If Bruno played front of the rim aggressive like this in his first stop here, we would have never moved him.

Bruno has always played like this.  He just had horrible hands in his first few years in the league.

Trae and Bogi:  6 - 22 FG

Need to turn it up gentlemen.

[Chrimturn]

Needs to just go up instead of the power dribble.  Might get the quick basket and avoid a trip to the line.  

Or get an and 1…get 2 points and the missed free throw won’t hurt as much.

Do we just refuse to play defense and leave guys wide open for dunks?

You and I buttes heads on him a few times and for me it was always his reaction time and starting position.  He spent more time defensively being drawn to the free throw line and get passed behind. Tonight he's playing step out step in 1/2 way down the free throw line on both ends and cutting off his opponents angles. He's big. This gives him a huge advantage in shot challenges.

Forrest is a good defender.  Best perimeter defender on the team?

[kg01]

We make the game so hard. 

[terrell]

Wtf man.. Move the gdamn ball

Bruno with the block

[kg01]

Heh.  He said BruNOOOOO on that block. 

[thecampster]

Right there. BRUNO 2/3 down the lane, 1 step out, perfect position to smother that. That was not Bruno a few years ago. Someone broke it down for him.

Who was open?  Who was moving?  Who was trying to get it?  Don't just ball-watch and blame him for the lack of a pass. 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

7 points - 5 rebs - 3 blks for Bruno so far.

He should get about 3 - 4 more minutes before Okongwu subs him to close the game.

Very good minutes from him tonight, outside of the missed FTs.

[terrell]

4th qtr time..

 

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Forrest and Bruno earning their minutes tonight.

Horrible hands. I think you have him confused with CC.  Bad hands I'll buy. Not ready hands, yah. But horrible hands goes to bunny shot Clint.

Forrest has done some good things recently, credit to him

We Need players with his physicality but more talent.

[thecampster]

Simple.better than flashy.

Notice what happens when bodies move, @terrell?  Ball not sticking.
