Truth, all they do is give it to Edey because he is so big. Now they are playing a team with some size they really do have much more on offense.

lol He reminds me of Donavan Mitchell and Jimmy Butler to a lesser extent. Mitchell mostly because he always looks like he is wearing shoes that are too big for his feet. :lol:

Purdue looking like one trick pony. UConn is just a far more rounded team.

Edey is barely a prospect.

I don't believe he has quality starting potential but if you put this man as a first. Back up off the bench.I believe he will be fine..

I would imagine on NBA that do well in attacking on orphans.Anyone who doesn't put a body on him will be giving up rebounds And put backs. Similar but not quite the same as mark williams on charlotte.

UCONN's guards/wings have been grabbing a lot of offensive boards, been a big difference so far.

They are. Play Edey against some size and he is easy to erase.

I don’t think Edey has been discussed enough - thoughts?

This is widely considered one of the weakest in recent memory.

Unfortunately most of us knew this before the game.. And I think most were just hoping that the role players can step up a little bit for Purdue.. So far most have been pretty horrible..

Edey' looks worn down which is understandable playing essentially the entire game and getting no help.
