Most of us seem to have written Huff off as a significant contributor this coming year, and even the following year. But I felt last year that experience and working hard on catching the ball might be all Huff needs to be on a path to being very good.

Sure, sure, he needs to work on fouling. Plus all the usual stuff. But the kid has a good motor, good attitude, runs the floor well, and has an NBA-ready body. That's an excellent foundation.

So . . . what's the scuttlebutt on his development this summer? What's he working on? How's he coming along?
