I went and watched the first two pick-up games today. Disclaimer: I'm not 100% positive I knew who all the newcomers we're so if I mistaken someone please forgive me.
Game 1
Skins: DW, MA, TC, CE, EO
Shirts: JM, FVV, NW, JW, CH
Skins won the first game pretty easily. The Shirts weren't moving the ball well and the skins had several guys driving to the hoop.
Williams: I saw the slasher we all know today. Expect him to be the starting PG.
Armstead: Dude has some pounds on him. He picked a few steals, the Oregon steals record is legit. Kid had a nice take to the bucket in Game 1.
Cotton: Hit a three in game one, rebounded well and played hard. He'll see a good deal of minutes this year.
Early: Hit a few deep balls, definitely has range. HUGE WINGSPAN, HUGE. However I didn't remember seeing him drive to the bucket.
Orukpe: At times made a few good post moves and finished an alley-oop. He struggled to finish one time down the court though, probably missed 4 bunnies.
Mitchell: Hit a few triples. Not big enough to play the SF position, might see minutes at the SG.
Van Vleet: You can tell the vets want to show this kid his place. But FVV has some handles, and even in a pick-up game you can see the wheels turning. Most of the time he was looking to get his teammates involved but he did make a smoothe drive down the lane with a sweet floater off the glass.
Wiggings: Nick looks pretty thin, needs to beef up. Don't remember him doing much in the game.
White: I think most of us know Jake White isn't the type of player to shine in a pick-up game. Before the season starts however expect him to be battling for a starting position.
Hall: He looked uninterested. At least he's on campus and playing.
Game 2
Skins: DW, MA, TC, CE, EO
Shirts: RB, RV, EW, DG, CH
Shirts suprisingly got the win in game 2. Ron Baker went off, scoring 9 of the 11 team points.
Baker: Goodness. Where to start? He hit 4 triples, had a sweet drive to the bucket, and still managed to share the ball. I don't think he missed a shot. I had trouble believing the reports about Ron during past pick-up games but wow, he's really got some skill.
Vautravers: Uh....
Wessel: Still looks awkward on the offensive end. We know the kid can shoot it fairly well but I just dont see him as ready to contribute.
Green: Very raw. Reminds me a lot of Arbry Butler. His jumpshot is a little odd. Redshirt?
