I'm going to take a break from the normal game to game break down and just give you my thoughts and opinions (Please don't mad if I say something you don't agree with) about the season thus fair, in no real order :
*Keith Benson- A very talented player who I now know why is predicted to go to The League. The guy is just an all around great player and had a REALLY good game against number one ranked Kansas. He proved that he can play against ANYBODY. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that last nights game against Memphis was a fluke. He went scoreless the first half and only finished with nine points and nine boards. Every player has an off day. I look forward to the rest of his season. He is also the Summit League player of the week.
*Drew Maynard- WHY DOESN'T THIS KID GET MORE PLAYING TIME? Did anybody see him at the past 2 home games? Kid was everywhere he needed to be and played well. I LOVE watching him and Derick or JJ set up Alleys. He gets that glare in his eyes and big bright smile and you know something is going to happen. DUNK! During the Rochester College game, a player fouled him so he did not get dunked on TWICE in a matter of 4 seconds. But besides alleys and dunks, he plays very hard during the games and I don't see why he doesn't get more time than he does. Kampe seems to prefer to put Cushingberry in the line up. Do not get me wrong, Cush is a good player, but I think that Drew is better.
*Larry Wright- "WHERE ART THOU": I'm putting an Amber Alert out for him in these games! All that hype and the kid just isn't preforming well. Kampe bobble head for anybody that can find him or his skills.
*Derick Nelson and Jonathan Jones- I really do not have that much to say about them right now. Sorry to disappoint guys.
*Ledrick Eackles- I like this kid. He is able to come off the bench and knock a few shots down for the grizzlies when we need it. Its nice to have great backup on the bench when your starters and go to kids need a rest. I'm impressed with the freshman so far, hope he keeps it up. I see him on the starting five next year.
*I really cannot comment too much on the past few games because I wasn't there and I don't want to steal the play by play from the Grizzlies site. But if you want to read about it, go here:
*The Grizzlies go away for the next two weeks, BUT you can follow the action on twitter. Who ever updates the page is really good at keeping fans updated. Check it out:
