This kid has so much potential, but is still so rough.

Neville abused him down low. Plaisted's offense is very sporadic, and he often misses badly.

He reminds me of guys that are used to out-athlete-ing everyone, so they continue to try and use their speed to win. And therefore don't develop the basics that will help them succeed at the level of major college basketball.

Who was that MacGregor guy? He came in and looked great. Bouncy, fast, good touch. I was thinking, "how come Plaisted can't do this?"

If Plaisted can actually make a quantum leap, we might be tough the next couple of years.
