1) Whether anyone wants to admit this or not, we will be a LOT better with Sidney and Bost. Sidney will make us better defensively and rebounding just by being 6'10.
2) Kodi Augustus is a freaking joke. No effort. On the last play if he just goes up hard he at least gets a foul call and probably makes the shot. Instead he goes up soft and misses and we lose. In general, he should have dominated their bigs last night, but he didn't.
3) Also found it interesting that we played our best last night when we went small with Wendell as the one big and Kodi on the bench. Played better D, actually seemed to rebound halfway decent.
4) Twanny far outplayed Brian Bryant, who looked lost the whole time. He may end up just fading away because he just flat can't shoot. Airballed a wide open three.
5) Benock is a sneaky defender. He had a ton of steals and deflections.
6) Shaun Smith still doesn't look healthy. Looks stiff and subsequently slow. Seems to be on his heels a lot instead of up on the balls of his feet.
7) Ravern Johnson is still very, very good.

for all we know RS might be a lazy sob that sits on the perimeter and chunks. I have not spoken to anyone that has seen him practice or scrimmage, and heard them say that he will be a difference maker. Kirby said Augustus was the best perimeter shooter in the country for a big man....what a myth. We will see, but outside of Stansbury, no one has been very impressed with Sidney.

We can hardly help but be better when Sidney starts playing. We'll see, but right now I see us spending most of the season trying to adjust to playing 3 different lineups and another NIT bid.</p>
