I need to see more skills from Shead and Battle. They should be dominant at this level.

I wasn't focused on his offense this game. It's the defense that I was watching. He's got magnet for hands.

Have you not seen his rookie interviews? There’s a prime example lol


He was 19 years old. How many 19 year olds are polished public speakers with millions watching...

Kind of sad watching him try to defend...can't close out at speed yet and doesn't have the reach to disrupt shots.

Seems like disrupting passing lanes / ball handlers may be his first impact play, as his reach and hands look good.

Playing with sloppy players is making him sloppy. But you can see his handle and feel for the game. He isn't being given the ball in good spots though. That's a Shead fail.

We haven’t seen much. Mostly being taken for his defensive versatility but that doesn’t stand out much with this entire SL squad playing defense for their lives

Can’t reach across the body like that Skal. Amazing how many basketball players argue that call. Just cuz you get your hand on the ball doesn’t mean it’s clean.
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

I just wanna double check that this is sarcasm right?!

Because that will be incredibly f*cking annoying if our fanbase embarrassed themselves like that (again).
