Blue/White Night, 11/2 @7p (Updated)

Well now that's interesting. Roumoglou just holding the Jackson spot warm? Diarra a starter?

Last year one team in the 5v5 scrimmage was Cole, Hawkins, Martin, Whaley and Adama. Hawkins sprained his ankle shortly thereafter, but I'm fairly sure that's our starting lineup + Jackson. We'll see if they do different lineups in the other 2 periods.

Yes I remember last year there being a distinct starters team. But the Blue "bench" team was winning until Hawk got it going.

Hawk looks great. Alleyne will be productive and Joey California seems like a tough kid who will contribute. Not much from Adama yet. Diarra tough on defense in first ten min.

Always been this type of turnout. More than last year actually.

I went to the open practice Bouk's first year. The crowd tonight appears to be 5 to 10 times bigger than that night.

Hawk with the fadeaway corner there. Still on fire.

I really hope someone is getting solid video of some highlights

 

[bigknight3]

Springs subs in for Clingan with team White.

 

[husky429]

very, very concerning

He's saying it to make a point to the players. It's coach speak. Nothing to be concerned over.

No time lol! I missed the Adama three with my live updates!

 

[Vuce]

Newton with a nice step back 3!

 

[bigknight3]

Adama took Clingan off the dribble from top of the key, pump faked to get Clingan off his feet but missed the wider open mini hook shot.

Alleyne has tried to drink on Clingan twice... Didn't know he was that explosive going to the rim.

He’s been one of the highlights imo. I like this kid.

Hawk is the story though.

 

[bigknight3]

Hass might have the most consistent intensity throughout practice. Sounds like Hurley wants Newtown to match that energy.

Hass had been elusive with his dribble. But then turn the ball over on a pass that would've set Alleyne up with a shit to end the 2nd period.

 

[bigknight3]

3rd period

Blue:
Newtown
Hawk
alleyne
Samson
Sanogo

White:
Diarra
Joey C
Apostolos
Karaban
Clingan

[bigknight3]

Clingan looks winded half way the 3rd period. He's lost the weight but still needs more conditioning to keep up with our pace over long periods.

Teams had just went up and down the court in transition about 4-5 times.

I think who is out PG still a question. Hassan may be best off the dribble getting into the paint. But he may not have natural PG mentality.

Ran a pick and pop and dribbled into a double team on the baseline instead of passing back out to a wide open AK. After that Hurley pushing Diarra to settle down when he was initiating a set.

On D, Karaban called for a switch but Roumoglou didn't get the memo. Can see why Dan doesn't love the D yet.

 

[CL82]

Diarra a starter?

And once Diarra starts you know it’s going to be explosive.
