Brandon is averaging 10pts & 8rebs while getting 30 minutes of game action. Kidd on the other hand is averaging close to 11pts & 5rebs while being limited to only 22 minutes a game.Did you mean Johnson when you said Kidd and vice versa?
Kidd has been pretty terrible. Johnson needs to do better but has at least had stretches where he competed.
Kidd hasn’t gotten more than 3 rebounds in either game this tournament. Brandon has 17 rebounds in the two games.
I do agree that Kidd needs to do a better job on the boards, but he needs to play more. I know he was in foul trouble vs Okie St., but not sure what happened against Drake. When he's on the floor he's been productive for the most part. Our only interior threat on offense right now. Not sure if it's a conditioning issue but playing 20 minutes a game isn't going to cut it. Would like to see what kind of numbers he'd put up if he were averaging closer to 30 minutes a game. He's been one of our most efficient players offensively. Arguably the best one up to this point.
That's not to say Brandon Johnson hasn't played well thus far. Has done a good job on the glass and plays hard, but I think he's limited in what he can do offensively. No question in my mind who the top 2 players for this team have been over the first few games of the season.
