At a glance, Foreman reminded me a little of Puriefoy. I never looked at Puriefoy (or even Cornish) and said "that guy's a point guard" but he's a pretty good hybrid of the 1 and 2 – certainly good enough at this level to play the 1, and somebody who can be dangerous playing off the ball too (Cornish less so). Similar build to Puriefoy, not a pure distributor, looking to score. I couldn't tell whether he was willing to finish at the rim like the aforementioned alums, but the jumper was smooth.

Without any input from me, a friend seconded my note about Policelli's energy. You know how Almonacy looked sometimes, just kind of going through the motions? It was kind of like that.

I liked the on-ball defense that I saw from TPP and TSM. Guys were in people's faces all night, fighting through screens, diving on the floor on occasion, etc., and they seem to have bought right in.
