Re: Hasheem Thabeet
1pt tonite vs. South Flordia tonite and he actually looked better than against WVU. He caught the ball much better and passed well. He had a few would be dunks negated by fouls on the catch & 1 flagrant foul that put him on the bench for a bit.
When someone scores 1pt and you say he looked better -- well that tells you something. Hopefully he rushes home and tunes in to Greg Oden on ESPN.
Continued his strong defensive play but he'll need to learn to try to avoid some of the ticky tack fouls. He positive about his defensive play that I haven't seen pointed out is that he rarely fouls going for a block. He uses his size well and doesn't fall for most shot fakes and holds his position well against his man. It will be interesting to see if the more experienced LSU front line can get him to fall for some of their post moves.
