MusicCityBilliken Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Presently watching the Arizona-Team Nike game on Fox AZ. Justin just came off the bench for Team Nike to play center. Nike looks pretty good, one of the starting guards is Boche of Kansas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 I was aware he was playing for them but I have been unable to find a roster for his team or any stats in games. He is supposed to be angling for a spot in Europe after the exhibition season is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleBilliken Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 I was very suprised last night when I turned on FoxAZ and saw Justin Tatum in the lineup. I think it's the first Bill to graduate in the last 4 or so years that I've seen on TV. He looked good, but it was the same ole Tatum. He had some nice moves in the post...but was unable to finish on a lot of them. He was strong...nobody was pushing him around. And he still has a suprisingly small vertical in contrast to his athletic build... Arizona is going to be an extremely tough game. Team Nike was very athletic and really held there own for a lot of the game. I just can't believe the shooters that Arizona has. I mean, these guys are just lights out. Granted, they did not face the tenacious D that we will provide, but if they have an open look, they WILL knock it down. We will definitely have our hands full, and at this point, I will be happy if we keep it competitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billiken_roy Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 it is my understanding that the seriousness of justin's two knee injuries makes the fact that he is even playing anymore an amazing feat. so a declining vertical is probably expected.
