Nick and EJ are horrible. They suck. You can see why Cal was begging for another big man this summer. And Whitley is a damn flop.
Our bigs stink
- Thread starter 3 fan
- Start date
The real Nick is back. 2 points and 0 rebounds. If the other team has someone over 6’5” that’s what we get from him.
EJ looks like Forrest Gump before the shackles broke out there. Like, he looks like he's just figuring out how to walk. Watch him try to run the court, like, just focus on him.
imagine starting a 5 star junior and a 5 star sophomore at C and PF and they are a detriment to your team
Yes they are TERRIBLE is an understatement.
How the f@¢k did Nick Richards get a five star rating coming out of HS? Just how? This is a junior center who still doesn't have the basic low post skills let alone any "5-star" skills
Worst set of big men every and makes the bugs in the ulis - Murray team look like the 2015 bigs.
When Richards cannot score he cannot rebound, play defense or not foul. It is all or less than nothing. So we have a non scoring non rebounding 7 foot foul machine in for most games

Our worst nightmare this season was Nick and EJ not improving a lick. And it happened. Sestina can score and can do a nice job stretching the floor on offense, but he's a major defensive liability.
I would've killed to have "traded" EJ for Blackshear. I could see this coming a mile away. I was hoping EJ and Nick would be serviceable at least, but they're not even that.

Give the Walking Dead zombies a basketball to dribble and you will see a amazing likeness to EJ and Richards.
But, but, but they dominated against all those teams without a legitimate post presence.
Have to get 2 big men like Cisse, Banchero or Omoruyi next season or it's more of the same. Hell if not then just run 4 guards, it's not like any of our bigs are getting rebounds now anyway. We'll definitely have room for 9 new players next year. Everybody's going G League, transfer or recruited over.
