Roy shot 4-10 with 14 pts 8 rebs 2 assists first half. Second half 2-6 with 2 pts 7 rebs 1 assist. But did have that positive +/-.

Needs to finish stronger. Dunk it, use glass or be forceful with his body to draw foul. If he ever gets around to doing that then he'll be an All-Star. Much of its mental.

"Roy should dunk the ball." I'm getting nostalgic.

ahhh these comments by Dwyer are rough...
I'd give the guy more credence if didn't talk about how Nate Collison is such a great defender.
----
Per Daily Thunder, "The lineups featuring Collison accounted for roughly 40% of the minutes played for the Thunder last season. Those lineups posted a Defensive Rating 99.5, which is roughly 8 points better than the 107.6 they put up without Collison. The improvement wasn’t just at the defensive end either. The Thunder posted an Offensive Rating of 109.8 with Collison on the floor, a full point better than the 108.8 they posted without him."
In his first game back, OKC defeated Utah and Collison guarded Al Jefferson, who finished 5-14, 5 rebs and with three TOs.

Tough article on ESPN about disappointing rookies. Our boy Greg heads the list. I'll post the relevant snippet.
1. Greg Monroe, Pistons
He's 6-foot-11 and 250 pounds. He's a decent athlete. And he's played as a post player his whole basketball career. Would you like to guess how often he gets his shot blocked?
First, I'll give you some reference points. Derrick Favors has yet to have a shot blocked in the NBA, inside the paint or on a jumper. Incredible. DeMarcus Cousins gets 15 percent of his jump shots swatted (not great), but only 7 percent of his paint shots blocked (pretty darn good).
Monroe has had 24 percent of his paint shots blocked and 25 percent of his shots outside the paint blocked. Gulp. Those are astoundingly bad numbers. And watching him on tape, it's easy to see what his issues are -- no explosion, little creativity or extension and no sense of urgency as a finisher.
He's playing like he's a 6-6 power forward (like Chuck Hayes, who also gets 24 percent of his paint shots blocked). He's getting blocked by bigs in front of him because he's not challenging them with any fakes or anything that will throw off their timing -- and when he does fake, it's in slow motion. And he's getting blocked from behind by guards who can easily read his intentions. His problems are fixable, of course, but with the Pistons playing better basketball, his minutes may diminish.

Roy versus Greg and Dajuan: it's like you can almost tell which one took advantage of his time to develop in college.

Hard work pays off. Especially when it is time for his next contract(NBA labor issues notwithstanding).
