Its not only the media, but peeps at other message boards when they talk about Joey Graham. Albeit from what I heard and read he had a decent performance last night, but how many times have we as fans done this regarding Joey. What I mean is how often have we wet our panties after he's had a strong performance and all excited about the possibilities only to realize that next game he'll be absolutely garbage. When we'll we ever learn?

I like Joey, I just wish that he would eventually get it all together. He has the tools to be physically dominate, but for some reason it just doesnt work out for him. He is a pretty good shooter, hes quick and he definately plays hard.
Maybe he is just scared to mess up.

It's becuase we see promise in him. He'll show the moments of good play because he's CAPABLE of it. The dude has talent - and if this pre-season / training camp is an indication, he may have improved on his basketball IQ a bit. ... i know, i know... RoboGraham is too dumb to get it. Bullocks. He can get "it" at some point if he tries hard enough. I've said it before that i think Joey will come up big for us this year. I still think so. I ain't giving up on him.

THe same thing has been beat into him for what 3 years now.
Surely something has sunk in after this long. Last night and in summer league he was definately in attack mode which is what he needs, just be active and hustle, hit the open shot. Joey, in all true honesty, should be this teams starting small forward. If he stays as "good joey" then no one on this team can compete with what he brings.

my hate for Joey Graham runs so deep... even if he scored 20 ppg this season, i'd still hate him and think he was useless.

I have to say there was something different about him last night. He actually looked like he knew what he was doing the whole time he was out there. I missed a good chunk of the second half to watch the Office, but from what I saw, it looked like he had really been working on things to the point where he can handle everything mentally now. Of course that could just be wishful thinking, but if this guy could play good defense without the brain cramps, then that would help so much.
