OK I'm officially taking credit: Over the summer Damien worked with one of my trainers, so it's all because of UC Fitness (www.ucfitness.biz).
The reality: Damien is coming into his own and he's got very good genes to boot. Kim Trego worked on his flexibility, but he worked hard all summer on his game and confidence. I only talked to him a couple of times (mostly about his big damn dog, he would bring), but you could see that he was determined to have a breakout year.
What pisses me off is that he comes out against us and that he won that game for Seattle, but Durant will get the hero story!
