    Okur Look's Really Good!

    I've been reading articles on Okur all summer. Brown has been saying how much talent he has. Even ESPN and NBA.com are calling him the breakout player. And I gotta say after seeing him in his first action of the year, he might. All the fat he had last year is muscle now. He must of been workin' out alot over the summer. His dribbling and just overall confidence has improved vastly. He looks 10 times faster than last year. He was taking defenders off the dribble from the 3-Point line. Even his shot looks better.

    I'd watch out for Mehmet. He could be deadly this year!

    I was thinking the same thing earlier today. I think we are going to have a great year, and Memo will be a big part of it. It seems lots of people want to bash the hiring of Larry Brown, but our players are looking much better and happier than last year.

    BTW, did you see Tayshaun tonight? God he is looking 100x better than last year. Much more aggressive and confident.

          Yeah Prince also looked good. I think Darko will be like Mehmet. It will take him a little while to get comfortable with the game. Geez, I'm still smilin' about Okur. His mid-range shot looks perfect.

                After what I saw from them last night I cannot wait for the season to start. Just getting Memo back from injury made a huge difference in overall talent on the team. I cannot wait to see what this team has inside when Zele comes back

                            Tayshaun still gets pushed around at times, which concerns me. The Cavs and Raptors were able to limit what he did offensively just by banging him around. Tay did show more aggressiveness against the Celtics though, so hopefully that's the start of something good.

                            And yeah Mehmet Okur looked very good out there on the court. He does appear to look stronger, and I was pleased to see him finish a layup after drawing heavy contact. This didn't happen much, if at all last season.
