I think you make a really good point about wondering if he has another gear.  I have wondered that myself.

I think most people who follow recruiting know that Brewster is good, but maybe not everyone realizes how good they are.  Their starting line up is going to Syracuse, Kentucky, Miami, Boston College, and Minnesota, and they've got a kid coming of the bench going to Maryland (a top 25 school recruiting a kid that can't even crack his high school starting line up, crazy!) I expect all of them to be major contributors to their teams before long too.

So you've got this situation where Brewster beats most of the teams they play by 50 points or so, and it feels like once the game is out of reach their various stars just kind of take turns putting the ball in the hoop.

Even against Woody's team, who is a good team, and who Brewster only beat by 8 or something, the game was never in question.  Richmond scored twice early going to the basket, and it looked effortless.  Then they never went back to him again until late in the second half.  They didn't need to, they were already up by 20.  He sat long stretches too so some of their talented bench could play.  This was common.

But at the end of the year when they played teams on their level, they stopped randomly letting all their players have a moment in the sun, and it seemed pretty clear that Richmond was "the guy" on their team.  Even over Clark who is a McDonald's All American.
