[QUOTE="FiveStar, post: 1386555, member: 603998"] Somebody (pretty sure it was here) previously posted a link about how Belien preaches fundamentals. They worked a ton of passing and shooting, as well as some ballhandling. The article said he is big on pass/catch with two hands on the ball and two feet on the ground. That was readily apparent. Even in a full court running/passing drill like the 3 man weave, they would jump stop to catch the ball. A couple guys loosened up every now and then and threw down some sweet dunks on a backdoor cut drill and the 3 man weave. But Charles Mathews was noticeably conservative. Never dunked, didn’t seem to push himself speed wise. I’m not sure if he was being overly cautious not to get hurt, which I would understand, or if he is being slowed by something. I assumed Ray Jackson would be around but I didn’t see him. I come across him quite a bit in the Austin prep hoops scene. There were a lot of people from the austin scene who were there, which is why not seeing him made it a bit more noticeable. Although I guess technically he doesn’t exist wrt Michigan basketball.
