Game 13: LAC (3-8) @ DAL (3-9) 7:30 PM CT

[cow]

We forget that Dirk, for all the good things he did offensively, took many years to become a solid passer out of double teams, while Shaq right off the bat was a great passer out of double teams. Everyone is different.  Again, I'm with you that at least of now I don't see him being a scorer you can ride to death during a game, but the kid has clear offensive talent and let's see where he stands come year 3.

Interesting that you mention Dirk and Shaq, as one thing I don't worry about with Cooper is that like Dirk and unlike Shaq, he seems to be a worker who is going to maximize his potential.  Shaq is always my go to guy for didn't come close to maximizing his potential, but was still amazing.
