Mast interview starts at the 1:20:00. Mast's accent is unexpected.

We aren't going to have anyone to go on the Spain trip, they're all going to be out for international duty!

For a minute there I thought I was in @Norm Peterson thread and was thinking to myself "what does this song have to do with Wednesday?"  

Mast is playing at 11 am today

2 offensive rebounds early. Didn't realize that Jesse Edwards was Dutch

Appears to move OK off the ball on the O end.

Has gotten lost a couple of times on the D end, but that hasn’t affected team in negative way yet.

Played nearly the entire first quarter.  So appears to have good stamina.

2 pts, 2 boards, 1 assist.  Allowed an offensive put back on the D end.  Good body control on his basket inside.

doesn’t appear to favor either playing inside or outside.  Will play wherever.

Turned it back on halfway through the 2nd quarter and he has a nice left handed basket

Not fully focused, but I have him down at

4 points, 3 boards, 1 assist, 2 TO at half.

Nice left handed basket after catching at high post FT line.

Post D was OK.. got beat once but his guy missed and then actually had help D on the other time I saw.

Rough 2 min stretch toward end of 2nd where he turned it over twice after getting ball in deep post.

End of 3rd

4 points, 4 boards, 1 assist, 3 TOs

Started 3rd, had a bad TO, got a rebound that the guy missed on the breakaway and he was pulled at dead ball.

Haven't seen him on court since I started watching or on bench.  I hope like hell he didn't get hurt. 

Edit.  Right as I was typing that he came back in!

Unofficial after 4Q

4 points, 6 boards, 2 assist, 4 TO, 1 steal

- Didn’t start 4th Qtr

-Came in about 5:50 left

- Missed his only 3 I saw

- Has decent spacing on O.  In the right spots and finds gaps on perimeter.

- Another bad TO on a drive at a bad time.

- Appears to have gotten a steal by luck.

- Assisted in go ahead basket with 30 ticks left.

- Got an O rebound and missed put back to win it at buzzer.

Game going to OT

Not to make this a soccer thread… but it appears we will end in a tie.

Extremely friendly end to a friendly game

Meh...

Overall thoughts after this game.

1. Appears to have good offensive spacing.  Didn’t get to see him shoot it much, but he was in the right spots for a kick out.

2. Going to have to improve on the D End against quicker players.  Did ok, but did get beat and got caught watching a time or two.

3. TO’s were worrisome not because they were TO, but because they were bad TO’s.  Dribble off leg in post, lazy pass that got him yanked, etc.

4. Appears his motor keeps going and going which may be needed based on depth alone.

5. Overall for me it was a net meh game as Papa said above.  Did some good things… did some bad things. Didn’t stand out.  Did have good body language after being yanked though which is a positive sign.
