That's really encouraging for a number of reasons. It seems there's some nice chemistry developing there. The article was about Rondo's shooting but it could just as easily have focused on Lester.
Considering Rondo's rather stunning quickness, if Lester can cover him that closely and challenge his shot that tightly, maybe Lester has a chance to make it. He has the physical ability, he seems like a student of the game. It's for certain he has a huge amount to learn, but it seems that confidence is a big factor at this point in a player's development and Doc doesn't like to take chances with fragile egos. We could use a few blowouts for the young guys to get minutes.

Per Doc last night, they are sending him down to DL soon just to get some consistent play night in, night out.

dbrown,
I suppose that's a good thing. It's hard to learn how to run a team if you never get a chance to run team, but I'm trying to think of a player who has been in D-league who came back NBA-ready. Josh Powell of the Lakers comes to mind, but even he's questionable if he plays more than a few minutes.
Pruitt, JR and Walker all did their D-league stints and they're a little better but not a lot. Maybe they could have improved just as much if they had stayed with the team and learned from playing against the best instead of against other players "on the bubble".
Maybe this is a prelude to us clearing a roster spot to sign someone to fill in for Daniels?

Just read the Herald article about Lester going to the Claws. Doc says he only wants him there for a week or two and expects him back for the Minny game.
