He wasn't perfect, but with a full offseason can get back near this level? His moves are much more sudden and confident. I feel like we saw very little of this development off this this past year. I put the blame on several parts of the team. Regardless, KP should watch this and realize there is at least 8 points a game by cutting and being active. Where was that one legged fadeway this year at the free throw line this year?
It would certainly help the team on the floor and also give us more leverage in trade talks if we wanted to explore.

Ya he looks good there. He's been in quicksand this year. Another thing with the bubble is he had a super long layoff (ie lots of body rest) and this was pre-meniscus. Maybe after a full offseason he starts looking more like last year KP? I guess the shocker to me is that meniscus surgery is not some major surgery. Guys get that stuff done all the time. It makes no sense that he would look worse after that than an ACL tear (altho again he had a long layoff there too). I do wonder if everything just got too rushed and he never really got to condition right. Also remember the condensed schedule did him no favors.
