Saw the Zags against St. Joes the other night. Obviously a huge blowout so not necessarily the best way to judge a team but.............
- Sabonis is legit. Got a LOT of his dad's smoothness to his game. Wiltjer is a stud too.
- Karnowski is better this year, but still a bit of an oaf. Good on the boards though.
- Depth is good on this team, very good.
- Defense is tremendous. I haven't seen a team play this kind of man-to-man D in a long time. Their switching and then switching back to their original man is amazing. This aspect of their game was what impressed me the most and was one reason St. Joes only scored 10 in the first half.
- These guys seem very unselfish and offensive ball movement is excellent. Not much dribbling and a lot of hitting the guy with the open look.
- They can score inside, outside and intermediately which means they will be difficult to defend.
If Bell and Pangos stay healthy, this team is a definite threat for that Final Four.
