Yeah no doubt Mitch was the best. I just wish we had more time from him
Fair enough but thatās who they are, 7 deep. The team is 20-2, totally exceeding my expectations. I wish the young guys could catch on faster but theyāre young and inexperienced in a complex system. When your two bigs go down on any team you will struggle, the flow/timing is disrupted. As for Brooks, hunt shots shoot the ball, someone has to score!

Brooks has defense and we know he can shoot the ball. 
Maybe heāll start hitting again soon and be our breakout surprise in Tourney action. That would work for me.
I think itās clear he has the ability to shoot , he just hasnāt shot well yet. Itās like teske last year. Itās clear he has the ability heās just in his own head a bit, all of Eliās issues are between his ears right now imo, besides loose handle.
I would not be shocked if he breaks out late. If not I hope he doesnāt leave because In the same role next year I think heād figured it out and be a problem off the bench.

Not getting the young guys minutes earlier in the season came home to roost in this game. I think JB has been leaning towards giving DDJ a chance to take some of Eliās minutes at the 1 so Iād expect to see him there more for X as things go on. Just hope he settles into it and shoots like we know he can.
Eli has had limited opportunities to get into a rhythm shooting the ball.
His results over a year and a half are very subpar however.
Agreed, I still like his future.
