Thiero

It's an interesting dynamic. However, too many base decisions on one game. I see a lot of people back on the Cal bandwagon too after beating Auburn. We lose to LSU or Alabama at home and will some jump back?

I like Thiero's physical game. He is the only one that seems willing to mix it up. Even with the blocked drives it causes the opponents defense to have to protect the basket which helps our outside shooters if willing to take the shots. But, a healthy Mitchell is key.

Interesting on lineups to wonder how both would do with Ugo and then Reeves and Reed.
I love his willingness to take it to the rim but man to be as athletic as he is he gets his shot blocked a lot. I think it's because he has a lower release point on his shot when he drives. It is more of a scoop shot that is release about shoulder height than an overhead shot like Reeves runner that he shoots.
