Watching Christmas and Coleman repeatedly go -- with relatively minimal success -- to their right hand when attempting to finish on the left side of the basket is honestly infuriating. I can't really fathom how this is possible -- Christmas is in his second year and is literally an elite level athlete ... but he can't make a left-handed layup? Seriously? Cal was dying to get Coleman at UK and he's a legit 6-10 or whatever and he can't extend his left hand and bank it off the glass?
I sound like a much older codger than I really am, but the inability of talented big men and swing men to finish with their off-hand is amazing to me. KJ, Fab, Jackson, Fair, Xmas, Coleman ... the list is endless. A guy like Onuaku is a rare breed these days and all he did was basically make lefty laups with the occasional baby hook. Compared to the aforementioned folks, he might as well have been george mikan.
