If we slow down the pace we can give them fits, just need to make a few threes to keep our confidence up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five star transfer from Kansas and he's a phenomenal scorer Can't let him heat up behind the arc because he can win a game by himself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our guards should be aware that as soon as he catches it to get in his face and contest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't win a thousand games for no reason Tomorrow is going to be Quincy's game to eat on the boards... He's probably going to be the most physical person in the game..

All I am reading is how Houston’s “best offense is a missed shot.” Quincy is going to have to kill it down low for us to win this game. Everyone really needs to crash the boards. I am really hoping Griffin has a breakout performance. He’s due. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 If we lose I put it all on Boeheim taking Edwards out. What the hell is Boeheim thinking not just keeping Edwards in permanently for this game after the impact he had on the 1st half on D????? I say this as the 1st half ends. I hope I can eat crow after a great 2nd half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost all aggression with taking him out, no logical reason to do so, esp to be putting dolezaj with two fouls back in the middle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4merper4mer Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Refs reeeeeeeeeeeeally giving it a good try for the Cuse. Just called a foul on Houston guy for getting shoved in the back. Pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just called a foul on Houston guy for getting shoved in the back. Pathetic. Houston defenders foul every time on every play. They hand check and body check and play ultra aggressively and out of control on the glass. That’s why they are so good. But that’s also why at the end of their games, every guy on their team has like 4 fouls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transplantbillsfan Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 There is absolutely no pinning this game on the refs. Syracuse will lose this game because of the one thing that's irritated me in my decades as a Syracuse fan: Jim Boeheim and his personnel choices. This game was the Orange's for the taking the moment Edwards stepped into the game in the first half and Syracuse went on a 15-3 run. Then Boeheim took him out and Houston went on a 15-3 run. Edwards was the difference today and it SERIOUSLY pisses me off that we're under 4 minutes and for some STUPID reason he's still not in the game. This is a "screw you Boeheim!!!" moment for me.

transplantbillsfan Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I'm legitimately livid right now at Boeheim. Taking Edwards out after the incredibly obvious impact he was having on the game is absolutely ***** ridiculous. Yes... woulda helped to make some shots... but Edwards was the obvious difference today. Boeheim you're an idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwards plays good for spurts but he really does struggle to rebound and hold the ball.. like boeheim says he loses to many balls he has his hands on And he did today too.. He lost alot of balls that won't show up in the box score..but he will be good next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a "screw you Boeheim!!!" moment for me. i would be curious to hear what he says in his presser about it, though the beat reporters don’t usually push him much. As best as I can tell, it was either he was worried about Edwards’ conditioning or worried about Edwards picking up fouls, and so felt he had to pace and protect him. I suspect it was more of the latter, as Edwards does have the tendency to pick up fouls in spades. I do think that really was the game. I also think that Our offense was just poor. It was a blood bath out there, and so everything was contested or fouled. 4 minutes ago, Buffalo716 said: Edwards plays good for spurts but he really does struggle to rebound and hold the ball.. like boeheim says he loses to many balls he has his hands on And he did today too..

The zone will be a lot more effective with those three guys in the rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just got out muscled , it is what it is .. edwards will be really good when he adds 15 pounds edwards struggles with physicality.. he really does.. he has moments but he fouls alot and doesn't hold on to the ball consistently 5 minutes ago, Miyagi-Do Karate said: i would be curious to hear what he says in his presser about it, though the beat reporters don’t usually push him much.

I know JB almost died when he took that little transition pull-up today, but he can make that. I’d love to see him put on weight and get more PT. I think he could be a very well-rounder center. Make some 10-footers; some baby hooks; develop a little post-up game. You can tell the raw talent is there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
