From PIT – A scoring machine, Holmes came to prove that he can find the bottom of the net and he accomplished his task.  Looking to attack at every opportunity, he used his quick first step and decent athleticism to get to the basket and finish.  His outside shot was falling and he made a number of them with a hand in his face and on the move. He has a well rounded scoring repertoire and the uptempo style was very well suited for his game.  In terms of passing the ball, he had a very unimpressive 2 assists, which speaks directly to his tunnel vision.  He was not very keen on distributing the ball and it made him a very predictable offensive player.  For the NBA, he is undersized on the wing and doesn’t have a great body, but his scoring will earn him a paycheck overseas.
