Message: [QUOTE="Connecticut13, post: 5349543, member: 2146"] The two biggest positives were: (1) Point guard -- Malachi is an elite back-up pg. Alec was a pleasant surprise. He can play at this level and having him as a 3rd string pg provides for fantastic depth. (2) Eric Reibe -- He missed a bunch of bunnies, but I thought he looked fantastic. He moves incredibly well for his size and seems to have a strong BBIQ. As he matures throughout the season, he's going to be great. IMO, he's a future NBA player. The two biggest negatives: (1) We were heavily reliant on the three and couldn't make a shot. We need to attack the basket more and draw fouls. I hope this will change with Silas back. I can definitely see Malachi and Silas playing together to fix this. Solo is still a one-dimensional player. (2) Jaylin Stewart's defense. I thought team defense as a whole was very good - but Jaylin looked lost on defense. As a jr trying to break into the starting line-up, I expected more. Plenty to like. Plenty to dislike. Hoping for improvement against Michigan State. We're far from a finished product. [/QUOTE]
