RE: 2023 Mid American Conference Men's Basketball Tournament
The first half was played as a tight man to man. Freeman mad Hornbeak and then Peyton look silly. No disrespect there, Freeman is that good. Also, too many here see Freeman as a post player. He is post player for Akron out of necessity. Somewhere in the future, he will mostly be a SF. He shoots from distance pretty and will get better. I hate Akron but like Freeman a lot.

I don’t disagree that as a Pro Freeman might be a SF but when have you seen him shoot an outside shot? I’ve watched him 10 games and don’t remember him hoisting any jumpers. Not saying he can’t, I just haven’t seen it yet.

Would you say that the post adjustment took away the scoop shot?
Not sure what you mean, but I will say that when adjustments are made, you give up something of hopefully less importance, to get something that is more effective.
It seemed like Freeman was getting his with that drop step followed by a scoop shot that was pretty deadly.

The offensive tool Freeman has that makes him special is the hook shots with those long arms. Posts that do that well can get it off against bigger opponents. Taking him out of the post takes away his best asset.
