re: AU BBall Thread : Just kidding we don't have a team (12-13, 4-8) UPDATE 2/16

games are much different than practices/scrimmages in this regard

Doesn't help when you don't have a healthy guy on your roster that can simulate opponents 6'6+ C/PFs. I'm sure it is easy for him to stuff Bower's shots in practice and so hard to get it through his head that not all post players are 6'5 like at AU/HS games

The only real solution is playing time.

This is what hurt about Reed not being here for first half of the season. All the games with teams that weren't good enough to overwhelm Reed like ULL, Coastal, Milwaukee etc have come and gone.

However, where he can help this team right now is by just being tall and playing defense like a raw 7'2" guy should.

They really need to make a rule for him that his hands should be straight up at all times on defense. He'll look like a goon but be the most effective defensive post player we have.
