   Walter's always been energetic and versatile but usually out of control. I 
don't know if he's learned to harness his energy for better control or if 
we've sped things up to play at his speed. I would have dealt him away for a 
dozen pair of sweat socks at the deadline but now I'd like to see him 
resigned for another year at small dollars.

 Delk and Rogers should combine for over 20 points per night. I don't think 
Delk can be counted on for 9 rebounds per night but he's a hustle player and 
will have some nights like that. Rogers gives us the ability to put some 
really fun lineups on the floor and makes the team hard to defend.

  He made the play with a steal at the defensive end, streaked down the 
court, and took off for the slam. He also calmly canned a 15 foot jumper. His 
day will come.

  Amen! But let's get that 17th banner first!

  Four more years.
