I know it's just preseason but are you guys noticing he's implemented more up and unders, pump fakes, drop steps? He's also much more effective defensively. His shot also looks like it doesn't have a hitch anymore.
Here are two videos from today. He also had a SICK double crossover move where he was toying with the Lakers D before the step back 20 footer.

I just thought you guys would want to see some improvements. I know a lot of people thought his post moves/D were weak last year but he seems to have worked very hard on it. He's much better at altering shots on D, hitting that 15-20 footer and using post moves this year from what we have seen.

Let's not forget he had that explosion on Troy Murphy lol. Gasol actually played him really well.

Lakers always play him well. Their length really bothers him. He shot 40 percent last year vs Lakers which was only matched by Chuck Hayes/Rockets. Reality is he's going to dominate the other 29 teams not named the Lakers again this year and these moves are niiiiiiiiiiiiiice. Originally Posted by shep33

His defense is still suspect, but his offense does look more refined.

Pau played him well in the post, he feasted on Murphy/McRoberts; his footwork does look improved though.
The expectations are visible behind Dwight Howard in LA

I liked his defense yesterday. And footwork and jumpshot are improved as well.

Last year was REALLY bad... he would just stick his arms up and let everybody score on him. I feel like this year he can have that Dirk level defense where he's nowhere near elite but he's solid defensively. Maybe within 2 years he can be above average. Originally Posted by OlivaThor

If there is any grudge between you and me,it must be because of our 16 titles Originally Posted by Clippersfan86
