Love that dude. He can create his own shot and is one bad mother faulker.

He’s stepped up in a big way since missing that Auburn game

The offense already runs for him a lot of the time. Sometimes I feel like the offensive philosophy is predicated a little too much on having polished offensive players. Pin down and stagger screens are effective generally , but of the offensive player doesn’t execute, or the play breaks down it just leaves players out of a good offensive position, and we end up looking like hot garbage. It would be nice if Reid could develop skills for a pick and roll. But he seems to be limited to being a back to the basket scorer at this point.

Agree about Reid.. I’m not seeing much improvement in Reid.. I know the transition between high school and college can take a while but he should be demonstrating some type of improvement.. I’m sure good coaches such as Tasmin Mitchell are working with this guy but all I’ve been seeing is him pushing people on rebounds, moving screens and terrible slow footed poor selection of shots under or near the goal..they need to put some weight on him in the offseason and rid him of the passive play… he needs a mean streak and play with one..

He definitely needs to get a mean streak. Idk about putting weight on someone who is already slow and doesn’t jump well. Not to mention poor defensive footwork.
You can tell he has the ability to become a great post scorer, and the ability to pass ( maybe not the vision yet). he seems very much a spectator at this point. I’m sure he will improve, but of all the players who actually have minutes. He looks the most like a freshman.

We need Shaq to fly to BR and work with him b/c right now Geert Hammink would be a better option.

He's doubled his shot output the last two games (7.4 attempts a night the first 16 games of the season, 14 attempts per game the last two outings), but that came in two of the teams worst 4 offensive outings of the season.

I don't think the offense is bad because of him, I think it could be all that much worse without his contributions, but it kind of puts it in perspective.

completely agree. He can shoot, and create his own shot, and goes to the hoop aggressively.

With our offensive troubles, Murray needs as many minutes as possible and needs to take as many shots as he wants. Give him free rein.

Eason too, going to the rack.

And Mwani CANT go 23 minutes with 0 pts, 0 rebs, and 0 assists with 4 fouls like he did last game.

Especially when you first start playing basketball in High School.
