He is an incredible athlete, and his motor is always in high gear. He will help us win some games next season. Glad he will be on the team. Tshiewbe and Toppin will be a formidable frontcourt duo. -------------------- Tiptree “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” Thomas Jefferson Posts: 13709 | From: Terre Haute, IN | Registered: Sep 2000  |  IP: Logged PaulCat Player Member # 513 posted 06-01-2022 07:21 AM                    I agree. I think Toppin should've played over Brooks. Brooks was just so inconsistent, but with Topping you just about knew what you would get each game. Posts: 10411 | From: Erlanger, Ky.

He will be a energizer bunny this year. -------------------- ukcatfannfl Posts: 8771 | From: Inverness, FL | Registered: Jun 2001  |  IP: Logged GA Cat Administrator Member # 642 posted 06-01-2022 11:51 AM                     I am glad he is back as well. I think Toppin's offensive game is better than most think. The form on his jump shot is really good. I don't want him taking three's, though he did make a few (most were desperation three's that went off the glass), but I think he could have a really good mid range game. But mostly, he is a good defender that rebounds, guards, and plays with energy. -------------------- Born Blue, Always Blue Kentucky Blue, that is...

He can be a game-changer in terms of interior defense, rebounding, and scoring in transition. -------------------- Tiptree “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” Thomas Jefferson Posts: 13709 | From: Terre Haute, IN | Registered: Sep 2000  |  IP: Logged
