Thiam will be a great player once it starts to click and he gets experience. Long , tall, mini Kevin durant.

Ladies and gentleman, Thiam. His jumper looks sweet now actually. The release point has changed from last year. Great sign to see him confidently raining 3's.

Thiam just gained confidence and Is releasing it faster. Looks very good. Young guys have so much potential.

Baker's shot looks so smooth coming out of his hands. Seems like he should be shooting 40% from 3 but he's just been so off. Confidence maybe?

I have no clue what the board thinks about his NBA potential. Considering the last two years he has almost opted for the draft, you speak as if it is an invalid subject.

Cali, Sanders seems to have peaked under EJ, when he apparently had free rein. Didn't watch them much--it was too ugly. He went to the NBA draft preview after EJ, and seems to have been told that he had too many holes in his game. Doesn't make good decisions, not a great shooter or dribbler or passer. Probably going to lose minutes to Baker. It is unfortunate, but he hasn't made much (any?) progress since Freshman year, and that year may have been part illusion since we didn't have much else. Could he play overseas? Like in Outer Mongolia? Lots of guards, world wide, that want to play pro ball. Stay in school, graduate and maybe coach. Gee, our two Freshmen look like they will be fine players down the road.

There are a million leagues out there now. I'm certain he could play in some of them. Maybe not the top Spanish division but he can play somewhere.

Another poor selfish drive by Sanders, and the expected charge call. He is such a frustrating player. Such athletic talent, but bad decisions and poor shooting.

Sanders has a shot at a double-double. I don't mind him handling the ball, honestly.

Also it seems like Souf is in Pike's doghouse. Haven't seen him even up 20+ in the second half.

Still looks like a team of bricklayers. More clanking than on a chain gang.
When's the last time we hit seven 3 pointers in a game? It's called progress. Looks like Pike is finally finding some outside shooters. In only year 2.

Fouling a player while in the act with a foul to give and less than 2 seconds in the half will do that . . . hope he’s enjoying his puppy chow.
