Things to look for this season: Morris Almond
If CJ Miles' career is Shakespeare, then Almond's is Dickens. Specifically a tale of two cities (Salt Lake, and Orem). His coaches need to settle on his role, and plug him into it, instead of shuffling him between both places, and getting nowhere slowly. What things can we expect from him in 2008-09

I think it can improve some of the players on my team. I just don't think that it's useful *anymore* for one particular player who's only going to get better by playing against NBA guys . . .

allthatjazzbasketball.blogspot.com 10/28/2008 — And oldie but a goodie that basically tells us all what we already know. Morris Almond is deficient in a few categories when compared to other NBA SGs.
