Gu

Post by LA_Mustang »

Tweeted last night that he's ready to go. I'm really excited to see him play healthy. Will be a great addition to the roster.

Jank says we'll shoot more 3s this year. If so, guys like Gu will be important, because more 3s mean more long rebounds.

I think Gu will benefit from playing under Jank. Should be less stressful for him and he can relax more now. He seemed to play tight under LB.

THIS exactly....long players=long rebounders..

We should get our share: Gu, Sterling, Jarry, Semi, Shake et al. but lets hope 45 percent of the three pointers don't require rebounds.

It will be interesting to see how far his shot has come along. He became a very strong defensive player at the end of his first year here.

Shake - Gu - Starling - Semi - Ben
McDowell, Wilson, Foster, Froling off the bench.

Lots of small lineups and a lot of press...

Interesting you immediately put Emelogu into your starting line-up. It will be interesting to see where he is actually at with his health/game.

If Gu is 100% I also think the starting lineup is Shake, Gu, Sterling, Semi and Ben.
