At least we played a team I know about, Spanish league level 3 team. All players around our guy's age, not like the D.R. national team who is mostly older (NBA aged) guys.

LSU seemed to have played well over there.
Im more excited about this team than I was before this trip.
Kent Lowe quoted as saying C. Cooper really played well in Spain. Really good to hear.

How many did Watford have? Excited to see that kid play...
From LSU basketball twitter:
quote:
Six players in double figures for LSU -- Days with 15, Watford, Mays, Manning with 14 each, Smart, Williams 13 each. Leandro Bolmaro leads FC Barcelona B with 17 with David Font 15.
The last 3 games the back end of the bench played a lot because we blew everyone out. I doubt guys like Watford, Mays, Smart played much more than like 20-25 minutes. They mentioned Smart and Mays specifically sat for the last 5 minutes of the game.

Well he basically didnt play against the only team that was competitive against us (D.R.). So I think a lot is still undetermined there.
The last 3 teams we played were all severely outmatched by us. I bet a few probably didnt even have much (skilled) height for us to compete against.

Even if those teams were out manned, we still did what we were supposed to do...blew them out. Wouldnt have happened 3 years ago. Would have been a tank game somewhere along the way. I continue to like what Wade is doing.
This was against the team with the 7-footer and potential lottery pick. I’m guessing he may be one of the two guys mentioned in their stat line. Good win. Wade said after the third game this team would be a little tougher with more size. Looks like we handled them just fine.

Today's team had a 7-1 player and Mays drove to the basket and scored on him.
I would love to see some video, but I think we may play a lot like Auburn did last year on offense. Motion, good ball handlers with dribble drive, get it to the rim for easy shot or fouls, and kick outs for open threes if we get defense in bad rotation.
We may not have the big shot blocker like last year, but our overall size on the perimeter is better.
Really am looking forward to Tiger and Pels basketball!!

Great trip for Tiger BB! Credit to CWW for how he mixed up the lineups, and got meaningful PT for his squad. Especially liked seeing players like Cooper (6'9") and Hyatt (6'7") get mins and produce pts/rebs. We'll need their size this season. Overall team looks fast, and athletic on both ends of the court.

Hyatt isn't 6'7. He is 6'5 and will hopefully be one of LSU's biggest 3 point threats.
Cooper played against the lower level competition, but wasn't necessarily out there much against the upper level (relatively speaking) teams. If he can give LSU 5 to 8 minutes per game averaging 2-3 points and maybe 2-3 rebounds, along with contesting a few shots inside, that's probably all you can really ask of him. I hope no one EXPECTS him to be a KBW type of player...that would be really unfair.
I'm glad you corrected the height on Hyatt. That was bothering me. While I'm writing, I will also note that the LSU website has Cooper as 6'8", not 6'9".
Kent Lowe is an eternal optimist and will always say the best things about LSU players. I'm not knocking that. I'm just saying, take what he says with a grain of salt.
I am hopeful that Hyatt will be a solid contributor this year.
I would be happy if Cooper can give 10 to 15 minutes off the bench without too much loss in production compared to the player he is subbing.

In no way do I think Cooper is KBW.
I just get the impression from some that he can't contribute much of anything. I think he will provide some acceptable minutes in limited action.
I also noticed that Days seems to have grown a bit. In some of the pics he seems taller than last year.

Looking at you T'bird!
I'm standing by my 5-10 minute a game prediction, and maybe like a 4/3 stat line
I will say he should get some minutes against some of the OOC competition, that may not be there as much when we play the SEC competition.

Coach Wade likes Cooper a lot, but he’s not as knowledgeable as many posters here, so I’ll believe it when I see it.

That would be a HUGE stat line for him if he can get it in 5-10 minutes of action consider that would only be a shade under what Days and Taylor averaged in ppg, and almost the same as what those two averaged in rpg.

4/3 was on the very generous side there
