Sorry I'm busting your balls, but being a put back man is definitely one of the top 3 roles I assign a 4-man. Without those putbacks we may not have won.
Oh and is there any question about Othello's defense...with those monkey arms and such.

you are not busting. I agree with you. What I meant is that he isn't a "go to guy" rather a 2nd echelon scorer, a role player. Which he does very well.

Dispatch
Buckeyes? Hunter is no longer a secret
Spartans? Izzo says he could be a big key at tournament time

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Othello Hunter was such an unknown two summers ago that after Ohio State men?s basketball coaches tried unsuccessfully to sneak him in for a recruiting visit, four other schools showed up at his Florida junior college the next week to introduce themselves.
Cont'd....

Hunter's two biggest performances came in our two biggest wins, @ Illinois and @ MSU that should say something about his importance. When Hunter is on the floor with Oden points in the paint are very hard to come by for opponents.

"The X Factor". Oden gets them to pump fake about 3 times before shooting and O' comes in and swats it into the stands. I love it! The guy is all over the paint on both ends of the floor and that makes this team very strong. On a night when our guards are shooting 3's well, Oden and Hunter in the paint are an absolute nightmare for opponents. Hunter may very well get some Big10 recognition if he keeps up his play as of late.

That will be hard with guys like Tyler Smith and Carl Landry putting up the stats they are and Hunter just being that down and dirty guy that does the little things that arent recognized in the stat column... |
