to shoot, I don't see the point of him being on the floor.

He's got to shoot, and get one or two to go down.  He's a streaky shooter, and if we can get him going, I love him as our Vinny "the Microwave" Johnson-type player off the bench.

Only 2-7 today, but the jumper he popped off the screen was sure a pretty thing. 

Today was the first time all year IMO that it looked like he felt comfortable in the flow of the game.  Definitely a good sign.

It was the best he has looked since early last year.   I am guessing that Buzz told him to quit looking over his shoulder and just play.  Heck, there was even flashes of his old defense.   Woo-hoo!

I assume you don't mean "crazy" in a bad way - that was a pretty shot.  The announcers commented on his aggressiveness when that went in.

Great to see David get some PT today and take some shots.  I don't care what his percentage was today -- we need him to feel like it's OK to shoot if we're going to go anywhere in the dance.
