People are funny. "Enoch looking in the wrong direction on defense", "pretty clear AB has an advantage over Enoch"...NO really? A freshman vs a junior who was once somehow defensive POY in the conference. I can't even imagine why he has the edge LOL. But with the snark remarks from some comes the reality of it all, he's not that far away because AB's stats went backwards from his 1st 2 years to his junior. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Steve's only get better and consistently. The guy you love so much still occasionally is looking the wrong way when the other team scores and not boxing out. That won't happen to Enoch. And blocked shots are overrated if a guy can play physical on the inside and actually guard a guy on the low post. Right now I agree Steve can't although at times he was the better option vs larger men. But neither can our other (s).

Your Brimah takes never fail to be bizarre and hilarious.
 
OP, does Dave Wingett know you've dropped him for Enoch?

And you bringing anything meaningful to the Boneyard still eludes you. But appreciate your take as lame as it always is.;)

I actually do bring quite a bit that is meaningful to this board. I won't bring anything meaningful in this instance, because it's impossible. There are very few things on this earth that are a bigger waste of time for a human than trying to have a rational discussion with you about Amida Brimah.
 
Welcome Enoch lover! Don't get overwhelmed at first. It is actually a pretty good board with a lot of nice guys.

I believe Enoch will end up being better than AB in almost every aspect of the game. It may be this year. Unfortunately, as you have now had it repeated to you many times, defense did not come easy to SE last year.

Sorry but I pretty much think every instance with you is a waste of time. Usually it would be responding to you telling someone they are an "idiot", unintelligent or alike. So I disagree about anything meaningful ever coming from 7774 but keep thinking you do ;)
 
It still bothers me Enoch's minutes didn't increase when Brimah was out for 6 weeks. Missed a huge opportunity for quality minutes and development.

when I saw the headline I assumed AB hired an agent

Yes. It is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username, and... I have a great one. [types] 'Little Kid Lover'. That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.

Are you serious or is this a joke?

I wish they had, as well. But he was absolutely flammable defensively, and not at all a deterrent at the rim. We were hanging on by a thread at that point, so we couldn't afford to have a 5 out there who pretty clearly didn't understand how to defend.

Credit to the kid: He improved immensely over the course of the season. If that improvement curve continues, he'll be a legit 20 mpg player next year, and a starter as a junior.
 
Enoch is allowed to make mistakes and learn and to do that he needs PT which he will get this season. Since he already has an offensive game I'm sure the coaches will be all over his defensive liabilities, but he has to grab this opportunity when given. I don't expect him to take Brimah's starting job but if they both improve we have a decent tandem which we did not have last year.

You became a Boneyard member well after T. Brown and J. Dyson left, so we've decided we're going to let this misstatement go without punishment.

Elite defender of what?
I like him but the only thing ELITE about him is his Nike gear.

Great talent, great potential, but he hasn't surpassed Brimah yet. Looking for him to provide big minutes off the bench this year, and eventually become one of the dominant bigs in the conference by the time he graduates.

Lets hope that conference is ACC, BIG, or BIG12.
 
In the words of Jim Calhoun, "the best thing about freshmen is that they become sophomores." I would expect improvement this year from Mr. Enoch.
