hit some big free throws when it counted as well. The development here has been impressive. Glad to see him perform well overall (still making mistakes obviously) against better competition.

I'm gonna say Ish is his own man. He has major upside too. Has a decent handle for a guy his size and can pass as well. I'm going with a Darryl Walker lite....lol
I love this group of guys. Absent an implosion, the next few years are bright with a core of Ish, Nzei, Rodriguez, Carrington, Delgado, Whitehead, and SIngh. Adding a point and a deadeye shooter next year (our two biggest weaknesses) is making me giddy.
Ish was clearly the unsung hero of the game with those big steals and blocks late in the game. I think he was credited with 3 steals and 1 block but it was more than that. He also had 9 rebounds & picked up several loose balls. When it was crunch time Ish prevented WSU's big men from getting off decent shots.
Great Effort Ish !!!

Ish was the player of the game for SHU. The guy was everywhere and did you notice how quiet Baker was in the second half - guess who was guarding him quite a bit of the time. Great game by Ish - thought he made the difference. Anyone who says otherwise is an idiot!
Desi had a very good efficient game but he may be our best player. Ish was the difference maker in this game though with two massive steals down the stretch and some great boards and key FTs. The kid really stepped up today and was all over the court guarding two guards no less.
Gee, Desi playing the 3 makes him a different player. Who would have thunk it?
Hey , knock it off , trying to start trouble. Nice to see you DanGee, Desi playing the 3 makes him a different player. Who would have thunk it?
mjs and nittany pirate.
It was clear that the team wasn't comfortable playing the d they started in. Willard admitted this. This included Ish which didn't rotate quick enough and gave up some open threes.
In 2nd half, when he was playing man-to-man d, he was great. I remember him switching onto van fleet and baker and causing turnovers with his length. He ripped the ball right out of baker's hands on the perimeter in a crucial play late in the game.
I thought our pick and roll defense was very good in the 2nd half, partly due to the fact that we have versatile defenders such as Ish, Desi, and Nzei and average to tall guards who can switch and guard multiple positions.

Is Ismael 20 yrs old yet?. Don't forget he is really a young soph. He has a lot of potential. His defense 2nd half was outstanding.
