My takes from today:
1. Obviously Booker was stellar. Super efficient both inside and out. But what I liked best was his rebounding aggressiveness. 17 OReb as a team is awesome.
2. Fidler is our Steady Eddy. He is super smooth in the midrange and I like that he draws fouls and cashed in the FTs.
3. Cooper had a quietly really good second half, nearly posted a double double by the end. He is clearly ahead of Z in the pecking order, who had a rough day.
4. Really nice to see Kohler get some extended play and make the most of his minutes. 13-12 double double screams improved effort.
5. Fears when he is dialed in can and should be this team's closer. Big upgrade at PG methinks.
6. Teng and Jase both had some really nice moments, you can tell they play with a lot of confidence. It'll be hard to keep both of them off the floor, however they will need to go through the usual freshman growing pains.
7. I hope Akins and Holloman either had too many sangrias or were just jetlagged. Combined 2/20 from our veteran SGs is a big time yikes.
