So, i just got back from the game, here's my observations:
I wasn't overly impressed. But, it early.
There is certainly talent on the court, and skill, but they still need to be coached up quite a bit.
Not surprisingly, nobody looked too comfortable in the half court offense.
But, with more reps guys will make quicker reads.
Obekpa is a special shot blocker, reports are not exaggerated.
But, he got boxed out twice that I saw on defense, and picked up a foul on one of them. The guy who got position on Jim was 4 inches shorter and could barely jump, and I hate to say this but it was really just a case of laziness/ lack of agressiiveness. Im sure the staff will correct that over time, but.still.
Phil looked very good. I forgot how good his handle is. He's able to push the pace like no one else on the team (maybe Branch down the road).
Was really looking forward to seeing Orlando and Marco, hopefully Tuesday.
