Brad needs to shoot more. I've been saying that ever since we stopped going to him last year. His jumper from 15-20 ft. is probably as good as Peja's....and he gets them wide open all the time.

I know, I almost wish nobody on the Kings goes, but I think Brad is probably a likely candidate considering the lack of quality bigs in the NBA.

Yes, that is true. I was referring however to him stepping up in Webb's absence, rather than the #'s

Some quotes after the game from Brad/about Brad:
(courtesy of http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=250125023)
Brad: "They always say I'm probably the only person in the league that doesn't want to shoot enough. When Webb is out, I know I've got to be able to step up and change my role a little bit. I'm cool doing it every now and then."
Rick Adelman: "I don't think he's ever been a volume shooter. His first thought is to pass and to not take the shot. The way they were defending, he was going to get shot after shot after shot, and we kept telling him that." (Glad his teammates and coach is telling him to shoot more.)
Cuttino: "It's easy to get assists on this team when you have so many scorers and shooters and unselfish guys. Brad is one of the best-shooting big men out there, and he can take it to the hole, too. But he's unselfish."
Btw, Cat is averaging 4 assists a game since he became a King. When he was with the Magic, he was only averaging close to 2 assists a game.

Looks like Brad's got the shooting touch back. Nice to see. He's a huge weapon when he's taking and hitting those shots. Great game Brad.

Speaking of how well Brad plays when Webb is out...........and I'm a Webb fan......
But does Webb necessairily make the other players around him better?
The individual efforts from Brad, Peja and maybe not as much Bibby seem to thrive when he's not on the floor. I haven't drawn any real conclusions yet.......thoughts?

they just know that they each have to put forth a little extra effort to fill that void that Webb leaves when he's not on the floor
Webb does make them better, for the record

I guess it begs the question......Imagine if that same effort were there all the time. That perhaps Webb lulls his teammates somewhat into a "Webb will get it done" mentality. And I recognize that every team has a "go to guy", but it's almost frustrating to see performances like last night and realize that even with Webb's talent added to that mix the increase in performance doesn't necessairily increase expotentially.......know what I mean?
