Looks like past few games he's starting to attack the rim a little more, same with Bacote. Hope this trend grows.Could be huge going forward.

RE: Baker
I think Baker is joining Denzell Taylor on Jeff Jones' short list of player that he cherishes. Freeman is solid of course but Baker's minutes have been growing the past couple of games and he's been a warrior, all over the floor. That wasn't the case a month ago when he was strictly a stand in the corner pump faker.

RE: Baker
Baker's defense in particular has been spectacular all year. If this is a sign that he is developing a well rounded offensive game to go along with it, this is certainly welcomed.

RE: Baker
I've noticed his been getting to the rim a lot more and looks more comfortable. Also, Mosely has done a few things besides shoot threes.

RE: Baker
It was mentioned that Coach Jones stopped practice one day recently and said something like this to Baker," when was the last time you drove to the basket and scored" ? Ever since then he has been in attack mode, both ends. He's playing great. He brings a different style then our other guards. Also, I remember after one of the road losses a couple weeks ago, after the game Freeman says." I wasn't aggressive enough". I'd say he has changed that lately! 24 points and 5 boards after a 17&11 performance game before.

All the guards have been playing well.

RE: Baker
Baker is really good at stealing the ball and not fouling.

Baker does it with class and points for style.
