It's likely he played a little bit better when he was averaging 17.3 points in the first four NCAA Tournament games.
I'll be the first to tell you, other than this past weekend, I don't know anything about any of the four teams. I was making an observation about #41. He's their "big man" and he played anything but that. I'm not talking he had an off game. I'm saying he plays light, like a little man, who's afraid to throw his body around and fight for some boards, go up strong and actually challenge the other team. Aside from getting a lucky block, probably because he's so large, I didn't see anything all that great. I'm not ripping the guy. Obviously he had to be some kind of a great basketball player at some point in his life or else he wouldn't have gotten where he was. It just seems like for some reason he's playing scared. I'm not against this guy or the team. I'm from PA and although I wasn't cheering for UC, I wasn't against them either. I just wanted to see some great games, which I did!
