This will not be a very long post. Another low-quality opponent, another very small crowd, some uninspired play, but also undeniable talent on the court.
I thought the most exciting things to develop tonight were the inspired play of Rakim Christmas and the hustle and tenacity of DC2.
Rak came to play. He rebounded well. He defended well. And best of all, he really wanted the ball on offense and when he got it, he finished. With authority..
DC2 did a terrific job on the boards. He hustled, and went to the basket strong. And his defense was solid as well. His free-throw shooting still needs work.
Ryerson let CJ shoot. And he played well and had a good game. If he had shot the ball really well, he would have had crazy numbers.
The more I watch Patterson play, the more I like him. He places as hard as any player we've ever had. BJ and Roberson struggled a bit on defense. They are still finding their way and we need to be patient.
TE and TC did well. They didn't play a whole lot, and the focus was not on them tonight. But I like the chemistry.
The effort was uneven tonight. Overall, the subs played better than the first exhibition.
Ryerson pressed us, played zone, and even played some man-to-man. This provided us with a good tuneup and a variety of experiences for the young players.
We experimented with the press. Used a bunch of different lineups. Played the fresh extensively. Can't wait for the regular season to begin.
