Message: [QUOTE="jibsey, post: 2426530, member: 859"] I focused directly on Gilbert from my seat tonight and here’s what I saw: He;s a solid athlete and undersized even for a point guard. Everyone he guarded had him by 6 inches or more. Very strong with quick hands but he gambles on D and sometimes gets burned. KO was in his ear several times with that. He passed open 3’s early, hit a couple later but he’s not a great shooter. He drove the ball into the trees with no result several times and this continues what he has been doing. It’s like he thinks he;s still in HS. He fights hard for rebounds and had 6 tonight. I think the shoulder brace is an issue for shooting somehow because last year he pulled up from inside the 3 line very well, he’s not doing that, it’s drive or 3 or nothing. We need him to be good this year. I understand the way fans feel seeing him play because he came to us with a 5 star rating, right? That’s a player that is supposed to stand out even as a freshman. I just don’t know if it’s the injury that has caused it. [/QUOTE]
