What's happened to WCS?

Last night he was a poor finisher. Some good moves and no points. With his physical skills he should be jamming the ball anytime he gets close to the rim. He needs to work on the feet. Pappa is much worse with his feet. Coaching can easily fix that kind of stuff. It adds 8-10 points to the offense right there without doing anything else.
With Rebounding, upper-body strength and bulk comes into play, and Cauley-Stein does not have that body-type. Its not an excuse in and of itself, but an explanation; he could definitely improve by hitting the weight room for 10 lbs of muscle in the off-season. Bulking up is always a risky proposition though because of the wear/tear on the knees/back.
While strength and bulk can be beneficial when rebounding, I don't think they are necessary. Moses Malone, Dennis Rodman, and Anthony Davis all were/are great rebounders. And none of them are bulky or overly strong.
Rebounding is about technique, desire, and natural instincts. The first 2 are on the player. The latter is something you either have or don't have.

Ill keep saying what I have been. WCS is not the norm for 7 footers and I mean that in a positive light. He could be very special for us.
His post game remarks about SEAL training and working on his mental strength this offseason bode well going into year 3. Increased assists and rebounding, tighter defense, surprising turn around fade away 20 footers, the list goes on.
I see strong positives with Willie and Papa backing him up. I saw somewhere Skal mentioning hitting the weights and coming back a different player. Very encouraging front court in our future.

Oh my he spoke of that taboo culture 
Willie just talks like he views himself as the centerpiece of this franchise. Talking about Playoffs, about how he thinks he is able to score on everyone and how there is nobody he can't stop, about how his game is similar to Skal's or Papa's.
That are pretty strong statements. Don't mistake me - I would love it, if Willie follows this up on the court. If Willie is able to get his game to the next level, it's great for the Kings.
Indeed! Gotta keep my pitchfork ready....
