Samson not going to give up on being a starter, I'm sure that all his offseason homework is being attacked with a vengeance.

Interested to see what Reed brings on the defensive end. Looks like he will be pretty tough to handle offensively. Am I wrong in saying that he is a bit bigger than Adama, maybe appreciably? Can't imagine he's as physically strong as "Nogo" Sanogo was.

Looks like if Reed develops quickly, we could lose Samson and Tarris at the end of this year.

Said it on our podcast with Hassan. Reed looks similar to Alex Oriahki, only Reed gets off the floor faster.

He and or Johnson have to step up on the defensive end.
I’m more interested in his defensive footwork .
and use of his length .

What I like is that he plays big. If he gets a guy on his back or hip, he uses his combo of speed and physicality to keep the guy there and not get back in the play or back between him and the rim. And he looks like he has 'feel' around the rim with both hands. Some big guys, no matter how hard they try, never learn how to really put the ball up soft on the rim.

If Reed is good we will win every game, not ref effected, by 30 points. Simple as that. We are three deep of quality at every other position.

Strength to play through tough contact against other bigs, that’s what Sanogo had.

Careful! Don’t you dare bring up Sanogo as a comparison to Reed! Blasphemous!

No, you are right of course. Just an unbelievable player for us and is he going to get the chance he deserves in the NBA? No one more deserving than Adama. I want him to to get that.

Don't sleep on Youssouf Singare, he may carve himself out a 5 to 10 minute role per game this year. Hurley didn't run him off for a reason and he stayed for a reason. And to be fair in the limited chances he was given he did not look like he wouldn't help if given the chance. Remember the first St. John's game with Clingan out he played some key 2nd half minutes when Johnson and Karaban were in foul trouble and acquitted himself well.
