Rookie Call
Daniel Gibson was considered to be a good draft pick by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of last year"s draft. Some said that he should have been picked in the first round and that he is a good guard who is experienced. Playing at Texas, he was able to prove that his three point shooting is something not to laugh at. He was not much of a factor during the regular season and was a role player. Rookies are usually not used as much because chances are, the veterans are still better. Daniel would eventually show the true meaning of stepping up.
Throughout the playoffs, Daniel performed so well that he was on everyone"s list for hero of the day. He showed up strong against the Pistons in the Eastern Conference finals by hitting most of his three point attempts. Even though this was his first real playing time under pressure, he was able to handle his composure. He silently set and took the shot, confidant and sure of himself. After all, he did have Lebron"s approval. During specific times in the season, Lebron has said that Daniel was a talented player and said that he knew when someone was good. This probably contributed to the success of Gibson in the series, because the NBA"s biggest star had confidence in him.
He believed that he was able to help out the team and as a result passed the ball to him. Daniel scored 31 points in the fifth game of the series and is probably the player of the series. It cannot be sure whether the Cavs would have beaten the Pistons had Gibson not stepped up. He stole the show from Lebron, making even serious fans forget who the best player on the court was. Daniel now has a new nickname, Boobie and is proud of it. He has rosed to the occasion when Lebron desperately needed help. As a result, many view Daniel as a good draft steal.
This is an example of someone taking over even when he was not expected to. No one knew that Daniel could do this and Daniel was even surprised himself. This shows that good things can happen if hard work is put forth and dreaming is done. Now Daniel has found a home and will be a key player on a team.
