Jordan Williams Steps Up Game —Countdown to Midnite Madness
Terrapintimes.com reports that Jordan williams is beginning to show the power and finesse in the pickup games at Comcast. Eric Hayes continues to nurse a turf toe injury. Adrian Bowie, Greivis and Sean Mosley seem to have their A games alive and well. 22 days until Midnite Madness!!!
Playing well in pick-up games against your teammates and some other guys and playing well in “real” games are two different things. In the pick-up games you don’t have guys playing all out on defense and you don’t have opposing coaches making changes in the game to beat the other team. In pick-up games nobody is really watching and in real games there are 18,000 fans in the stands and many more watching on t.v. It’s sorta like hitting balls on the driving range before you play. Many times on the range you’re hitting like a scratch player and when it is time to go to the course you wind up playing like a hacker. Or sometimes there are racehorses who run really well in the morning work-outs and on race day they wind up in 7th place 22 lengths behind the winner. Let’s wait until the games count to talk up Jordan and any other unproven players.
Sure beats playing poorly in pickup games.
It’s the ‘power and finesse’ comment that sounds promising. But again, nothing proven until the games start.
Mosley’s A game – how’s his shooting touch?

From what I hear , Sean’s shot has improved. We need his points especially if Eric isnt ready to go.
