    No self-respecting hooper doesn’t take the heat check

    Post game press conference - Josiah was asked about his reaction to Keisei's late three and he responded with "We're subbing offense to defense so I was right at the table, but who know what I could have done with that shot." Not serious but he's so natural he should look into media after his playing days are over.

    No coach speak or sport’s cliches from him. I’m sure Fred winces sometimes with Jo’s honesty.

    When he’s under control real well. Needs to stay under control

    Josiah has to stop trying to create. He can’t.

    Gary may have been our best player since he came back. He and Mast need more minutes than Allick. Big gap between those two and him. And personally, I’d like to see more Keisei.

    That was my comment earlier - it’s all subjective. Whether people want to admit it or not there is no way of really “proving” anything.

    I admit to age bias, everyone thinks the music and sports were better in their day. The league used to be 23 teams. We are now at 30. That’s over an extra 100 slots. From my perspective I see players that start or are big rotation players from championship teams today that wouldn’t be good enough to even be on a team in a 23 team league.

    Or… the same stat could be used to show the defense is getting worse. It’s subjective.

    I think the difference is no Walker. Same cuts just no delivery. Mast is Ok but not Walker and Allick looked at a couple cuts that KT was wide open on and just didn't pull the trigger. A couple were so obvious that he could hear the crowd make a collective groan.

    CJ also hit the side of the backboard. Gary needs to go to the basket more I agree but he has a completely different shot than last year. His FT’s are just under 70% and after the last game he is still shooting about 38% from three. Even in the last game he shot 33%. So attack the basket more but he still can catch and shoot within the offense.

    Horrible judgement, yes. Unforgivable, yes. He’s also one of the US top 6 or 7. Take his punishment whatever that is - probably won’t get called up for the next camp because he can’t play with the red. If we have any chance to be competitive in the Copa we need a well-heeled Dest at left back. If we can smooth over the Gio controversy, we can make this work as well.

    Spoke too soon

    As as recovering Nebraskaball fan I have hit rock bottom watching the first half. The defense is lackluster against a bad offensive team and we couldn’t score in a house of ill repute right now. Thought I would get the pessimistic panic attack out of the way earlier this year.

    And down goes Michigan State

    Add Keisei and Gary and you’re at a 10 man rotation. I don’t think we’re going to play a 10 man rotation. Add those two and he’s not in the top 8. Minutes should be limited for Hoiberg and Rice. Both of them are ok players. We simply have 8 better players then those two and that’s a good thing.

    Rutgers loses to Princeton and Mich State is now tied with James Madison with 12 left

    autocorrect - I think Wood is testifying against Trump so I don’t think he qualifies as a trump supporter in or out of the closet.

    Linwood is basically UNK so good yes, but can’t get carried away

    Ya I knew that but to me there’s a huge difference between depression and not being motivated to play. That’s why I said maybe it was just the way he worded it that I found troubling.
  22. Dean Smith
    I must of missed that. I know a lot of people jumped to the conclusion of a failed drug test. And maybe it’s just the way you phrased it that seems so off putting.

    Except for the from the side of the head jumper

    Union having at least an expected 3.0 xg was the issue. No one could finish last night.

    Coming back from playing in Hawaii for Hastings, Bart found himself throwing up on the plane for some reason and then had to transfer out. I did see him dunk at 12 feet on that hoop Doc Farrell had that could crank up and down. Down for me.
