That was Oliver playing bad? Sign me up. I saw a lot of made jumpers in there. Love the pump fake and pull up of him and Poole.
-JO with a nice take and some nice midrangers. Looks more like he was in HS again. -Silas also looks pretty good in this and he still just has a bigger presence. I think we're gonna miss that if we go with JO. -Where are all the White highlights? Saw just the dunk and the 3. I was expecting more from all the hype. Did you leave em out? -Cole had a real lot of assists in this one. This was bad? -I still just like the way WB moves, kid is gonna play. -I remember why Hymes has always been one of my favorite players. Just fun to watch.
I wish I could watch the whole thing. Tough to tell much from this. Why is it so much harder to just show the whole video than to pick and choose clips again?
There were some careless turnovers there. The one Wright pass that ended in the dunk and the Paige one. I'm sure there were more.
That part where Hymes and Poole were playing catch behind the 3 point was funny now but if that happened in a real game I'd be pissed. They are both shooters. They were both open. Take the shot.

Good points KK
White hit a 3 in the corner and that is on the highlights. His D stood out along with the 3 and the dunk. He also rebounded well. I showed some of that too
Oliver did not shoot well that day and I only included his makes. It happens. He is still one of our best 3pt shooters.
It took some time to publish those 8 mins KK. I do this for fun its not my job. So I choose to take the time to put together highlights from the footage I captured on my cell phone. You should have shown up if you wanted more. IJS

Wasn’t like Olive played horrible – he just didn’t shoot well, those couple of baskets were his only makes of the day—it happens, not his best day. Believe me I’ve seen practices where Ryan has been on fire. As for White in addition to 3 and dunk he made several mid range jumpers, a big improvement in his game this year, he has developed a nice mid-range game ( I think White was leading scorer in scrimmage) .. those 2 turnovers ( by paige and Wright) were probably the two worst turnovers of the day..both were sloppy, but like I said not a lot of negatives—other than Oliver and Cole shot poorly ..Cole still made a lot happen, didn’t turn the ball over ( and he handled it a lot) and had a handful of nice assists, JO had like 3 dunks and 2 of them were direct result of nice passes by Pat. Silas made a few nice moves—as did WB and just about everyone did something positive other than Gottfried

No question Silas is more of a presence inside-- but he fouls like crazy ( we won’t miss that) on one play JO was on low block, pump faked Silas ( who bought the fake lock stock and barrel) and JO dunked it and Silas fouled him ( typical Silas play) – Jimmy was pisst to the max at Silas-- asking him how many times is he going to fall for that fake—and of course with ref Imoh has his typical illegal screen call also – so in a lot of way Imoh is his own worst enemy ..I think Imoh is going to play—but unless he can shake the relentless fouling and turnovers it will limit his play—but I’m sure there will be nights he gets more time… JO gives us much more offense—just as good or better rebounding, he isn’t as good a shot blocker as Imoh… one thing you can say about Imoh—kid plays hard and you can’t help but root for a kid like that

In Silas defense JO did not complete that dunk and someone else fouled him helping. That play is on the highlights.. Silas did bite on the fake and JO got to the rim because of it. Patsos was in rare form after that and of course that was not included lol

I wont put what Jimmy was saying... but that was prolly as mad as he got the entire scrimmage

I agree with everything said about Silas vs. JO except I want to see the JO rebounding before I believe it. He was nowhere near Silas in that regard last year.

Silas is playing well. I have a different take on it than Tony. And that does not take away from the improvements of JO. Both are ahead of WB IMOP as big men that can defend and rebound

Both are ahead of WB IMOP as big men that can defend and rebound I'm not saying he is playing bad--he just hasn't improved from last year, I dont want to sound like I'm pissing on kid, just that is making same mistakes he always makes, fouls, goes for pump fake and illegal screens-- kid plays hard very hard , but you cant get 1 or 2 illegal screens a game, go for every pump fake, and either foul yourself or have a teammate foul playing help defense.. for the good things he does those errors are major errors that can lose close games for you ... he really has to improve taking the bait for that pump fake-- just not sure its in his DNA since he tries to block everything.

I see some stuff got cut during editing. There were some missing baskets.. Hymes hit that 3 KK. It was good ball movement. The extra pass created a wide open 3 and a balanced floor for rebounding

This is practice. I hope these guys know eachothers tendencies. They need to see other teams to see where they stand. When are the closed secret scrimmages coming up? After that the staff will see what adjustments need to be made before the season starts.
As a golfer I have seen many guys who looks great on the range and once they hit the course lose it.

Seeing how the team came together the last half of the season (especially the last 10 games) it's good to see how much improved they appear to be in practice this year compared to last year.
Assuming they pick up where they left off (playing as a team) I expect very good things from them this year. The only new players in the mix are the 3 freshmen & Cole. They'll slowly get some playing time & should gel with the team . If not, Jimmy won't play them. I'm sure they'll figure it out just like the players did last year.
By the end of the season , I'd bet that we'll see Cole & WB with increased PT compared to the beginning of the year. They 'll be fine.
