Scottie Barnes is growing in all directions at once
At first, when you were watching Scottie Barnes in the earliest stages of his NBA career, you could almost see his growth from moment to moment. His game was developing in all directions at once, and every few games — if not every few plays — he would do something new that he hadn’t done before. Going into the NBA, Scottie was supposed to be a little more of a project, but it became apparent early on that he was a plus player from Day 1. Right away, we found out about the many things that he could do, and at times it felt like Scottie was discovering those things along with us. Every time he pulls in a rebound and runs the ball in transition to hit the cutter with a no-look dime, you can feel him thinking, Oh, I can do this, too?
Cleveland premia la habilidad de mejorar un concurso del All-Star
Los cambios siempre son necesarios en los eventos más flojos. Es una máxima que la NBA, y además si está relacionado con su preciado fin de semana del All-Star, no esquiva.

Las habilidades se han multiplicado este 2022. Hay que acertar mucho más, hay numerosas pruebas. De la yincana que era menester a que ésa sea sólo una de las cuatro patas del banco. Es para perderse el nuevo formato del Concurso de Habilidades, pero tiene más ingredientes, entre ellos el picante como especia potenciadora de sabor, para que el espectador se mantenga atento aunque se pueda perder en algunos momentos.
