  • Agree Aargh. Ballard and Abidde have seriously improved from what we seen just a year ago. I like Bell taking it inside. He's got some moves when in there to get that left handed lay-up or flip. A pass every once in a while in the paint would really open up his game and become a true threat.

    Totally agree with Beverly's potential as he knocks off the rust. I believe that he will shine sooner than later.

    Ridgnal absolutely looks to be the part to ignite and be the energizer. He wants that damn ball everytime on rebounds and blocks.

    Pohto will Pohto. He's playing like a vet and you can see he's getting to the point of a savvy upperclassmen to hold his own with confidence and a plan.

    Get Germany up to speed this weekend and next and we got 8 heading into December.

    Lest not us forget Holy Colby! Not forcing and playing within the offense. Stroke it son!

    Keep up on the defensive side. Hope the injury bug keeps to a mild roar...and we got ourselves a real team that may just prove the naysayers wrong with a Top 3 (or 4) AAC finish.

    Fantastic job by our new leader Coach Mills for everything he's done so far.

    Go SHOCKS!!!!!!!

    • Ballard has been encouraging. When he gets it under the basket though he doesn’t realize who he is. He needs to cram it like that buzzard center a few years ago whose only shot was catch at 2 ft. and slam.

        That is just complete BS through and through.

            He's not the best post since the first Smithson era. Not even close.

            • He is definitely the post with the most potential, aside from maybe Shaq, in the last 34 years.

                  He's forever going to be underrated because he never got to show off his skills in the big dance (stupid COVID year)

                    Would also disagree with that.

                        Probably so.

                        • Echenique was special his senior year, He improved a lot from Jr to Sr so let’s give Kenny the same time to improve before we compare the the two.

                          • Echenique played in the league, after a long time of really really solid play in the G. Kenny will be a really solid player back home or in a non-Euroleague qualifying league.

                            There’s levels to this.

                              I assume you mean how the conference tourney will be setup. Im guessing top 2 seed get a bye, then rest will play in the first round

                                I guess we’re assuming Kenny cannot improve like Jaime did.
