It’s rather amazing for the new bigs and the new guard/forewards that tres bringing his leadership to this team. His presence can only help transition to the league. I see this as a huge positive for the developing of our future players.
He can pull up any where on the court and can it.
He is a decent rebounder and passer. I hope some others step up and take after him in scoring and defense.
Go beavs

I agree, he's not great but imo, he's very heady. Busts his butt and when your best player is hustling, you can't help but do so yourself. Hoping that rubs off on the newcomers. |

Smart, knows where to be and how to affect passing lanes. Matched up 1v1 on the perimeter or down low, he has a bit more of a challenge. |

"Defense? How many NBA stars truly play defense. I know there are lock down guys and each team needs a few, but not everyone is out there because they can hold the other team's leading scorer under their average.

I know there are lock down guys and each team needs a few, but not everyone is out there because they can hold the other team's leading scorer under their average. LOL... some sarcasm? or? Tres is what? An NBA star?? Apples to oranges post there if not tongue in cheek. Tres is a lot of things, but he's not close to a defensive stalwart, let alone "lockdown"... at the college level. Hew rarely is assigned another teams' best wing or post... not quick or strong enough. His best plays are from the weak side or vs smaller players inside... charges, backside blocks. When you bring in the NBA and that caliber of athlete, Tres is bottom tier in defensive skill level. He's rangy, smart, and can make a living at that level or overseas, but he's simply not "built" to handle 90% of the extreme athletes at that level. Not at the same "level", but I remember a couple years back a poster declaring what a great defender ST was because he has quite a few steals per game. TT is a great example of a guy working at his game and being far superior to ST as a team defender than a guy who was more "athletic" and constantly beaten/taking chances on the D end. |

Tres is not a leader of the team. He is a solid player and the statistical leader. We need someone to step up and lead the team on the court. Coach Tinkle has said so much at pressers with Tres sitting right next to him.
