Sleeping on Reiber?

Reiber had his moments in 21/22. Then he get hurt and didn’t show any growth - he regressed. Whether that was a result of injury or just not getting it we won’t know. He’ll get a shot to start on a low major level.
 
It’s not that he’s slow, like Paul. He’s agile for his size. Issue is, There’s no fight in him. Too soft. Doesn’t compete down low, just backs away . I’ve explained before hologram Reiber defends as well as real Reiber. I can’t remember any frontcourt Ru player as weak as he is. Can anyone point one out ?He’s an ok outside shooter, but not so good as to justify the matador D.
 
Many of you are relegating him to the backup center roll. Saying Mag will start ..

In what world, outside of his defense, and even that is open to debate, do you think Mag is a better BASKETBALL PLAYER than Reiber? He isn’t…..“Athlete”? Perhaps, again debatable. Shooter? Not even close. BBall court awareness? Nope.

Dean will start at the 4 over Mag. He will for sure play more minutes, between the 4 and 5. If we get a solid backup big man to spell Cliff, Dean will flourish at 4.

So, debate all you want, but his improvement last year to this year shows me he will continue that this year to next season.
Gotta love when year old posts come back to bite you in the a$$!
