       >>>One thing that has bothered me. Jake, when you grab an

       Very much agreed, Checkmate. Frankly, I'd suggest a
       reconsideration and better decision on the breakaway dunk, too.
       C'mon man, lots of better choices: tomahawk, windmill, rock the
       baby...
       Seriously though, I really hope this comes. Petras is a 5-10 min
       backup, probably next year too. But in the AE with his size? And
       when he does shoot freethrows or around the basket it's not like
       he's brutally clanking the ball off the rim. He's got a pretty
       good shot. I can't help but think in an inevitably small role he
       could be a consistent 3+ rebound, 6+ point guy every night, and
       that would be huge off the bench come crunch time in the
       playoffs against quality teams.

       I agree. The crowd went nuts when Petras finally jammed the
       basket because he never does. It is as if he is afraid to jump.
       Maybe last night game woke Petras up and he starts getting a
       little more aggressive on offense. On one play, Petras got a
       pass right in front of the basket and he passed it back out as
       if he was scared to make the shot. This is def a mental issue he
       has, He needs to break out of this...

       Maybe just lack  of confidence.   Him running down the court and
       the dunk was like a semi truck going airborne he woke everyone
       up . Hopefully we see more since he is usually the biggest
       player out there.
