This is about the most active Roc has been...

[mark79]

Watching the game over and man are we different when he is active and our guys are looking for him.

I am actually starting to feel hopeful that we could develop some kind of inside out game. I also like Roc and Baye out there at the same time. They work well together.

It will be really interesting to see how the minutes play out when JG is back in the mix. Because he and CJ will get lots of minutes that is for sure. If Roc continues to be this active, though, he will command more minutes. And Coleman will be sitting some more.

I was more excited with roc than anybody else. Hitting outside shots will make things a lot easier down low.

It's much easier to stay active when you get the ball passed to you.

It's the classic phrase, "reward the big man for runnin the floor."

I was most impressed, in order, with cooney, rak, and jumanji (mike G)

BTW can someone please clarify for me once and for all... Is it Rak or Roc. Seen it both ways.

RC: Everyone just calls me ‘Roc.’ It’s been my name for a while and they just like it like that.

Maybe it was just me, but it seemed like the player that was best at feeding Rak down low was BMK...

 

[mark79]

Jdubs, yes I agree. Baye does not have a selfish bone in his body and he was clearly looking for Roc all night in that high low set. Love the stink face after his follow up slam as well.

Roc played as mean as his death stare last night. He is going straight up as soon as he is fed the ball and on top of that is a great free throw shooter for a big. Mike g did a nice job feeding him the ball in addition to baye. A game like this can go a long way towards the team looking to get him the ball early and often which really opens things up.

Also roc having such a good relationship with cooney reminds me of scoop and rick. That play where roc got the ball and swiftlh kicked it to an open cooney was pretty.

Yes. This isn't too surprising. He also got a great entry feed while he was posting up on the right block an made a quick move into the paint and drew a foul. Announcers loved it, as did I.


Passing it to the post is about quick movements. You can't just stare the big down for a few seconds. Act fast.

Bingo! As great as last years team was they rarely ever looked into the post. Even if they had the man sealed inside.

He still does not rebound.

Was wondering when you'd be here ghost! Haha.

Eh, not sure that's true. His per 40 minute rebound numbers are better than Fab's were over their first two years, whom a lot of people thought was pretty decent on the boards.
