Re: Ryan Center In-Game Experience - Issues and Upgrades

My biggest beefs: 1) not leaving player stats on the ribbon above 203 during free throws as that is the only board I can see. It's the only time you can get a chance to assess fouls, points etc. 2) Beer not allowed at seats. 3) No replays. And it should be on both boards because well, I sit underne...

Re: Jermaine Harris - dramatic improvement?

He can be a weapon if he gets the ball down low. He's got a nice little hook shot and should be able to score in the paint. What he should never do is take a 3. He's shown himself to be capable at the line. Perhaps he can start with some mid-range jumpers. He hits enough of those and then maybe you ...
