Interesting that Babbitt got 10 3s off. He clearly has the green light for now. Wonder if his release has gotten quicker.


Was his release really that slow or was it his pump fakes? Was he blocked often? I really don't remember. More than anything, I think hesitation was his biggest problem. "Slow" comes to mind when I think of his first step off of the pump fake. A pump fake is useless if it sets up nothing.

Hesitation would probably be a more accurate assessment than slow release. I remember a few games where he would be lining it up so long he'd have to pump fake. It wasn't the smooth catch and shoot like shown in the highlights.
