Re: Rudy Gay: Western Conference November Rookie of the Month
I expect him to be one of the few rookies who keep up the good work. With my homerism aside he's my favorite.

LOL. It might be because Roy only played in 3 full games or something like that before resting his heel. Gay played well though. Congratulations to him.

Re: Rudy Gay: Western Conference November Rookie of the Month
Hmm... Gay is comming along just fine. Looks lige the best rookie so far. Bargnani is also making a strong case for himself.
Aldridge shows sparks, but his playing time is limited again.
I love the fact that Gay is getting time to develope, it's what this franchise needs to take the next step. He slowly starts to look a little more comfortable.

Re: Rudy Gay: Western Conference November Rookie of the Month
Oooohh my! That was an awesome dunk by the kid. It is real highlight material, but what's more important, it shows some agressiveness, some beastlyness... keep it up!

Of course most important for his development is getting enough playing time and that wasn't always the case. I know that Fratello is not very high on rookies in general but he needs to increase Rudy's minutes, it's not his fault that the Grizz are losing. You can only mature as a player if you are on the court and the sooner he gets more confidence the better is it long-term wise.
