So. My overall impression of this night is that I need cataract surgery. Bigly.
Yes, the dunk contest was a show but I think they always are. Most of the time the players embarrass themselves. Usually our stars don’t want to participate because there is more than a slight chance that they will look extremely foolish. So I was surprised when Judah participated and nailed it. Got all 10’s. He looked suaaaaave.
Judah looked every part the star. He looked comfortable. He has the “it” factor. Brown is big all over! He looked taller and heavier than last year (is that possible?) and he was quick as well. Judah is one of the smaller players on the team. I couldn’t get much of an impression of JJ. Cuffe looked really solid. (Or was that Westry? Still can’t figure out who Westry is. It’ll come.) I was quite impressed with Copeland. He not only went after it, he got it!
I liked Bell’s overall game. He took every 3 he could (wish he had made more) but he also went inside. He‘s another one who seems confident. Benny was great! Rebounded, looked bouncy on the floor. Didn’t see much from McLeod. Was that McLeod or was that me?
Someone on here said that if we can make our 3’s, look out! Well, the 3’s were disappointing tonight, IMO. There’s time, Peggy, there’s time. Relaaaaaaaax.
Our team looked like men. They were not skinny sticks. I still can’t get over Brown. Please, someone tell me if he looked like that last year! I feel good about this team. They looked happy to be out there together. I was happy to see them. Huzzah!
