Message: [QUOTE="UCfor3, post: 2060641, member: 567"] Brimah lacks reactionary quickness to be a good rebounder. He is stiff, and slow to change direction if the ball changes directiion off the rim. Any ball that doesnt drop directly to him when he is in position is not going to be his. He is a terrible rebounder if the ball is slightly out of his area and he has no explosion off his second jump which is a huge factor in good rebounders. He is good on the lob and he has his moments protecting the rim against certain teams/players. He tries but is limited by his lack of ability. He is always gonna be raw. When he has the ball in traffic he either gets stripped or travels. He lacks the footwork and basketball insticts to yield a positive result the majority of the time. His motions are so mechanical, like he is trying to do what is taught, but he just lacks that natural feel that the better players possess. Throw in the constant foul trouble and the bad hands and you have a divisive and frustrating player that can win you some games but doesnt show up for the majority of them. My biggest beef with him is since his first year it seem the bigger the game the smaller he plays. He gets some bad whistles bet geez he almost asks out of some of these games with his dumb fouls. We may miss him next year in some respects more than we think in our present frustration. I do however think we will be better off in the long run, especially offensively with a center with a better feel for the game. [/QUOTE]
