Toppin

[LukaszObrzut87]

Has serious game, I hope to see him get more playing time. Cal is the perfect ending to 2020, he’s lost his mind with this team.
I love Cal and don’t understand the hate but I do understand the judgment on his coaching. He needs to play Toppin and get him plays just inside the perimeter, let him take his man one on one to the block.

He's the only post player we have that knows how to create his own shot, he's also easily the most athletic and gifted of them all.

I’m excited about Toppin. Working hard. Will be here multiple years.

I wouldn’t bet the farm on that last part lol

 

[doc4UK]

He has a lot more strength and bulk and athleticism than other inside players

Toppin, Ware, Mintz and Askew at least play hard, like they want to win.

Id add Jackson to those four and you have our starting lineup.

 

[Emarc]

I like Jackson also. Athletic 6’10 guy.

Ummmm......we never know when these kids will leave.

 

[dckala2]

He makes Boston look slow twitch.

askew, Toppin and Ware are at least something to build around for next year.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

I like Jackson also. Athletic 6’10 guy.

Jackson and Ware both looked capable of dribbling and passing too on fast breaks at 6’10 apiece.

 

[bucsrule8872]

He’s 6’9-ish, under 215 lbs. and can dribble and chew gum at the same time, so it’s only a matter of time before he thinks he’s a two guard and starts complaining about how Cal has misused him in the offense by putting him in the post. Sorry just getting visions of Wenyen Gabriel in my head. It’s been a tough year.

 

[Calsarmy]

Im beginning to believe that Cal cant judge talent. This kid could have helped us early on.

Jackson is always in foul trouble. He has zero awareness on the court besides blocking shots.

He rebounds as well, leads the team Einstein.

 

[Cawood86]

Thought Toppin looked pretty good. Don't know how many minutes he got, but he needs more. Cal used to say this isn't communism, the best players play.

I guess that was just another usless quote. He obviously doesn't mean it.

Plays as if hes trying. More than ca be said about Sarr. 🤬

 

[wildcatglenn]

Toppin and Ware are coming along. Askew is improving also. I've been critical of him early, but he is starting to look the part

 

[chroix]

Toppin and Ware have both been bright spots in a disappointing season so far.

 

[Blouman]

Toppin has been productive in the limited opportunities given him. And I don't know
if Cal is willing to give him the opportunities.

 

[SkyPrince1]

Jackson needs most of his minutes at the 5. At this point I'd pull the plug on Date he's not invested and is not the future.

 

[seccats04]

He rebounds as well, leads the team Einstein.

Shows how piss poor this team is if he’s the leading rebounder because he’s always on the bench in foul trouble. The guy commits some of the dumbest fouls and doesn’t even know how to set a pick without moving. He has zero court awareness.

 

[NCPurplecat]

Toppin and Ware will be solid next year. Askew is doing fine for a guy who could have stayed in high school. Very young team. Jackson was known to need development and seems to have show some real ability. A lot of talent to build on.

Loved the fact that he used glass on that one post up in the first half yesterday. Looked like Tim Duncan out there.

 

[megablue]

He could have 3 more years.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Seems that Sarr is protesting something. Dude doesn’t look for the ball; not trying to get position, not boxing out for rebounds. It’s like he is pissed about something and just saying - “f-it, I ain’t gonna work if you don’t change something.”

 

[track42]

I really like Toppin.He seems to be a hard worker who wants to improve.

I called it out with the thread about his face against UNC but was told “it’s nothing”

 

[westerncat]

Toppin and Ware are the two players that have surprised me the most on this team. And i think we miss Kenny Payne more than people realize. Imo he helped the big men more than some realize.

 

[aikenite4uk]

He was productive against UL. He's athletic, with some moves, and has upside. Deserves more minutes.
