Loaded I caught the 4th quarter of the game last night and couldn't believe Warrick still plays. He's 37. Still looks in his 20s though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 BJ Johnson has been very, very good. Gillon has been very good also, and always seems to provide a spark off the bench.

He said if they moved outta Syracuse region he could probably play FYI he is probably SUs best pro playing overseas rn My boy Triche was the Italian league MVP and top scorer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His personality certainly comes across as garish and abrasive. I love his competitive spirit though. Never been a “cheap shot artist” or poor sport ever. Always an incredible teammate by all accounts. I also think he has a bright future as a coach/recruiter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I spoke with Lawrence Moten briefly at TBT this weekend, and knowing he was at the Melo Center a few days this week (TBT players and current players worked out together) I asked him which incoming freshman he was most impressed with. Without hesitation he said JG3. Said he is the best shooter he’s seen in orange since Shumpert or GMac. Also said that Joe’s “gonna be a star” and he would be surprised if JG3 didn’t start at one of the guard positions almost right away. Finished the conversation (before he was swept away by selfie seekers) by saying, “wait ‘til you see what he does in Italy.” “People will be talking.” Moten is a great guy, BTW. If you ever see him at a game or on campus, don’t hesitate to walk up to him and say hello. He’s very down to earth, and actually seems to like talking Cuse hoops with fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He coached the Rochester Razorsharks to a PBL championship. I was actually at the first game (was at Blue Cross) of the 3 game series. A Razorsharks guy got fouled with like 1 second left down by 1, and got to shoot free throws. He missed the first one, and then the second one too but a player crashed the boards and tipped it in for the victory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
