Jordan Mickey 102 blocks on the year

Post by PonyPlayer4 »

Jordan Mickey has 102 blocks on the year. If I remember correctly, wasn't this more than the 7'6" kid had on the year from UCI? If will definitely be another game where the opposing team has a great presence on the inside.

Hard to shoot high enough for him to block.

While I do predict that we win - this may be some sort of record tonight ... Markus could possibly get stuff at least 20 times. He's quite talented at it.

The best way to get the ball over Jordan Mickey is to go right at him. He is a very good secondary defender, but he has struggled pretty consistently at actually guarding people on his own. Posting up on Jordan gives you a much better chance than posting up on JOB because Mickey loves to come over top of JOB.

Mickey's defense can be game altering at times. He is a very quick jumper which has allowed him to jump after the offensive player does but still get to the ball. He will sometimes fall for pump fakes, but not as much as you'd expect.
