Message: [QUOTE="orangefan13, post: 1541732, member: 906"] I love the thought of all these guys being open for three but I think there is a possibility Lydon, Cooney and maybe Joseph could have a hard time finding looks over time. Midseason defenses get even tighter and late february ones even tighter. These first two games maybe we were getting our freshmens feet wet. But, we have 0 guys pushing confident isolation outside Joseph maybe cooney a bit. I think Malachi is leaning that way some. You would have a tough time finding one of our teams let alone a team we have played in the last 15 years that didn't run some isolation and cut down on the number of easy passes per possession by January. I thought we would see alittle MCW/Wes Johnson Isolation crossbreed kind of game from Gbinije. Not a knock but he had 0 boards last game, and 0 drives into the lane. Would love to see him grab 4-5 boards at guard and spend only 12-15 minutes at forward, and with Malachi in the game we can still run the fast break. But he has looked more like a spot up Preston Shumpert type early on, with ballhandling and perimeter passing skills. I don't think he had a drive and kick last game. He is dribbling the ball back slouched low true point guards have it waist high going into their shot/pass, if that continues I would call him more of a SF. Last year his drives favored halfcourt transition looks but unless JB had him holding off some for the fresh/sophmores then last years drives clearly didn't bring a above average level of confidence, or he would of been driving some early on. Would like to see Kaleb/Cooney get into the lane and make 5-6 pullups that way they can kick it out more and Gbinije can play SG. We don't need Kaleb/Cooney to attack all the way to the tin all that much we can save that for Malachi, Roberson and Gbinije maybe. The fastest guy doesn't have to be the one to attack the basket.
