man - though he makes TONS of mistakes - i just need to profess my love for sasha. fyi i am not a longtime cavs fan nor am i a euro. if anyone remembers i posted a report after going to a bulls cavs gme a few months back - that was the first time i had seen him play, and i immediately liked him. i think he can be a bigtime scorer - like 23-27ppg. he needs more confidence, but he definitely has it in him.

Shasa has plenty of confidence in himself, his two biggest problems are on his drives though. First he drops his head and get tunnel vision when he goes to the land, this lets good observent help defenses collapse on him and he picks up offensive fouls and turns the ball over a lot against these teams. If he keeps his vision about himself he can pass out of situations like that enough that teams won't collapse so badly.
2. He doesn't finish well a lot of the time. His touch on layups isn't good enough that if there is contact (hes not going to get those calls untill he establishes himself) or he anticipates contact that he can finish. If he improves on those two things he could easily be a 16-18 pts/5-6 ast player next year.

sasha gets DRILLED a ridiculous amount of the time when he drives to the hole, and hardly ever gets a call. and yet he picks up more phantom defensive fouls than anyone i've seen in years. it's really hard to explain.
