Coaches love to play the "how can we bench Collison" game, as non-high-flying pale skins are not part of the NBA marketing plan. But Nick can come up big.Great game tonight against Houston, as Collison (6'9 255 PF, 5th year) led OKC to victory in his 30 minutes of play, scoring 21 on a mere 10 shots, adding 9-10 from the charity stripe. Such aggressiveness is just what he needs to send his game over the top.
Nick has been a solid player the last couple years, almost averaging a double double last year with 9.8 points and 9.4 boards over 28 mpg, and if he continues to demonstrate the aggressiveness to go with his skill, he will have a breakout year.
