Why peeps crapping on Rebraca in this thread? I liked his effort/game. Thought he was effective last year and a battler. Undersized, yes. Proud he was a Hawkeye.

I agree for most people the midrange shot is a bad percentage shot because it’s a lost art. But there are a few people who can still make it. Garza was pretty good from about anywhere. It’s good that he can adapt his offense to the defender.
I think he’s further ahead than Rebraca was in his first year at Iowa. But remember, he’s a fifth year player, too. With lots of decent experience and a little more size.
Agree that he looked bad on a couple hedges. Gave up wide open layups. His foot speed is not any better than Garza’s.
Don’t see anybody doing that. Rebraca was definitely a battler. Got the most out of his abilities. 2 totally different players. Like both of them.
I like both players. Rebraca gave it his all each game. Krikke will also.
Agree, two very different players. Almost opposite really.
Rebracas scoring has no relevance to Krikke because, obviously Rebraca can't do the majority of the things Ben can.
You both asked who can play D, I replied Freeman then the Woodnuts reference came along.
It has nothing to do with Krikke screen D, which is non existent
No I did not ask a question.
I simply stated the fact that Iowa has not had anyone defend a screen properly since Woodbury.
Iowa players don't play defense the right way and I doubt anything will change that.
Krikke has been consistent, steady, and reliable so far. Just what we needed in our post player this year. He was a great "get" for the Hawkeyes!
