Hassan Martin: CBSSports
Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
Very, very well written article. Wasn't expecting it to be as in-depth as it was. Can't wait to watch EC and Hassan dominate.

That article demonstrates why Hass is my favorite player.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
Wow hes grown!
And I think the 10.5 hands are like only a few guys in the NFL have hands that big so they have to get gloves made special, like Hakeem Nicks.

If Rhody Jay isn't already photoshopping Mario & Luigi hats onto Hass & EC's heads I will be severely disappointed....

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
If he averages 15/10/3 its going to be a big year down in Kingston. My avatar speaks for itself - given proximity he was one of the rare recruits I was able to watch a few times in HS, even then I thought he had the potential to be one of our best Forwards ever. As Dan stated, if he adds even a decent perimeter game he will have a shot at the next level. Or if he grows 3 inches :0

If you say you’re a Rhody fan, I know you are my brother. For you have suffered as I have suffered.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
He is # 20 in the "best college dunker" article on CBSSPORTS - Matt Norlander. I figured he would be in it but a little higher. Norlander is really high on Hassan though.

First off, Martin's a really interesting kid, and I think a prime candidate to become a legitimate NBA prospect this season. I also think he's about to break out and prove his dunk-god worthiness. His height, length and vertical leap have been going up, up, up for the past four years. He's not even 20 yet, either.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
I hope to see Hassan improve on finishing near the rim and shooting a better ft percentage. I feel he lost a lot of points by not finishing but getting fouled and then not making a high percentage of his free throws. He shot about 60% from the line last year.
If this team is to win close games and make the big leap forward this season, it has to shoot better from the line. Rhody shot at just 65.5% as a team. FT shooting alone cost the team a big signature win vs Davidson and hurt in other games.

A dunk is worth two points, last I knew.
I'm concerned if Hassan Martin, et al., are able to hit two free throws, or after scoring a basket or when they have the opportunity to pull out a win, or pull away from an opponent.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
Hassan led the A10 in field goal percentage last year at 59.8%. How much more can we expect then that?RF1 wrote:I hope to see Hassan improve on finishing near the rim and shooting a better ft percentage.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
I look forward to seeing ARD's imprint on Hassan's game over the next 2 years.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
I'm ready for Hassan to dominate this year. He's been in a great position where the pressure and focus has always been on a couple of his teammates. He's good enough that all the talk about playing out of position or being young/inexperienced (whatever truth they might have) needs to not matter. Martin's in a position to have himself a special season.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
Not that I'm being negative here, but after looking at his numbers from last year one more time, how much are we expecting him to improve?
He averaged, 11 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, and shot 60%.
Are we expecting increases to, let's say, 15, 10, 3 blocks, 60%, on a better team/more options this year?
I feel like because of his breakout year last year, people were obviously put on notice, and is being talked about greatly this year. Don't get me wrong, he is a GREAT player, and will dominate once again, and I expect him to put up similar numbers to last year.
I just don't know, with this amount of talent on the team, Hassan's numbers will dramatically increase the way people are talking about/expecting.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
His shooting percentage will probably go down as he expands his offensive game farther away from the basket. But that's a good thing, in my opinion. Obviously when you're getting a lot of dunks, your percentage is going to be pretty high. As he expands his game to the 12-15 foot level, the percentage goes down. But that's fine. His dominance will be on the boards and on defense. I could see him getting a double figure average in rebounds and could see him breaking school records in blocks. His scoring average is a guess, but I'd say 12-13.

Re: Hassan Martin: CBSSports
Although the defenders were D2 types, I did notice an improved post up footwork, getting into position and calling for the ball in the low post....and moves to the hoop.....in the exhibition game.....question is whether or not this will be sustained in the A-10 sked.....
