Ejim's hands

I agree and Chris Babb is Justus Thigpen

I can't decide whether to facepalm or LOL at this thread

I was thinking of Royce for the same and opposite things. He has hands like glue just like Big Vic but have also wondered if his problems from the FT line might be vision related. A lot of his FTs are way, way short ... like a problem with depth perception.

I think Royce's FT shooting problems are still in his legs. He may put his legs in them a little bit but it is still inconsistent. His worst misses are still when he doesn't get up on his toes.

Ejim just isn't a very coordinated athlete. When he's running, it always looks like he's on the verge of tripping over his own feet.

There a few few things I count on every game.

Melvin will cost Royce an assist due to his hands or not dunking it.
Allen will take an ill advised shot.
Railey will set an illegal screen up top, if he gets in.

Anybody else have any that they are sure will happen?

Royce is pretty much guaranteed to miss a FT.

You're right on here. Hopefully as he gets older this improves.

He played the way he needs to play last Saturday (taking the ball to the basket and not settling for 3's), so I'm not sure we should give him too much more to worry about.

In the post game radio interviews he said that was one of his focuses. He always gets these open 3 point looks but what he should do when he gets the ball is run in to the rim and get a dunk or layup or at worst take a much closer jump shot.

We will forget who we are guarding in the post.
We will miss at least three layups.

I thought about saying airball a FT, but that isn't every game.

Get him some contacts! I started wearing contacts in my jr year of hs and my eyesight is mostly fine without them. I really noticed the difference after a little while and it helped with hand eye coordination. Ie catching a basketball

Every 3 Chris Babb misses is almost always short. That's one thing I always know will happen. Other than that I still like Babb. And on to Melvin everytime he shoots that corner 3 it is almost alway an air ball long that being said I still like Melvin too.

Melvin's hands arent great... however, Percy's hands are terrible, he's got bricks for hands lol

My father-in-law usually doesn't say much about individual plays in a game but he was oohing and aahing over the play where Royce caught the pass across the top of the key with is left hand and instantly sent it right back diagonally across the lane to the open player. It was right on the money and pretty damned impressive.

This play is a play that scouts will drool at the mouth over. He passed it to Ejim(and he caught it) for the layup.

Incredible play but it was his right hand.
