Whether it was due to effort or overall professionalism, Spo hasn't helped but shown how he feels about Ware. Even though you'd imagine most of it comes from a good place, likely because Spo believes so much in Ware's talent, it's only natural to wonder what type of impact being so critical could have on such a young player."
