I can't understand how our 2 centers consistently can't rebound or defend. Watson had a great offensive game, but because his defense and rebounding completely sucked today, it leaves me hissed off.

Smoke and mirrors. Look at Jalen Adams. Haven't the last two uconn pg recruits led them to national titles?

I'd love to have Jalen Adams but he hasn't lived up to his Top 25 ranking. He still can't shoot. He was ranked comparable to Dunn on ESPN.
But make no mistake, we could use him, especially next year.

Next year we will have two Top 50 PGs but perhaps nobody to run the point?

I think we'll be ok with mal, duke and even white if necessary...it will be different than having one guy lead the BE in assists...

I know that it could have happened anyway, but it sucks that KC gets re-injured on a possession that was kept alive by Young's bad rebounding instincts. Find your man and box, then react, don't just bury yourself under the hoop, particularly on a long shot. Rebounding 101. #pcbb

He was credited with 1 board. It almost seems difficult to only have 1 rebound in 20 minutes for anyone over 6'5". MAL had 2 and Edwards had 3.

I can't understand how our 2 centers consistently can't rebound or defend. Watson had a great offensive game, but because his defense and rebounding completely sucked today, it leaves me hissed off. me neither....total head scratcher Watson appears to have all the offensive ability in the world but how good is he gonna be if he can only grab 1-2 boards per 20 minutes?? Serious concern, and his defense is almost just as concerning. He has no idea what he's doing on that side of the floor. And MAL?? Looks like another Gerard Coleman to me.....basically a guy who could slash at will in the high school level but his game doesn't translate to the high major college ranks......need to get White healthy How does a guard get ranked in the top 50 if he can't hit 2 free throws in a row?? not buying his game at all......he can't shoot a lick......and he's not a center or PF.....he's your PG!! not a good passer either, need guards that can shoot/handle/pass ( or at least 2 out of the 3)
