For the record again, Kendrick Perkins, a first rounder, did not have as good a first game as Ba did.
Does anybody else remember Eddie's head snapping back after that collision with Fisher while diving for a loose ball?
The only question I have about Badiane is about his fluidity. Does he move well, is he a bit stiff, etc? It sounds like he's a good athlete & has a bit more skill than everyone thought. Griffin is stiff, but a lot of his "stiffness" has to do with lacking confidence & indecisiveness. Griffin is quite smooth the few times he makes a strong, purposeful move.
I trust EG is working with Ewing just like Ba is doing. The only area for major improvement in EG's game is the low post offensive game.
