Ugly win, but we are going to have those. We beat a bad team and Graves carried us like a vet should.
We have nothing in the paint on D. Rosado couldnt keep any of their goofy bigs away from the rim. Got backed down and smoked by some pretty bad Y level players. Is Nika an answer in the post?
I donāt think Oden is going to play for us this year.
Probably enough of the very negative stuff. I did see some things I liked too.
First, the FT shooting was excellent. As we all noticed, it was the difference.
I liked Blackmonās D, and then he finally showed up on offense late. For a guy who lost 18 lbs from being sick, he is still pretty powerfully built. If he gets that weight back he might kinda remind me of slightly smaller Demario Mayfield.
Folkes harassed their top scorer (the PG with the headband) especially late in the first half, which threw their already bad offense even further off.
Rolf had an up and down game but I still like what I see from him. He has a very good chance to become our Igor replacement.
I think Jaeshon is solid too, though this wasnāt a great game for him offensively.
We need Braswell on the court though. Need his offense, his blocks, and his finishing as well as his leadership. No more foul trouble please Bobby Buckets.
Fearneās approach is no bullshit, no gimmicks. I think itās kinda refreshing. As long as we can find a way to get and retain some talent, we should be okay. But I think this team needs some work before we can beat anyone good, as Utah State showed us.
