I wish they'd feed him much more often -- geez, this would really add a nice dimension to our half court and send him to the line (where he's been improving).
 
In the GT game, BT fed him early, and he blew the layup and a subsequent put-back. But that's about all he did wrong (besides try to dribble and get it picked by Clark).
 
Fab's getting very good position ... he seals his man, sticks that long arm out there -- all he needs is a feed thrown right to the bottom/outside corner of the backboard and our half-court just improved by 25%.
 
Another peeve (while I'm venting) ... I watched the GT game last night and slow-mo'd most of the rebounds. Ya know what ... there's nothing fancy. On a few plays, I saw CF fair get outmuscled for inside position. In the second half he did better -- and he had 9 boards (not bad for the weak side).
 
But most of it ... was just numbers. On most shots, there were at least 3-4 dark jerseys right near the backboard. We can talk about schemes, desire and positioning all we want... but GT just had more bodies on the glass. If we want to get better in this area, we have to comitt more guys. It's not rocket science.
