I was listening to local sports radio (NY area) and they were talking about some NBA player and how instinctive the player was at his timing of making basket cuts and how its a skill that some players just inherently have.  Sam would certainly fall into the category.  I can't remember a Badger with better instincts with respect to basket cuts.

Bruesewitz and Gard talked about that skill, more Bruiser. I've only talked to Sam a few times but in my view he is a bit put off by folks pestering him about his role and why he isn't starting.

To say he has the proper perspective is an understatement.

And each time I see him he gets better/more comfortable. I'm very curious to see where his game is in March.

Edit:

And here is another quote, this one from the story that I finished a few minutes ago:

"Winning is everything to me. I am crushed when we lose. Going out and losing to two teams already in the first six games, if that's not telling you that you have to get in the gym and work harder, I don't know what is."
