He never sees a shot that he doesn't take, though. Coming off the bench - with the lack of scoring this team has - you gotta like his courage. The rest of the guys always pass it back to Bo-Tas-Storm.

He really needs to see what he can do in the post. He never wants his back to the basket when he gets a body on a guy. He has the tendency to dribble and try and create a shot right when he gets it. Not sure if J likes it one way or the other with Harris, but just an observation

Trent spent half of last year trying to make CJ a back to the basket guy and finally admitted he had made a mistake in doing that. Unfortunately he never realized the same about CJ guarding the other teams best post guy.

Harris is darn near a CJ clone. I don't think Trent minds. Until he gains significant weight/bulk he absolutely cannot play the post on either end of the court. He's best served used as he is. I'd like to see him get more minutes...and certainly more than Green.

yeah he's one of the few that isn't lacking in confidence. that's an interesting take from bo, i guess they do want to see him play in the post although like you say there will be more depth next season with white and courtney. nevertheless it wont hurt the kids game to develop some moves he can use when its time to go down there and play with his back to the basket, i do like what he does when facing the goal, i've speculated we will see him play some 3 next season and the 4 as well, i like that we can move him around. the team was really aided early in the year by how well he played off the bench. i said the other day he reminds me of storm from last season, started off well at the beginning of the year, picked up an injury, kind of fell off, then had some moments, hope he keeps getting better. he's got that shot blocking nature too which i like.
