They look good today, but we’re playing a really bad BC team that lacks physicality. How are our young bigs ever going to get better if they can’t even get any PT in a blow out? It’s currently 60-35 and no bigs have played- only Marek.

Solid overall effort, but again we beat a really bad BC team. Kadary continues to impress. JG3 played better but faced minimal ball pressure. Buddy was very sharp early on. Griffin is good but not as good as Elijah, at least not yet. Woody shows promise. Not impressed with the run our bigs got in the second half. None look capable of meaningful minutes this year.

I think it was a JB ball movement epiphany frankly! Either it was a gameplan going in (my guess) and/or he specifically told JG/AG to knock it off with the hero ball. We have had flawed rosters and no reason we couldn’t have been playing this style for years.
This was major cutting off the ball/motion. Like Nova, Michigan, UVA., etc. Crisp passing. Best we have seen in a LONG time. Very good. I don’t think we have the players to be doing all this 1-on-1. We can’t dump it into the post and get a simple bucket via a drop-step. We aren’t going to be getting highlight reel dunks. Frankly, this team today played like a great mid-major. I think this is how they need to play. We won’t be getting a lot of dribble penetration all year and aren’t physical or explosive. Cheers!

Look the other board is very much fan boys. But this is a tough crowd to win with. We just wall to wall smoked them. Is BC great? No. But they did take nova to OT. Again I’m not saying we’re going to the final 4 but being at all critical or negative in the moment is wild to me.

And I’m not saying they’re so good. But to say it’s a really bad BC team is just backed by no evidence from this year. Battled Minn and Nova. Beat URI. Not sure what it takes to Get some sort of positivity on here. It doesn’t have to be a fan boy reaction to say hey we smoked a decent team on the road today.

I praised the whole scheme and new approach. Loved what I saw. Tonight is how THIS SU team needs to play. Well aware too how BC fared in previous games.

Again I’m not saying we’re going to the final 4 but being at all critical or negative in the moment is wild to me. I praised Kadary, spoke highly of Buddy, and Woody. I said Griffin looks good, but not Elijah yet. Those are all complimentary statements. I did voice dissatisfaction with the bigs, and that’s fair. BC is 1-4, and not a physically imposing team. Frankly, BC is exactly the type of team we can play well against because they were not applying much ball pressure, nor were they a tough physical team. Solid win. Positives to take away for sure. Still I think our big man issue is going to continue to be a real problem. I suppose we could use 20 fools at that position with all our guys if we had to. We might need to. Definitely don’t think I was all doom and gloom, and Sobe was definitely upbeat. Sometimes do you think it’s possible that you’re expecting negativity from us, so you read what we write through a filter that may or may not be accurate?

Yes I was more referencing Jazz’s top two posts.
Certainly was the most fluid cuse offense I’ve seen in some time.

Dude... outside of calling BC a bad team, my statements if looked at individually are pretty complimentary and accurate. Let’s take a peek at what I actually wrote... They look good today (true). We played a BC team that lacks physicality (true... they applied very little ball pressure and were not a physically imposing team). How are our young bigs ever going to get better if they can’t even get any PT in a blow out? It’s currently 60-35 and no bigs have played- only Marek. (At that point in the game it was true). Solid overall effort (true). Kadary continues to impress (True he’s been very poised and impressive). JG3 played better but faced minimal ball pressure. (True statement) Buddy was very sharp early on (true and complimentary). Griffin is good but not as good as Elijah, at least not yet. (True based on his first 5 games). Woody shows promise(true -he’s looked good in his minutes received). Not impressed with the run our bigs got in the second half. None look capable of meaningful minutes this year. (This is true too... our bigs are a problem). *So seriously dude, I wasn’t bashing on our boys. The only debatable statement I made was how bad BC is. I guess that’s a premature statement but they are 1-5 despite hanging with some good competition. Let’s see what their record looks like at the end of the season. I suspect it won’t even count as a quad 2 win. Time will tell. But seriously, don’t call my posts out for being all negative or you’re just proving your own reading comprehension and literacy deficiencies. I enjoyed the game. The ball movement was good. I think we’ll struggle against physical teams or teams that apply a lot of pressure. We shall see. Go Orange!

We won a road conference game by 40 and just about every positive had a caveat.

I'm done with Griffin and JG3. Haha. I was impressed with top 7 on Sat frankly. Both Griffin and JG3 played well and didn't chuck. JG got one chuck in at the end for fun.
Continue to be plesantly surprised by Woody. He has game.
Not sure why Ajak is the 1st big off the bench every game. He's a spazz out there. Edwards is the most ready IMO and is up there with Frank in upside.
