But he is a smash mouth type bball player, when he played at GS he finished somerhing like 3rd in blocks, I see him like Amundson but with a bigger body, intensity, great passion he’ll be a fan favorite after 2 games.

That guy actually has a lower PER36 rebounding total that Tyler has 7.6 to 8.5 despite being the larger man and playing for more uptempo teams who miss a lot.

Tyler, Hill,. Roy, DC and PG actually cut into the lead and played competitively for several min then we never seen that group again and went right into small ball.

Lou brings nothing offensively when actually defended and he’s a TO waiting to happen and if by chance he does get a bailout foul he can’t shoot FT. AJ can’t shoot a lick unless its a 20 point game in the second half of the 4th so if he isn’t passing he brings nothing, Danny has been off all year but still shoots just as much as ever and Hill was off last night and it made no sense to keep firing away with him when he was clearly ice cold.

We made a whopping 4 hoops in the 4th and one was on our very first possession and another was on the very last one! So we made 2 buckets from 11:35 left to 20.8 left. West shot zero shots in the 4th and Big Roy had just 2 making one. It blows my mind how we have 3 big men who want the ball and have the ability to go off in spurts but yet we love getting away from them for long jumpers.
