We've got a big enough sample size now. What three players top your list on this team? I got a go 1) Butler, 2) Oweh and 3) Carr.
Butler, Oweh and Carr-Brea (tied, varies from game-to-game with them, based on performance ... I like them both) !!

I'll tell you why I put Carr first. In the UL game, Travis Perry threw an errant pass to Carr on the sideline which he couldn't handle. You could tell Perry was upset with himself, and Carr walked over to him and put his arms around him and patted him on the back. No peevish, sideways looks like you see with some players when a guy throws a bad pass to them. That's a leader and a great teammate. I'm sure the other guys are equally good people, but that simple gesture told me a lot about Carr.

I'll go with Butler, Oweh, and Darbyshire because nobody else will even give Grant a sniff.

I tried. The first 2 are easy and the same as most. The 3rd is a game by game decision. Cannot just have 3.

I can’t get it down to three. Best I can do is Butler-Oweh-Carr-Almonor.

But Garrison is really threatening to piss all over that.

Also I’m one of the few who has stayed very high on Kriisa all along.

Oweh, Butler, and Carr/Kerr are tied for 3rd. I just love Kerr and his fire. I think he’s a huge part of the team from an energy perspective along with some shooting and ball handling depth. Like many other I’m a huge Ansley Almonor fan and I think he’s should get a little more run. I want him firing up many 3’s.

I have a 3 way tie.

Butler, Oweh, WIlliams as they are possibly the best defender in the nation at their respective position.
I think Williams can be if he would contest more, and play with more energy. I love his potential but we need him to hit it this year.

Oweh Butler Noah (asked favorite not best)

Oweh 1. As he brings it every gsme and always making key big plays. Not even a question for me as Oweh wins us games. Hes not pretty , has an ugly shot , no real finnesse to him he just makes plays when we need them most.

That’s good reasoning. I just love how reliable and mature he is. I feel like whenever we need a bucket in a tight game, he makes a solid move in the post to get it done. I feel like he’s the most seasoned veteran on the team and your observation is further evidence of that.

Butler, Oweh, & honestly cheering for Garrison. He has real potential. Especially if he improves on the defensive end.

Carr, Oweh, Almonor - for myself, in that order. Preseason I was just so caught up on seeing Williams play for us, the rest .... They just had to be a great surprise for me !

Loving me some Ansley this year, I will say, the more I see of him, the more I love !

Everyone else is glue. ALL are leaders.

Butler Oweh, and Williams are the three headed hydra
Carr is the demolition man
Brea and Robinson the marksmen
Ansley and Garrison are the X-Men
Kriisa is the Energizer Cat
Chandler and company are the victory cigars

Just the Runt's humble opinion. All are greatly deserving of my thanks and well wishes, because in the end, they are ALL favorites of mine.

This is a very special team

Go Big Blue !
