So if HCPM plans to play a 5-out, none in offense and our opponents agree to play strictly man defense he looks like he could be effective. At least that is pretty much all I saw in his highlights posted to the thread. But I trust HCPM and his staff far more than myself to make those judgements about how he would "fit".

Who is posted up at the Great American Cookie Factory in Towne East?

MIght need to order online from the Great European Cookie Factory and it's possible it might have to be kosher.

I'm kind of surprised at all the Gal Mekel hate. The dude got some decent NBA minutes.

I'm pretty sure most of it was sarcasm...

Paulino is also following.

Xavier Holland too.

And I suspect that is the reason Taylor Eldridge is following. Which is smart on his part. Follow who the Shocker coaches are following.

You meant if our opponents will play strictly zone defense?

Okay, I'll admit the Italian 17 year olds made him look really, really good. Let me see if I can find a playoff game or maybe check the rankings to watch him play against the best competition he has played against to be sure I wasn't too hasty.

No. His highlights looked to me to be 5-out, none in offense running against a man-to-man defense and he was effective. So if our opponents agree to pay straight man-to-man and the Shockers run a 5-out, none in he could be effective. How effective he would be otherwise (including against a zone defense) is hard to evaluate but I am sure the Shocker coaches can evaluate that much better than I ever could.

Not sure the Shocks have the personnel to effectively run an 5-out offense and even if they do not sure how it would work against AAC defenses.

Watched a minute and a half. Missed the exciting part, I guess.

37 of them were KungWu…. Most impressively all were typed left handed as his right hand was occupied.

Still is.

You should have put chicken **** somewhere in that post. That way you would get an auto-like from Kung Wu instead of a perma ban.
