Brown will always have a good rating offensively because he doesn’t try to do too much but still offers some decent production. That’s a good thing and a not great thing all at once I guess. Love his composure but feel he could occasionally be a bit more aggressive offensively.Meh, still not impressed with Bell 75% of the time. He’s a three point volume shooter and not much else for the amount of time he’s on the court. Starling has better rebounding and steal %s and more points produced despite not having a jumper. Bell has the worst d-rating among non walk-ons.
As an aside Brown leads the team in D-rating AND O-rating.
On Bell, I’m mostly with you. I will say I thought his release looked faster and more consistent and his shots came in rhythm more vs LSU. Maybe they just stink but that’s as quick and pure as I’ve seen Bell.
But how much has he improved and is he a winning player that can help us make a run at a tourney berth? Feel like that’s still up in the air and I skew a bit skeptical. Seems like a good enough kid who’s working harder on defense, but he’s still almost exclusively a standstill shooter. To start talking about all-acc or showing drastic improvement we need to see more movement, more shots off screens, more rebounding, and continued improvement creating looks for himself and hopefully others from time to time off the pump fake.
