Monster Harrell needs minutes when we look down on energy or "have lost our legs" or when "the crowd doesn't show up". Because he will undoubteduly do something ehre and there to energize the team and the crown
I don't see why coach doesn't have a rule where if the other team goes on an 8-0 run then automatically throw in monster t
So scared to lose this guy. If he develops a mediocre 3 ball, it's a huge game changer. Incredibly smart player that you could even run high post Adelman actions through. Underrated passing, dribbling and IQ.
You cannot play PF in MDA's offense unless you have an outside shot. Otherwise, as a big, you are a center.
Harrell desperately needs to improve his 3pt shot or his rebounding. I love his energy, but he has to be careful not to become Corey Brewer -> all energy, no specific skills. Either rebounding or 3pt shooting needs to improve. If he wants to be a starter, he needs to maintain his rebounding numbers while taking more 3's outside (which basically means, higher rebounding rate to compensate for being away from the rim more often).
He was shooting threes with the Vipers. Not a good percentage, but his form looked good. This summer he just needs to shoot threes. He really doesn't have the size to play center.
He reminds me a bit of Landry. Great at finishing/scoring efficiently, limited in rebounding and defense. Undersized forwards for the win
Landry was an unbelievable rebounder his first couple seasons, esp. his first. Mysteriously, he lost his rebounding at the same time he became a featured post player for the team. Landry created offense. He was not just a finisher benefitting from the MVP's passes.
Sucks for Louisville... but doesnt effect us... unless... at last it all makes sense! THIS must be why MDA chose to ignore Trez and not give him any real minutes - he was worried these sanctions would carry over to the Rockets and get our championship vacated! At last it all makes sense... and here I thought MDA was just an idiot with his short rotations and not utilizing Trez (esp after Nene went down)! Glad we got that cleared up! ...yes, i am being sarcastic...lol
Honestly - The more I thnk on it. . . I think a Three Headed monster at PF could work I mean seriously dedicate 15~20 of MAXIMUM effort at that position for Trez/Anderson/Dekker/Other Rocket River
Harrell lack of 3pt shot doesn't allow him to play any minutes at PF under MDA. If Harrell develops a 3pt shot I think he would have starter potential.
Makes you wonder why Morey selected him in the draft. Truthfully, we can get more production out of him at the 5, but if he developed the ability to post up with a nice little fadeaway jumper and he rebounded better, he might sniff time at the 4.
The rebounding won't improve much, if anything (if he can develop a 3pt shot) his offensive rebounding numbers will go down. He does have an okay mid range shot, which gives hope that he can develop a 3pt shot. If he develops a 3pointer he can play his natural position at PF where he isn't severely undersized and his rebounding wouldn't be as big of a problem. If he adds a 3point shot to his hustle, athleticism and finishing ability he would have starter potential, and would most definitely solidate himself in our rotation.
