He might just be more of a 3-4 year player. I still think hebhasnt found his groove with this team yet, sndnthe injury didnt help.

 

[-BBH-]

No

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

A damn headache and a reason to curse even more.

 

[UK_27]

High blood pressure

 

[bigc45157]

If he stays, I think it all works out. I’ve heard he’s gone no matter what at the end of this season.

that’s the issue.

 

[Blue Bigfoot]

No, someone told him that basketball was a non contact sport....Apparently.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

He gives me a rash .

There is no question whether he is a 4 year player. We will be lucky to see him back

Theres no place for him in the NBA at the moment. Hes more likely to transfer if we get some bigs in
. But then again its a thin front court as is. He could get all he wants next year at the 4/5.

 

[kyboy1998_rivals34276]

He’s tall. He gives us that.

I hope you’re right. My line of thinking is he was nearly gone last year.

 

[BlueBomb]

Five fouls.

Oh for certain. And he probably will leave at the end of the day. But he does need to play better. If he continues this exact same play the NBA will move away from him.

He could either go undrafted this year and work his way up through the G-league, probably never getting anywhere.

Or he can come back a year, do what Nick is doing now, and possibly become a late 1st rounder.

Hopefully he chooses right.

Poor mans Skal

EJ is in a funk. I understand a slump on offense, but his defense has been horrendous

 

[westerncat]

Getting beat a lot on defense.

Has he ever shown you the ability to play Defense

 

[JwUKFan11]

He’s a great asset to Louisville.

 

[WildcatfaninOhio]

Blocked shot!

 

[jwheat]

Blocked shot!

Smallest guy on the floor on his hip....turnover

 

[so_obvious]

He just has zero offensive game. None. If it isn’t a wide open dunk / layup or an even more wide open jump shot, he just isn’t going to do much.

This makes his rebounding and defense that much more important. Unfortunately he leaves a lot to be desired in both of those areas. Defense has looked better so far today tho.

 

[GnarlsBarkley]

Yes AIDS

 

[villefan76]

A missed wide open layup in the first half. 6’11” and cost us 2 points.

 

[stoneycat_20]

Take out Maxey and the other 4 starters have 16pts combined...not going cut it

 

[JC43]

Ha ha ha!!!!
Wait til game over TRIX

 

[KentuckyMildCats]

He played terrible until overtime. Overtime he was hugeeeee. Great block and defense plus smart boxing out that he wasn’t doing earlier.

 

[poppycat]

No

High blood pressure

He’s tall. He gives us that.

What other options do we have? I like Brooks more, but he can't go 30. Sistena , good but not enough.

Yes, a 6' 11" guy for next year.

 

[jwheat]

Yes, a 6' 11" guy for next year.

Don’t be so sure

 

[indyblueblood]

He gives us size at 6’10”
Gives us 5 fouls to use
Gave us 4 pts, 5 reb, 2 blocks with only 1 turnover
Big play was the block shot in ot on Nwora at the rim

 

[somersetcat]

Very little

 

[jameslee32]

2 wins over U6.

 

[The_Catfather]

He doesn't need to be a world-beater, just serviceable. Few points, few boards and good D. He played well in overtime. Good to see some emotion out of him too. He usually plays and looks like he'd just smoked a bowl. Hopefully doing OK against a good frontcourt gives him some confidence going forward.

It's not a funk. It was this way last year.

 

[blubo]

He may not be great, but we need him. we barely have enough guys to scrimmage.

 

[caneintally]

. He gave us 4 pts 5 rebs and 2 blocks as the 3rd best big . I know he starts but we all know Sestina is better and Brooks is more talented. So as the 3rd or 4th big we did his job today and he can go off and will be in the NBA but it might take 3 seasons . He will have games this season again where he drops 20 and 8 as he has before .
