They needed help.
Sorry cant do all the fancy links to tweets etc, but yeah could go one of two ways this. I don't remember him tearing up too many trees in Plymouth but certainly has ability.

Ben Mockford was/is a great player! One that slated the bbl a bit afterward but his time here he was treated badly

Always had ability no question about that - and to be fair I didn't know the circumstances of his treatment here but I do remember him being a bit "Thoseby-lite". Better player though.

It was the year the owner told players off for rebounding as they injure themselves. It wasmt a good time off court down here

Then I take back everything. His criticism is perfectly just. Welcome aboard son!

Unbelievably talented player. I remember a midweek game a few seasons ago and raiders had zero bigs due to injuries and mockford killed us from 3!

I wish I could find the article now but basically he criticised a player (cant remember who but he was a fairly decent import as it goes) for rebounding the ball too hard because he might fall over and tends to get hurt more than other players.
Utterly farcical.

It was Jordan Clake who was a fantastic player for us. Got told off for jumping for rebounds as hell get injured and it isn't smart basketball.

My view on him was clearly talented but couldn't care less about being at raiders and very rarely didn't foul out!! That was a mess of a season

There's hope for us yet, if we can't get points from lay ups then we' won't go near the basket!! We ve got Latinovic, Sayers ( currently most 3 point shots scored in the cup so far) and Mockford to drop them in from everywhere. Interesting times ahead, sad to,see players released but did seem an extra extra guard to Dizzy and PJC.
