    Is Shandon Back?
    Is Steve emerging?

    Let's hope so.
    I'm VERY encouraged by Shandon's Play

    How about running more plays for Shandon? I think he is usually the odd man out on the offense - which is sad considering he could be a dangerous weapon (like he was last night)

    For the most part there weren't any plays run for Shandon. He had a few fast breaks and a few put backs. Most importantly, he moved on offense and they got him the ball for a couple of layups.

    You don't run plays for Shandon. He's opportunistic on offense. He's generally not going to follow a play right (get himself out of position), or he'll make a bad pass when he is in the right position.

    He's generally more of a "clean-up" man. When a play gets fu**ed, he'll try to salvage it. If opportunity knocks, he'll put it in or he'll go on a fast break, whichever way the wind is blowing. He doesn't do well with set plays.

    And of course, when he's not doing any of that, he's on D. Most of the time...
