[QUOTE="BeeRBee, post: 307887, member: 1466"] To be fair to BG, if you go back and read his postgame comments last year he was incredibly high on Lammers. For example, here's a quote from the ACC teleconference on Feb. 8, 2016: [INDENT][I][SIZE=3]"I think he's got a bright, bright future. He's not the offensive threat at this point that Nick (Jacobs) or Charles (Mitchell) are, but he's our best post defender. He can guard the low post. He did a good job on two or three post isolations yesterday with (Tonye) Jekiri, and he was the only guy that could keep him off the glass yesterday. Even though there were a couple fouls that were called in the second half, he guarded (Brandon) Ingram for a lot of that game. Other than those fouls, he held him to a very low percentage. I think he was 3-for-14 from the field. He has a great understanding defensively and a high basketball IQ. We just need him to be a little more aggressive offensively. He needs to really develop the kind of ability to decide when to go for a block. He's very good in terms of shot blocking.
