Score was 97-89 and Simmons was every bit as advertised.
Holt controlled the squad reasonably well, 5 TO's were costly and while going 0/5 from deep his stroke is very sound. Plays defence and low maintenance guy so will work alongside Goulding.
Blanchfield is going to another level this year and with penetration of Holt his catch and shoot game is perfect. Still needs to board harder at defensive end. 34pts @ 80%
Ibekwe isn't the answer to United's interior issues of last season and foul prone as we've come to expect. 20 mins, 3rebs and 4 fouls. 10/14ft.
Majok is raw and will be a 10 minute backup at best although that's a concern with Ibekwe's tendency to foul where he's likely to be relied on more than he is currently capable of.
Kickert couple of nice treys but looked slow and complained continually to refs as we saw last year. Is coming off surgery so will give him benefit of the doubt.
Patton has trimmed down a little but only three mins so he's either not in Demopolous plans or something else.
Hadzimerovic got to the rim but just couldn't finish, awkward shooting style where he will struggle to get it off under pressure but capable and will progress.
Demopolous coaching style looks to be a good fit, he was into the game, ran a good variety of sets and his defensive schemes will be a positive for a team that has leaked unnessacary points for years.
