Brimah

[Rico444]

This kid is ridiculous. In the last 8 minutes, he played like 08-09 Thabeet. Played really well against Memphis, too. Might he be peaking at just the right time? If he keeps playing like this, maybe we have a run in us.

People say it all time but it's true. At this point in the season, they aren't freshman anymore.

I was thinking the same thing.
He is basically a sophomore now!

Great minds!

He's kinda fun to watch

Our defense is at another level when he's on the floor. His rebounding rate has been improving. Big key is staying out of foul trouble. Love his energy & passion. Keep it going.

He also is one of the greatest dead ball dunkers I've ever seen. I wouldn't mind seeing more of that while the clock is ticking.

He should be fun to watch as he progresses.

Lets not get carried away, he will probably get abused tomorrow night like he did the last time we played the Cards.

Who cares about tomorrow (today actually)…..he just helped beat #13 and tonight is another night…..enjoy it, he was excellent

He was great tonight for sure

Brimah was the difference in the game tonight. He's an absolute game-changer on the defensive end, and that dunk he had off of Boat's wild shot was key.

I actually like him coming off the bench though. Both he and Nolan tend to get into foul trouble, so let Nolan get the first one or two, and then bring Brimah in as the rim protector off the bench. The changes Ollie made to the lineup have really been spot on.

They need to start strong and keep Louisville off the boards and avoid run outs.. easier said than done I know..

Wha'? Cum again?

 

[aceboon]

completely changed a game vs a top 15 opponent, he's gonna be scary by his junior year, wouldn't be surprised to see him become a dominant defensive force as his soph year closes.

 

[Jaker]

If he would learn how to score, he could be Patrick Ewing in a couple seasons

You seem pretty miserable.

I don't know if you BB fans know about this, but Coach Diaco brought in a big-time strength coach from the SEC.

The football players are already saying they are in the best shape of their lives.

Can't wait until he has an off season with Brimah - i bet he puts on 20 lbs.

Pitino has taught those two bigs to toss everone in blue around. Brimah has improved his rebounding DRAMATICALLY. daniels when motivated can lay his body on the line for the rock. We will need our high level defense to continue tomorrow, napier can't take the first half off on defense.

 

[UConn17]

I love Brimah going up with two hands and swatting the other teams shots

Whoa whoa, we can't entice NBA teams to much. We need him here 4 seasons.

I was so disgusted by your avatar that I decided I needed to copy it. Brimah was the biggest game changer. I feel like his plus minus was awesome but I don't have the stats.

 

[James]

brimah was something outrageous like +15

AB is going to be a beast next year. He is the most athletic 5 that we've ever had, and he's a good FT shooter, which will be a factor once he starts scoring more. He's also got an upper body that can fill out.
