His defense was very good throughout. TRob was quicker at both ends and played his best game by far. Held Sullinger to 6 pts in 28 min while getting 15 pts, 16 reb and 3 ast himself. In my view he was playing more as a SF than PF but was a PF down low and around basket. He scored a number of times using an awesome spin move, put backs and some nice jumpers.
I agree, his defense was much improved. It wasn't great, but definitely an improvement. Honestly, with his length, quickness and leaping ability, I don't understand why he doesn't block more shots than he does. I think it's something he should be a lot better at.
Offensively, I still think he's rushing his shot, which is contributing to many of the misses around the basket. He mentioned the difference in the speed of the game compared to college and I think he's overcompensating a bit. When he learns to slow down and take what's there, I really believe he'll start finishing better.
Btw, It was nice to see him dominante the glass today.
