Obekpa is a difference maker on defense when healthy. Every coach we play says it. When he is hobbled, that part of his game goes away.
When one actually watches the game without an agenda, it is easy to see when Harrison has been really banged up, and when he hasn't been. He started the year fine, then was hurt. At home against Depaul and in the first half against Xavier he looked much better. Then he got hurt again, and looked like a shell of himself in the second half of the Xavier game.

Not liking all the excuses from Lavin. Seems like he's preparing the excuses now in case he doesn't make the tournament

Here is my bold strategy: Delgado started the season as an aggressive defender that had a tendency to foul out. Although, I have no idea what Willard tells Delgado, I believe that he has been coached to not foul.
He has went from one of the better defenders on SHU to one of the weaker ones. I would start and post up AA and watch him go for double digits! SHU doesn't double team.

Pillow fight game.. If injuries and sickness are true bet the house on the hall for a long awaited victory. Angry redfaced redmen fans angered after this one. Ncaa hopes vanishes.
First and foremost, he's a freshman big man and they hardly can be counted on for much. To add to the troubles there, Amar has to also adjust the the American game simultaneously.
He's extremely physical...huge kid that can play both PF and some C. He has a very nice stroke from midrange and deep, although he needs more touches so he doesn't feel obligated to shoot every time he's open. Good footwork and very efficient with his movements getting into his shot or getting to the hoop or perimeter after setting a screen...defense is below average at this point and quickness will have to be worked on. 10-12 minutes a game with 5 points, 3-5 boards, and limited fouls would be enormous for this team down the stretch.
He can body Delgado...no doubt in my mind. He pins guys and boxes out better than anyone on the roster. He was bullying Reynolds for a stretch in the Xavier game.
Amar has shown tremendous growth in terms of understanding where to be on the floor. Early on, he was totally lost on the court. He is showing great understanding of where to be on the floor. He is probably the best on the team (already) at the pick and roll.
The only problems I see are: (1) On defense, when he switches on a pick, he doesn't look to switch back on his man. We end up with him on the perimeter and a guard on a big down low; and (2) On offense, he missed a couple of passes from Branch in the Georgetown game because he stopped going toward the basket when Branch was driving. He needs to keep going to the basket and look for the pass.
