I think he realizes he needs to be more aggressive. He didn't have to look for his shot as much last year because we had ( Kennedy ) Winston and ( Earnest ) Shelton . The team needs him to be a scorer and he's done that.
last shooting sparks year
I thought I was in for another Patrick Sparks like last year the way he was shooting it.
