Delta first class > PJ


I would argue of all the cool things we got to try or do this is #1 on the list pound for pound.

The only debate would be a coach seat to a cool place over a FC ticket and weaker destination. Cool destinations + going first class is the best money I have spent.

The only real benefit of a PJ is you hop right on the plane and go. Which is intoxicating.

The biggest problem is you are getting second tier crew, weather cancels alot of flights and the insane cost.

First clsss airline tickets is no comparison to watches, cars or other stuff. Do yourself a favor and spring the extra $500-$600 on the ticket and thank me later.
Sounds like we are currently leading for Lewis and Wilson.

I’ve watched some more BYU games this week and Pope is always stoic on the sidelines. Doesn’t get on players, refs, coaches, rarely even claps. Just out there teaching constantly.

Defensively, he’ll mix things up after time outs, on free throw makes, etc. Half court traps, full court press but doesn’t do it a ton but it’s effective when he does.

He’s willing to go zone and even for extended periods (which I thought was illegal) if the game dictates it. They normally use a 1-3-1 that morphs into a 2-3.

He ices 99% of pick/rolls which forces the offense to go the opposite way they’re trying to go and you don’t have to switch, hedge/recover or blitz/trap.

He also preaches wedging for offensive rebounds and they had a pretty good offensive rebound rate last year. That’s basically screening to rebound and it’s hard to explain but you’ll notice it.
This is what gives me hope. You have to be able to adjust as a coach. Going to be so much fun.
 
Some nerves and turnover issues early but some really good takeaways from tonight. This is a very balanced unit and we’re 11 deep.


Chandler was the story, he’s tough, physical and makes good use of his hops. If he keeps this up he’ll get solid minutes.

Carr-crafty as hell offensively and makes good decisions with the ball in his hands

Williams-a monster physically and showed some offensive potential tonight. Pope will turn him into a pro. Unreal passer.

Oweh and Butler great defensively and their ability to get to the rim will be a nice complement to our shooters.

Robinson-quietly really solid game, that’s who he is. He’ll quietly put up 25.

Garrison-will produce with his minutes.

Brea-still getting his feet under him, he’ll be a weapon that can make contested 3s. Showed some playmaking flash too.

Noah-made some good hustle plays, knocked down a shot or two.

Perry-was a little overwhelmed by Butler’s and Chandler’s defense but he can eat against other backcourts in spurts. Seemed to handle the ball well, got more minutes tonight with Kriisa out.

Almonor-can stretch the defense and made some crafty plays.

Kriisa-hopefully was out with pink eye

Boat Bob is so pissed he didn’t get to do the PJ humble brag first.
