Welcome Liam McChesney

[Redbird Alum 2004]

You can see what he looks like on the court in the last 6:25 of this game. Skip to 1:08:35. Scored a basket and had 2 rebounds.

Wow, his quickness stands out. He will do well in the zone on the baseline. His teammates missed him wide open multiple times. I think he can develop into a player for us.

 

[CB2K]

Welcome Liam! Looking forward to seeing you represent Redbird nation.

This is a great pickup. We now have some serious length And nice additions to the team.

 

[ILLST25]

Hopefully he turns out to be Kevin Durant

No . . . dammit . . . he's our next Karl Malone.

 

[WoodlandWarrior]

I’d be happy if he was our next Mark Zwart.

 

[RedbirdSoxFan]

How bout he be just Liam McChesney.

 

[ricohill]

I think his game is probably going to be more like Levi Dyer. I suspect he’s going to play more on the perimeter than inside.

thats one of dans problems is he wants everyone to play the perimeter. he wants 5 stretch 4 a 5 PG's and if were being brutally honest we dont have a really good one of either. nobody steals, blocks (except Ndiyae), passes well, very few can make free throws, dont pernitrate, i mean this team does nothng well.

Reading this made my brain hurt

I feel pretty good about the guards. Have a lot of numbers up front but so stinking skinny. Hoping some of those guys have a weighty summer and have big impacts. Would love to see Andrews have a breakout year.

It’s time for the Pernitrator!

 

[Redbird Alum 2004]

Freeman is a penetrator and he hits from the line, which he gets to often.

You must shop at the same stores as my wife.

We’re always hoping our guys gain bulk so they can toughen up for MVC play. Rarely (if ever) happens.
Maybe it’s time to take a look at our sad-sack strength and conditioning person (if we even have one)?

 

[TIMMY]

Bulk is great but you don't want a power athlete to gain weight just to gain weight. Basketball players need to get down the court and pay attention to their vertical jump. They also expend a ton of calories. If a body type allows a kid in any sport to put on weight and maintain their power, speed, and quickness that's great but being too heavy is just as bad as being too thin. Keep an eye on DJ at ASU. He'll get a little bigger because he's getting older but he'll never put on much muscle. I doubt the ASU training staff are a bunch of sad sacks and I don't think ours are either.

 

[bombay]

We're not sure this alleged sad sack exists?
