Gibson = Huge Beast down low. Very strong and not afraid of contact (in a good way).

I'd say he's playing like Godfrey was last year at the end of the year.

I'd say smoother than Godfrey but less explosive. Doesn't include the rim-punishing thunder dunks. Smooth and strong, Gibson is very effective.

Yeah we are getting lots of dunks from everyone this year, I'm ok with Percy just being solid as a rock.

I didn't have high hopes for Booker to start the season, but I will say that I was pleasantly surprised at his early games. I hope he keeps his head up and works through whatever has him in the doghouse right now.

I don't care about dunks, I care about touch. Gibson seems to have a nice shot and feel around the basket, he doesn't clank it and chuck it up there. You can see Gibson could be really good for us. Gibson is going to be on the floor a lot and most likely a starter.

Gibson has improvements to make, but looks great for a freshman big. No, its not just this game. In his 5 - 12 mins/ game before this, he has been effective also.

Great touch, long arms, knack for rebounding and catching passes in the post. Not as powerful or energetic as Godfrey was, but with instinct, and nifty moves.

Until Booker proves that he isn't completely underwhelming when he is on the court....I really don't care if he isn't getting playing time. Percy on the other hand has been very solid in his minutes and I'm glad to see he got to play more tonight. Even if it was because other players were being disciplined...he clearly stepped up to the challenge and took advantage of the extra time on the court.
