Basketball starts tonight! Jackson State @ NC State

[Texpack]

Abu is a tad swayback like Walt Bellamy

[wufpup76]

Lacey looks good early – both in scoring and running the team when Barber comes out

Anya a slow start w/ an early foul and a misstep on D allowing a bucket

[BJD95]

Caleb making a VERY strong case for “Twin A” honors. Silky smooth on both ends.

[wufpup76]

Block party

[Texpack]

Martin does look good so far

[BJD95]

HippoSLAM. Lean, but still mighty.

[wufpup76]

For all of our size, we don’t have many post-up offensive threats at the moment.

[Texpack]

That was a textbook entry pass by Martin.

[wufpup76]

Anya doing his best ‘Richard Howell’ out there … picking up some needless fouls early 🙁

He’ll get there though … he should have a great season

[Wufpacker]

Very happy with Twin A so far. Almost as happy with Abu and Lacey.
Damn Cat is a quick mofo.

[BJD95]

It’s like Lacey and Barber have played together 10 years.

[wufpup76]

Barber and Lacey the dynamic duo so far … perimeter guys really scoring the ball – a great sign.

[wufpup76]

Barber and Lacey are all over the court and look great. Looks like they’re having fun.

[wufpup76]

Barber hits a second open three … this is a huge positive takeaway for me

[Wufpacker]

Barber confident from the perimeter won’t hurt. Really liking the Barber/Lacey two man game.
And as someone said earlier, they all seem to like playing together, which is huge.
D is more than satisfactory as well.
An early Yay.

[BJD95]

The overall fluidity is a joy to see.

[Gowolves]

I have to temper the expectations but they look good. Lacy looks real good

[Wufpacker]

LOL. Yes, tempered expectations is always a good idea.

[BJD95]

Nice hustle by Twin B!

[Wufpacker]

Maybe Twin B has hope.
And Frenchie with the J…whoa.

[wufpup76]

Lennard w/ the 18-footer!

[Texpack]

Frenchie!

[BJD95]

Frenchie hits an 18-footer, for heaven’s sake!

[inhoc…]

The one thing Jackson state is better at is free throws. It’s troubling to see that sinking free throws hasn’t been a major point of emphasis/improvement over the offseason…

[wufpup76]

Really like the make-up of this team. Quick on the perimeter, long and athletic on the inside. This could be a really solid defensive team … we have guys who can hit jumpers.

Get this thing fine-tuned by late January / early February and we could be a tough out.

(Yes, I know we are playing Jackson St. – just commenting that the team looks to have good potential.)
