Another great job. Love these videos.
One area I might highlight that wasn’t addressed, “How well does Gasperini shoot the ball from 6 to 12 feet ?”
As a big, sometimes teams will just double team him and take away the hook shot. Can he just step back in hit the
in between shot. You mentioned that he can’t shoot the 3. That’s fine. Not may 5’s can shoot the 3 ball except at the NBA level. But, does he have a mid-range, in between game, to compliment his post play, which looks fine.
Gasperini does appear at the offensive end to have good footwork and soft hands, which is the essence of effective post play.
The kid reminds me offensively of Jeff Ruland.
Defensively, you are right, he’s not a great athlete. Don’t know if I like his positioning though. If you can’t jump over people you can at least box him out. I’d have wished you explored that just a little more to complete the analysis.
Overall, great job. I have a handle on Mark Gasperini thanks to you.
