Message: [QUOTE="SoBristol, post: 1232584, member: 485"] I believe Joseph will end up being very good for SU, but he will need to get stronger and that will take a full off-season. He is like some of the real skinny forwards we have had in the past -- the talent & quickness are there, but there is a need for more strength to compete at this level. The better ball-handling will come when he can use his body better to protect the ball. Think of the year over year improvements of Andy Rautins or Demetris Nichols -- which were in large part the result of getting stronger physically. Still wonder if Gbinije can contribute more in the back-court, as Roberson develops in the forward position. Unlike some others, I don't see Cooney as being able to transform suddenly into a primary ball-handler against pressure. He did nice things against La. Tech so there is some chance he can round out his game, but can he build on that? [/QUOTE]
