Buffalo716 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 1 minute ago, JR in Pittsburgh said: Loved Dole’s game today. About as perfect a game you can play in every way. Made open shots; huge passes; key FTs; key rebounds; shut down the wings on D. oh, yeah, and how about brissett?! consider the fact that we will have marek for 4 years and brissett for probably 3. Those guys as upperclassmen are going to be really good. Not just really good... scary good Im super impressed by Oshae. He has a great offensive repertoire even when he isn't finishing at the rim Doles is just a basketball player, straight up.. language barriers mean nothing when you speak the universal language of basketball so smart, always makes the little play, the extra pass, tipping a ball If he develops like I think he will he will definitely be an NBA player by his SR year. A stretch 3-4 that does everything well with a high basketball IQ That behind the back pass...i love him already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's hitting mid range jumpers now! Gotta take one from NC or Duke now The 9-2 run late took the wind out of the canes sails.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 What was killer was chuku’s turnover. Grabs a rebound with the game tied at 72 and just fritters it away. Barry races off and makes a layup and that’s the game. Barry was an absolute killer too. Every time NC needed a huge bucket, he made it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time NC needed a huge bucket, he made it. I agree with all of this. I do put some blame on Chukwu but the guards need to go to him and help him out. They know he shouldn't/can't hold on to the ball and need to go get it from him imo. Also not being talked about much was Cuse's last possession. I was not a fan of burning off so much time before taking the shot. With a team that struggles to score and plays good defense, we need as many opportunities to score points as we can get.

The Poojer Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 the most frustrating thing is that i expected us to get completely blown off the court, and that was supported by the first half result. Then they somehow stepped it up. That kind of frantic pressure is simply not sustainable with 6.5 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bray Wyatt Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 38 minutes ago, JR in Pittsburgh said: Chukwu is a freaking weakling. It's maddening. He's 7'2" and can't dunk and gets his shot blocked and ball stolen from him all the time. Bray: I agree that the guards had to help Chukwu out on that late position, but they were open. He has to throw the ball; and he can't freaking put the ball down by his ankles. He really blew it. Chukwu is really maddening in general to watch, he falls down to easily, doesnt know where to be on defense, cant catch the ball, if he does, he loses it. I have been wanting Sidibe to play more, but he had a pretty bad game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Should have shut it down a few weeks ago, but with 3 weeks left in the season, it would make zero sense to shut it down at this point. gotta push through and help this team reach post season 5 minutes ago, JR in Pittsburgh said: Sidibe was really lumbering out there-- it's obvious his knee is killing him.

Still— how can these guys be such terrible shooters? You could leave Moyer and dolejaz open at 15 feet away all day and they would probably make 15% of their shots. agreed on the refs. i think they needed to beat either UNC or Duke to get in; looks like we are heading to the NIT.

Your problem against the Heels tonight is that they are steamed at how they played during the 2nd half of the Dook game. No chance of catching them in a "letdown" game. Good luck, though, hope it's a good game (but not too good). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
