is really not good. Maybe he will turn it around like Malik did. I hope so because he really hurts this team at this point.

I don't know what his deal is but man he's awful right now. He had a couple of drives that he was able to finish but other than that it was not good.

At the start of the year I expected one n done and a draft slot 5 through 10. and a career path similar to what Josh Jackson and Kelly Oubre seem to be on. This is starting to look more like Wayne Selden. NBA body, but requiring a while to get ready for the Association.

That's a fair assessment, Illhawk. But if I recall correctly, Oubre didn't start off so hot. It took 'til the conference season before he started showing progress.

Just was able to look up Oubre's stats. It wasn't 'til the end of December/early Jan that he started finding his groove. Hopefully the same thing happens for Grimes. My guess is that it will.

Last year, I would cringe every time Newman got the ball until he finally figured it out.
Remember this post.
I think we're on the cusp of seeing him break out. You can't be THAT good (predicted as an OAD/Lottery pick) and be THIS bad. Self was still high on him after seeing him play in the summer.
Maybe tonight?

9 points with 5 minutes left in the 1st half......if the trend continues he'll have 24
