Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 4438958, member: 2844"] DC will be fine - even veteran players miss chippies down low - you can't dunk everything What impresses me is the fact that he doesn't appear to be in awe at all vs better competition. he is poised beyond his years and it makes me feel at ease when AS has to have a breather and when they play together. His ability to pass out of the post is exceptional (AS needs to observe) Hawk is still young and will be uneven at times. I had to smirk last night when folks were saying in the chat that he can't take it to the hoop. Nothing could be farther from the truth. CP3 stated that what impressed him about Hawk, besides his outside shooting, was his driving ability and his quick rise to the hoop. Hawk needs to learn how to relax at the start of the game - you can tell he is anxious. I feel he should try to head to the hoop early to get to the foul line and feel the ball go through the hoop. I think that might help him avert slow starts, His D is wonderful to watch. Newton was a force in the 1st half - don't know why Oregon left him wide open consistently. Ajax is an athlete. At this point he still hasn't developed into a basketball player. He should think of running track! His desire is great but it also is his worst enemy most of the time. Joey C can flat out shoot and that is needed. His man to man D is weak but he has a nose for the loose ball. Appears to be a good pick up by Dan Hurley Oregon was depleted and Bama won't be. If UConn can play at this same level it will be a great match-up. [/QUOTE]
