Bradley Bright Spot
Posted: February 15th, 2012, 11:25 pmIn this awful year of Bradley basketball please allow me a moment to share what appears to be one, glimmer of light..that is the play of sophomore Walt Lemon, Jr....especially of late.
After two awful games in a row Lemon has had three very good ones in a row.
Last three games: 20.3 ppg, 3.3 apg, 3.0 rpg, 2.5 tpg, 19-38 FG (50%), 23-26 FT (88%). That's not bad.
I know he isn't an All-MVC level guy. I get it. He is far from a finished product. But he has improved as the point guard since the year has gone on. It's amazing how often he beats people and gets to the rim when everyone knows that is what he is going to do. His speed and athleticism are off the charts.
Hopefully..I mean hopefully, he can continue to get better, become a better shooter and help BU build something.
Ok, back to talk of the good teams.
