He is playing so well and I am so proud that he doesn't back down. He got hit in the face like 5 times this game and still was a freaking beast. Makes me wonder if we have Krivas, Henri, Awaka, and Koa next season. I think we likely lose Koa and potentially even Krivas.

Just imagine having to cover Dickinson. Getting all that sweaty shoulder hair in your mouth all game is a tough assignment. Not everyone is built for it.

Not to mention that he walks while screening you every single time and it is never called.

Yup, the moving screens at AFH were unbelievable.

Veesaar was mauled under the basket tonight and the refs let them play (while we were on offense). He held his ground and stayed out of foul trouble.

If Henri can stay on the court, he's unstoppable. Can't wait to see him next year, with another offseason of lifting.

Keep it up!

Henri was very good on offense  tonight, wish he rebounded the ball better but, no one I think had more than 5 tonight, hope henri can score like this in ncaa tournament, it appears when henri plays well an scores in double figures we are hard to beat.

I hope henri this off season  continues  to get stronger, he still looks little thin, I think it would help him  on offense  an defense  an rebounding the ball.

We'll see how he does against Toppin tonight.  Both bigs are long and athletic.  Should be a fun one...especially in the post.

He will be our best player next year. He has that awkward effectiveness.  He's that player you can't figure out how they got the ball and scored.  Heart of a lion. That's how.

Conrad would be a Pick/Roll genius working with Henri. Maybe that is Tommy's plan for next season. Conrad, Bradley, KJ, Carter, Henri? Is Conrad the Floor General we have been praying for? He really helped us tonight in those final 5 minutes to close out the 1st half where we generally fall apart. I was very impressed with his disciplined aggression to come up with the steal and finish the breakaway layup for a player who rarely gets in the game.

Slo-Mo Krivas needs to earn his opportunity. So do Aristode and Bryce. Not sure who else we may land, but IF Tommy can keep players from transferring out this time around, we will have the E-Man too.

Although I find it difficult to imagine that Carter will still be here and perhaps the NBA will want to get a head start developing Henri too.

We will have to wait and see.
