Levy looked so slow



Bro he’s 7’3. There aren’t many quick/fast 7’3 human beings out there.

Which player has the funky left-handed jump shot?

I think it's relative Lester - what is your definition of being good? Is just making the tournament good? Is 10-8 in the SEC good? Is winning one game in the tournament good. And if so are you saying that the role players thunder mentioned are not capable of contributing enough to get us to that point?

And if not what is that line for you between good and not good.

I dont think anyone is expecting him to be victor wembanyama...but it's not a good thing when he's clearly a lot slower than anyone else on the court which is what matters in the end. If he cant keep up on a run or transition ever, he might as well not be out there as it'll be 5 on 4 in situations like that. You still have to not be the slowest guy out there by a longshot to having any staying power in a game otherwise good teams erase you.

Dessert and Ruzic are only a few inches shorter and WAY WAY more mobile than Levy is.

I'm not concerned about Clark. I saw what he is capable of in the FSU game.

To me the one thing that can take LSU to a different level is for Dessert to come along and become a force. Right now he is not comfortable with the speed of the college game and his hands have been a problem (turnovers).

I was hoping he would be a KJ Williams (Murray State) type talent from the jump, but he is not.

This team has Sweet 16 potential if Dessert can approach his ceiling as this season goes along.

Being good: let’s start with making the tournament. The barometer isn’t that high

If that's being good then I'll go out on a limb and say we can be that with the collection of players we have. Especially since it's now expanded to 76 teams so basically you have to be about in the top 50.

Can’t wait to watch Dent get a triple
Double really soon. He might get multiple this year.
