I enjoyed watching Paris dominate 5 star, projected first round Nico Mannon
Paris broke his ankles once, putting him on the deck, and did it again, putting him on skates, and basically threw him off balance over and over. not sure why Paris stopped attacking him at some point. At first I thought it was because AZ adjusted, but at least once Paris had basically an iso and chose to pass
but it was brilliant to see Paris outplay Nico
2-10 from the field with 2 assists. Thank you for your thoughts.
If I'm an opposing coach, I let Paris roam free all day. He had more TO's than made shots last night. He rarely finishes in the paint. Give him the matador defense and wave him by so he chucks up a shot off balance against a big. Just don't foul him and put him on the line.
Yah that is a good scout, unfortunately.
Also, can someone teach Lars a pump fake or move when he is 2 feet from the basket? It appears that going straight up usually winds up with one of the students on The Bench.
Lars = Herman Munster
Over the next 21 months, the Big German is going to morph from Munster to MONSTER!
The return of the immortal Hartmut Ortmann!
There's a blast from the past. For you younger Bears, Hart was a 6-8, 230 PF from Germany in the (?) late 80s. He was "wooden", sort of in the style of a DJ Thorpe. IIRC, he started having a much-improved senior season, before getting injured.
He was also my apartmentmate.
Do you and Hart keep in touch? What's he up to these days?
I have not seen Hart in years. He was a pretty good dude. The thing I was most impressed with is he bought a broken down BMW motorcycle and completely rapaired it, reading manuals, ordering parts - this of course all before the Internet... We shared a two bedroom apartment on Ellworth that was the definition of slum living. This was Spring 89- Summer 90... If memory servce me correctly we paid something like $237 each. The landlord was JB Reddy who owned the Indian restaurant on Shattuck and I think Haste, but become more notorious for being the ring leader of a sex trafficing ring....
