Briggs - anything to report?

Was really hoping to hear a scouting report from Briggs today -- Briggs you on-line today?
he looked solid as usually, but miami ran circles around the MDA like defense, and OKaf, he can rebound and is very fundamental around the rim, but Miami where getting layups and dunks like he didn't exist.

he rebounded well (obviously)
he had 15 points on 13 shots. Not that good.
His defense was horrible.
Very unimpressive game.
Watched entire game of Duke v Miami. Okafor is legit. Miami doubled and sagged their D to try and stop him. The Duke guards were unable to make Miami pay. Duke has issues as teams have adjusted and figured out how to stop them but they haven't adjusted and figured out how to make their offense work. They aren't that good defensively either. Okafor isn't a block machine, as he doesn't go after every block, but he has a presence inside and can grab rebounds in traffic.
Kentucky is a bad spot for Towns in that he would get so much more use on a team that wasn't so crowded with talent. He's not featured and on a different team he would be. He has tons of upside.

It's not that he isn't featured. It because Kentucky's guard shoot 35% from the perimeter so opposing teams stack the box. OK4 on the otherhand is surrounded by good shooters. But yea Kentucky's ridiculous depth with Dakari coming off the bench is a factor
The one thing I also notice about OK4, he does not come out on shooters, and is brutally bad in a PnR defense
