is it me or has anyone else reminded of Skal Labisslere---when you see him play---highly ranked--highly recruited--but rarely shows in his game

Now that you say that, yes.

Yes also.

cc, i think you nailed it.

I just don't know why EJ seems content on shooting 15-foot jumpers. He should be playing in the paint for the most part.

With Nick playing the high pick and rolls, Ej should be under the basket reaping the rewards with dunk after dunk. Countrycat, you nailed it. He definitely reminds me of Skal.

Either Richards or EJ should go out and set the high screen, with the other posting on the low block. Then the screener should roll to the basket while the other big gives him some space via a back screen or just blocking out his man and preventing him from rotating over.

That way we either get an open shot with one big ready to rebound and the other rolling in also ready to grab a carom, or we get the ball to the rolling big for a layup, or a pass to the big on the block. It could be a beautiful thing if both Nick and EJ swear off the 12-15' jumper and decide to "man up" and play strong in the paint.

There were times last night when Ej,Juzang, Keion and whitney were on the floor at the same time and they were productive. It's amazing the progression this team has made. I hope it continues through the rest of the season.
