I thought this was the best game of his young career. Excellent D, potent mid-range offense. He's starting to get comfortable.

 

[Palatine]

He really let the game come to him. He never forced the play but was still aggressive. His "D" was sublime. If his three was on, we win going away.

Agreed... Napier said a few weeks ago he needed to do more then shoot and this game he did.. great game

 

[mauconnfan]

Yep his defense stood out tonight........tough start on O some bad decisions and passes but all in all a nice game, good 2nd half........

Still think his size and athleticism should and could get him 4-5 boards a game easy!! He'll get there..........

I mentioned it in the game thread , his effort on defense is great. whoever he is defending will have their jumper contested. he has a very unique mid range touch but I'm still not sold on that shooting form

 

[mauconnfan]

I know what you're saying about his shooting form but he's starting to make me a believer.......he seems like he'll never get shots off and he does, especially the 12-15 footers........if it works don't change it!!

He's a NYC kid. Gotta believe that will ooze out sooner or later. I think we are seeing it.

 

[huskyharry]

Much better defense tonite...very effective shooting from two

Omar is talented and he does look more comfortable. He is also a freshman and sometimes it easy to forget that. His game reminds me a little of RIP and maybe by the time he is a senior he will be as good.

If his three was on, we win going away.

If Bazz and Boat didn't stink up the joint, we win going away. Omar had a good game. That bucket with 3 minutes left sealed the deal.

Omar's last 3 games are 22, 17 and 14 points on 20-31 shooting. I am pleasantly surprised at his midrange pull-up and transition game, especially when his 3's aren't falling. I think next year he will be our best scorer, maybe even this year

If he can develop his ball handling the kid will be a force.
