He was a master against the Warriors last week. Perfect timeouts, figured out a way to beat Golden State on the road without Crowder. Incredible job forcing turnovers and using his personnel. Pop level stuff.
Look at Evan Turner. He was a total mess when he got here. Constantly making bad decisions, taking bad shots, dribbling out the shot clock only to take a fall away that had no chance. In short, one of my least favorite players ever. But sometime this year Evan clearly heard what Brad was telling him- cut down on the threes, use your body to get to your favorite spots along the elbow and execute your moves or passes earlier in the shot clock. And now Evan Turner isn't just beating the other teams' scrubs, he can hold his own and then some against the starters, even at crunch time. That transformation is due to Brad. I'm glad he's our coach. Way up the list of Danny's accomplishments was hiring him. Enjoy this while it lasts.
