Message: [QUOTE="huskymagic, post: 2094117"] We will utilize VJ and Terry together a lot to mitigate our big man problems and to mitigate VJ's lack of footspeed and athleticism on the perimeter. Durham has the best instincts and upside of the big men, the only thing he was missing was strength and confidence in his legs. Durham should be much better and more confident next year. If not then we have even bigger problems developing big men then we currently think. I like Mamadou as well. Mama is a strong body who wont get bullied with good motor and defensive instincts. Hopefully he is good to go because he is the Vital of the big men in work ethic and intensity. Enoch needs to move away from potential and start going to realization of his physical talents. He teases us with the offense, but rushes and misses so many easy layups, hook shots etc around the rim. Defensively he was backing up when Gary Clark was posting him up and either picking up fouls or letting him score. That should never happen when you have 3-4 inches on him and 30-40 pounds on a guy. Enoch is soft spoken and the problem with these types is that they play timid and unsure of themselves. Kid needs confidence. All of our good big men had confidence/swagger (Jake, Villanueva, Emeka, Boone, Thabeet, Andre, Donyell, Cliff). [/QUOTE]
