      I’m really excited to see what AJ can do with this roster. I think he has like 3 or 4 spots left to fill. Go UTES!!!

      Also shot 81% FT.

      My dream of having bigs who can shoot free throws is about to come true.

      This team is being strictly built around length, athleticism, and defense. Very strategic. That combination alone will win you games, if even out-talented. I see and like what AJ is doing. Get a few decent to good shooters mixed in and you have a competitive team. Go Utes!

        It is feeling a lot like a HOU roste, which I guess AJ did say the team as an example of a team he wanted to build.

        Amazing someone figured out that tall unathletic players can’t play defense or rebound. Times have changed and you better be athletic to compete.

          Right now we have athletic players. We need a tall and athletic player to protect the rim. That will be key if we want to play a high-pressure, aggressive defense.

        I like the athleticism. I’m not sure why you think this team has a lot of length though. Our tallest guy at the moment is 6 ft 9. The Point Guard on last year’s team was 6 ft 8. What we didn’t have last year was athleticism. I’m glad we have that. Now we need a rim protector or two and a shooter or two.

          Length is different than height

      Good pickup

      Now we NEED NEED NEED a rim protector (two actually), and at least one more shooter.
