Here is another player that went through a brutal learning curve and now seems to also possess that invisible force.
Kwame Brown of the Los Angeles Lakers, On Court / Off Court stats from 82games.com
He averages 9 points and 7 rebounds per game and leads his team in blocked shots. People said he had no bball IQ, fouled too much, bad attitude, poor hands, blah blah blah. It turned out, he just needed to figure it out for himself on the court.
There is nobody on his team that is even close on a +, or - basis. And it isn't because he is lighting up the stat sheet.
