Subject: Dear John, your evaluation of SG is on the money, but I can't say the same for your opinion of MB. "Crashin' the boards" in that last game with GW ? Hardly. MB had 28 minutes of PT, and came up with one rebound ! The 2004-2005 season shows MB played in 25 games, with 306 minutes of PT, while haulin' down 49 rebounds. That makes for 1.96 boards per game. He was usually on the outside, chuckin' from downtown, and, by doing so, did not position himself for rebounds. IMHO, MB just doesn't have the game smarts, at the present time, to make him an effective ballplayer. Durin' that last game with GW (I viewed it several times on tape), MB seemed to respond, after the fact, to many game situations. GW, would slash thru the paint, with MB, trailing several steps behind, flailing at the back of a GW jersey. In order to realize his potential, MB has to learn to anticipate the action on the hardwood. With additional coaching, and more playin' time, this may, or may not, come to pass.
In reply to: Bronx Boy 's message, "I'd have to side with RB on this one Wram, at least when it comes to your statement that The Sea Bass is a horrible shooter. What, exactly do you mean by that ? Do you mean that his mechanics are not up to par, or, do you mean that he is not an effective scorer in an actual game ? During the 2004-2005 season, the Sea Bass shot .434 (33-76) from the floor, making him the third most effective field goal shooter on the team, with only BD at .520 (154-296) and The Moosh at 86-164 (.518), more effective scorers. SG was also the number one foul shooter for this young ramlet team, hitting 90% of his attempts at the charity stripe. At 6'8'', and tipping the scales at only 188 lbs., however, he will get banged up playin' in the paint, so he might beef up a bit, during the off-season, to have a more effective inside game. I'm just curious as to why Coach Whitt did not give him more game time." on Tue March 22, 2005 22:32:33
