I can see your side too. Mine was never disdain though. Just extreme frustration. I do agree with you that next year he's gonna be the DUDE

From my standpoint, i didn't see much difference in disdain and extreme frustration, tbh. Lashing out isn't much of a positive experience... I've been frustrated with some of Brice's sloppy passes or nonchalance. It happens. I get it.

Nobody on the team has been perfect. Almost all of them have made me frustrated, at least once or twice this season, even KT, and I’m the biggest KT homer on the planet. But it shows we care and it makes it more rewarding when they play well and to their capabilities. I know we don’t want Jo taking a bunch of threes, but from the baseline, he’s actually pretty ok. Love it when he hits a big baseline three.

dis·dain

noun

the feeling that someone or something is unworthy of one's consideration or respect; contempt.

Much more negative connotation with disdain.

Didn't need a definition, man. Sheesh. EXTREME frustration is borderline disdain in my eyes. It is a sign of disrespect or contempt if one always shows it. It's okay to disagree here...

I will agree with that. It does even show 'too much care' at times.

Not at all. Not even close. If a person isn't doing something properly repeatedly that you know the are capable of that can lead to extreme frustration. But to make the jump that they don't deserve respect or ones consideration is quite a jump. 

My Toddler repeatedly tries to extend his bed time every damn night. Leads to extreme frustration for me. Do I have disdain for my toddler. No. And that's why words matter regardless how we "feel" what they mean

I know words matter. I took a stand on what I think of constant badgering of Brice all season meant a bit far, undoubtedly. I am sick of it, tbh. So, yeah, if the shoe fits, then maybe cut back on the EXTREME frustration, because he's a key member of the team. Missing the point of the discussion is a big issue of these forums, going to a dictionary to 'feel' right isn't the avenue here.... I am not retracting my opinion, I got tired of the BS some tend to spew at Brice, so I lashed out. Okay?

No worries man. I don't think your opinion is wrong. I'm just pointing out there is a clear distinction between extreme frustration vs disdain. Hey man I get in my arguing moods too. Have at it. You're in the right place

I work in a highly technical career, I'll argue 'til the cows come home. I get pissed at fellow Husker fans at football games more than I will on HHC, tbh. It's all good. I'm just a big, big supporter of Brice so an accumulation of frustration is an 'enough is enough' from me. GBR Always.

Here's the easy math...4 regular season games left + 3 in the Big 10 tournament + 6 in the NCAA tournament = 13 games remaining.  He only needs to average 8-9 makes a game to break Cochran's record and 3-4 makes a game to move into 2nd all time.

In how many games?  He likely has made his 3 pointers in less minutes played than anyone in out top 10; with the possible exception of Tyronn.

That first half of KT ball… there’s not stopping that.  They even played realllly good D on some of his shots… still made it.

Prolly his best half of basketball since he has been at Nebraska from passing and shooting the ball!  it was a thing of beauty!

I think his defense the last 3-4 games has been really good (for him), definitely stepped it up in that area.

Beating Indiana, with those 5 Championship banners hanging in Assembly Hall and those 5 Stars on their shorts, is a nice accomplishment.

As to Lawrence’s better play late in the year, last year his role increased and he acclimated to the college game. This year he has again acclimated to a new role (we found out mid-August? about Ulis) and his play increased. If he’s allowed continuity in his role this offseason, I bet we see him hit the ground running to start next year.

Turned on my recording after I got home from church and that's the first shot I saw.

That's what I'm sayin', too. Their record this season be damned. It's still a good thing to beat the snot outta the Hoosiers on a regular basis. Let's get back to that. The NU-IU record isn't that horrible for us, it's 8-11 since joining the B1G... it's the 0-7 that started the Hoiberg era that hurts, tbh.

Meh, we've had lots of success in Assembly Hall since joining the Big Ten.  I am not 100% sure but I think it may be the place we've gotten the most road wins in league play.  Definitely top 2 or 3 for sure.
