I made a comment earlier in the year, that I think is coming to fruition right now. Pryzbilla was a more productive player for a majority of the first 30 games, but Greg was quickly given the starting position and a majority of the minutes.
That is paying dividens now because he is finally getting close to game shape. For a guy his size, it can't be easy to sit for over a year and then be expected to get up and down the court at an NBA level.
And he still isn't where he was at conditioning-wise at tOSU. He can get into better shape, but tonight was the first time I saw glimpses of his former abilities throughout the course of a game, not just in 2-3 minute bursts.
I got a kick out of his technical tonight too, after Ray Allen fell into the crowd due to a small nudge from Greg....Garnett and the C's started yapping at him, and Greg said something that made all of his teammates breakout laughing. I wish I knew what he said.
