In for the whole OT, great effort by both - I'm a little less concerned about our depth underneath after tonight!

Surprised to see both get so much PT in such a difficult environment and then in OT no less. JT3 just knows how far to push the buttons on this team. Great coming out party for Nate and Henry. Depth may not be such a problem in the frontcourt this season.

Sims is like a different guy out there this year. LOVE IT! It is all about the confidence, both his own and the trust JTIII has shown him. |

Nate will come around. We'll see what happens with Moses. Julian is great (when he plays).
But the story of this season so far HAS to be that Henry is absolutely 100% a legitimate big this year. He's doing all that we could ask of him, and in the first half, he showed some offensive moves that I hope to see more of in the future (e.g., the turnaround jump shot just inside the free throw line).

Lubick played a great all-around game. He fought constantly underneath and generally passed well on the perimeter. You can tell he has a good basketball IQ and has caught on to a complex system very well, and it it still November. While Benimon has a slight experience advantage Nate knows his hoops and is bigger and tougher.
Sims also continues to impress. He has good court sense and is becoming a terrific passer. He is like an x-factor with his length and is a tough match up for certain teams. Just a great night for both young players.

I'm not sold on Lubick. We're playing with 4 offensively when he's in. He bricked an open layup tonight & had some awful turnovers. Henry is clearly the best post defender on the team. I would love to see henry & vaughn on the floor together at times.

Last year I cringed when he came in. I saw him put the ball on the floor tonight - it's honestly like it is two different players. |

everybody is rightfully applauding Sims, but I agree that this was a great game for Lubick too, even though he didn't put up huge numbers.
lots of big hustle plays and toughness from Lubick tonight

Nate is ONE MILLION TIMES better than Benimon. It should be Hollis and JV, followed by Hank and Lubick, then Moses, then Dougherty, then JTIII's 8-yr old son, then Benimon as our front court rotation.
