This team is fun to watch. As the competition gets better, they need to play with the same aggressiveness and confidence that has given them success these first 2 games.
King and Hunt are a great backcourt. They get our guys rolling offensively and defensively from the opening tip.
Quinn is looking good. We haven't needed a lot of scoring from him so far, and will need him to score more as the season moves along because our guys outside will be less open with better competition. I think he will be ready to give us some big games when needed.
Bigs is looking good. Didn't force the 3 ball, and took what was there. We need his athleticism, size, and all around game out there, and he looks the part so far.
Noyes has been good. Nothing crazy great, but I don't think the fast pace, up and down style of these first 2 games suits his game as well. He will be needed more as the games get lower scoring and the defense we see gets better.
I thought our bench was great. Walz is looking better and better. He needs to eliminate the bad turnovers, but the other parts of his game have definitely improved. He can be a factor with his size.
Dji played another solid game. The wing spot has allowed him to not worry about other stuff, and be more aggressive on offense. The style of play so far has suited his game, and he needs to keep this aggressiveness and confidence as the year goes along, regardless of opponent and style. The 3s have been a pleasant bonus. Yes, they have been wide open, but his form and shot looks a little better this year. If he can just hit some every now and then as the season goes along, that will be huge. I wasn't sure about his minutes before the season started, but seeing him at the wing, I like him a lot in the 6th man role.
Roche did what we need him to do...3-4 from 3, and I agree with most everyone here about Tyne. He looks smooth out there, and looks like a senior PG. He is a good one.
I am liking the 9 man rotation. Minutes will always fluctuate, but the 4 guys on the bench bring a lot of different skills out there. As a bench, they have handling, 3 ball, defense and size covered.
Don't want to go too crazy about wins over bad teams, but so far, so good.
