Brian Shaw

by Kyle Stanley on Feb 4, 2012 10:19 AM EST

I think we all need to give some props to Brian Shaw. No doubt in my mind that Paul George's latest surge has a lot to do with our new assistant. With Shaw's experience with a superstar level scorer in Kobe, I bet he as really put in some good work with PG. I think Shaw was probably the best offseason pickup we made as a matter of fact. The coaching changes have been way overlooked. West and Hill are great. Really think West is bringing some solid leadership and toughness with his Grown Man moves and such. The coaches though.....You can just see the their message oozing out of the players every game. TEAM.....REBOUND....DEFENSE.....OPEN MAN......WIN........Props to Vogel, Shaw, Burke, and Boylen. Blue collar is back in business!

Very good point

Good Call Kyle

I was just talking about the impact Shaw has with the team the other day. And Give Boylen props as well for us being a “Never give up Rebounding” team.

***Forever Grunge...Man!***
*Hill with the steal, he drives the lane and finger rolls. COUNT IT aaaand put'em on the line...A magnificant display of defense from George Hill*

Sad, but true.

Maybe some how the only offers he’ll get are for teams with bad personel and bad management and he will decide it’s better to wait for an opportunity to succeed rather than an up hill battle. Not likely, but, gotta keep our fingers crossed.

At least perhaps he’ll rub off on enough of the remaining assistants that we’ll be ok.

Gotta give the guy credit.

It’s not just Pacer fans that appreciate the guy. He was ranked second in in the league in most valued assistant coaches. If someone has that article, the one that shows the coaches voting on the best players at each position, as well as which head/assistant coaches are the best, please share.
