He's a great effort guy to bring in for short stretches, but if you're relying on a guy like him to be a major contributor, you're losing the battle.

I would have to imagine we will see a lot of pick n roll action and that may not suit Eliel. But I hope we don’t see much more than 15 mpg from either Eliel or Nas. If Scott gets 30 that leaves 20 mpg for small ball action.

So how would you distribute the minutes for our bigs, he’s still raw I agree, but he’s the best chance we got imo. Cronin was right when he said eliel knows who he is, so he isn’t going to take a lot of bad shots.
He’s the best rebounder on the team and it isn’t even close.

Scott is very good on the glass as well. Especially the offensive glass.

Scott is pretty good at rebounding, not even close to what Nsoseme is

By playing Nsoseme, we really aren’t giving up much offense . I mean brooks isn’t offensively skilled. Only better scoring lineup is small ball.

honestly i dont want to think about it. Nsoseme doesn't even look to receive a pass on offense, nevermind actually trying to score. the way mick talks he's going to force the minutes to brooks, like he does with jenifer.


scott and nsoseme were almost dead even last year in rebounding %.

both are very good on the glass. Both centers will see plenty of action with 10 fouls to give.

problem is both of them could get those 5 fouls each in 10 minutes of PT

Exactly!! PT will definitely be determined by which can stay on the and floor what is needed at the moment. Who starts is really irrelevant.

The majority of Nsoseme points will be on putbacks, I’d agree he so far doesn’t have great post moves, but I just feel like he’s a better option than brooks and I thought that last year as well.
