kevin van wijk...if you find him...he will score

[truth219]

He has such good hands. He handles the pass and puts it back so fast. He deserves some praise after last night.

It seems like he only struggles on his lay-ups when he puts the ball below his waist and hesitates.  If he turns around right away and puts it up, it will go in every time.  This is the same for our guys when they don't shoot almost immediately when they get the ball at the 3 point line.  If they dribble, then realize they are open, we are screwed, except for Rowdy who can hit any shot at any time.  It's weird watching some of our games, in that we don't seem to realize how wide open we are as soon as we get the ball, only noticing 1 second too late and having to drive after that point.

I liked the Intro to the Bracketbuster show last night... Bryce Yelling, Rowdie Dunking and KVW with that monster block... all in about 30 seconds of snippets by ESPN.   I wonder if they archived that show?

I think KVW only has problems when he gets a clean chance at a lay in.  He seems to thrive on contact.  I love it!
