Just got back. Fun time. I can give a recap on all the players I watched closely.

Daniel Edozie - Didn't really do much, but I didn't see an all out effort either. He is going to be a project but he could be a very big piece in 2014 if he puts in the work. Right now he has no shot though.

Sherron Dorsey-Walker - I don't know if he'll start, but he'll get big minutes. He is a SG/SF with handles who can also shoot. He is going to be big for this team.

Percy Gibson - well I was watching him until I noticed he was walking at all times. Scored a few times. Made 4 threes, 4/6 I think.

Percy's lack of working hard has been widely mentioned. Is there something going on with this guy? I mean, its almost too obvious. Why would he even want his teammates to be witnesses to it? Makes you wonder if he even wants to play.

Endozie looked solid. I don't know what everyone is seeing. He won't score a lot of points but I don't think that's why he was brought her. He is strong on the boards, has a good body and very raw. I like him. Reminds me of Ejim as a freshmen w/o the offensive scoring Ejim had.

Percy didn't cross half court most of the time. Walked a lot. Seemed very lazy. Has a good shot but didn't attempt to do anything inside. I was disappointed.

I thought Percy worked as hard as most of the players. No one puts out that much effort.

I also thought Percy was MUCH more lazy in the CCL games I watched last year.

I don't know why we even talk about the Bigs during CCL. They are the hardest to judge during this and the guards will also look better than they actually are.

22 said it best with the Sunday games.
Every year, people pick one guy to be the dumping ground for all blame and tons of criticism.
People have picked Percy this year. There's no real reason. It shouldn't be happening, but he's the guy people will be picking.

Edozie had 16 rebounds. That's not terrible.

Naz Long led the Iowa State guys (I think) with 47 points. That's not a surprise if you watched the games.

That is not saying much

Yep, that's what it is. I'm not saying that Percy had the best effort out there, but from all of the ******** I've read about it, I expected him to really stand out (like he did last year at the CCL). But he didn't.

You also have to note that he was playing the last game in a gym that was really, really hot. And his team had a 20 point lead for a lot of the game.

Of course not, but it wasn't any worse than anyone else's. I don't know why we should expect Percy to have more effort than the rest of his teammates. I really liked SDW, but his effort wasn't the best I've ever seen either.

Of all of the players, I thought Naz had a great effort and Hogue. The rest of them were fine and that includes Percy.

Wouldn't surprise me if the last words Fred said Percy were to not get hurt in the CCL. It's stupid for Percy to put up a lot of effort inside against lower level players in the CCL. There is NO REWARD because he's not working against similar talent and there is a lot of risk.

Then let's choose a different guy. I nominate Tyler Ellerman.

This is what I'm thinking. Especially since we're so thin at the post this year.

Since I'm white I thought it would be racist if I chose a black guy. :plaugh:

Speaking of white guys, I can't believe that, despite all of the white people on this board, nobody brought up the fact that SDW put up 45 shots without a single assist on Sunday. Get it straight fellow white people...Assists>Effort>Free Throw Shooting>Turnovers> :jimlad:

Everybody, lay off of Percy for god's sake.
