Stork, hope you're okay buddy!
Deion Taylor, 2 rebounds, 1 steal. Aldridge and others ate up this "defensive specialist". Didn't score even though he was left unguarded all night.
Marshall Wood, 6 rebounds, 2 steals. Didn't score because he was closely guarded all night.
Who's the greater liability?
3 against 5 with a very short bench (including in & out strategy with the potential shooter) is not a recipe for winning big-time in college basketball. Everybody except for the decision-maker knew this prior to the start of the season.I am going to beat what should by now be a dead horse, but you cannot have two players hanging around the 3 point line for kick out passes that cannot shoot. In part because, yes teams do double team TA and JC in the post.
HJosh Duinker is still making a living playing basketball!
And there you go being logical again.Stork, hope you're okay buddy!

Yet status quo prevails. The decision-maker likes constants.3 against 5 with a very short bench (including in & out strategy with the potential shooter) is not a recipe for winning big-time in college basketball. Everybody except for the decision-maker knew this prior to the start of the season.
Well, you are correct, but that's sad because it indicates the contingency plan to post season is now in play.Positive outlook: everyone can stop getting so upset when we lose this year. The only games that matter now are the ones we play in Brooklyn.
As it is now, that's a fact!! Play the youngsters and let's see what we have!!!!!!Positive outlook: everyone can stop getting so upset when we lose this year. The only games that matter now are the ones we play in Brooklyn.
I would rather TD and DT Use their 10 fouls going hard to the basket when no one is on their side of the court. Now they just waste them fouling the guy that just blew by them on defense.I am going to beat what should by now be a dead horse, but you cannot have two players hanging around the 3 point line for kick out passes that cannot shoot.

No, no, no.As it is now, that's a fact!! Play the youngsters and let's see what we have!!!!!!
Seems to me that we've been hearing "next year" for a number of years. :-(No, no, no.
"Next year" will be the year of the youngsters. "Next year" is the answer to all woes & all hopes.
spider fan - Thanks for the concern. Will see an orthopedic doc on Feb. 18th. Dropped Keith Gill an email to comment on the snow in the parking lot before the game. It's difficult when you dodge ice just to slip on black ice.
TBone, to Mooney's credit he did say the Defense Sucked in his interview with Bob Black. I paraphrased a bit.I saw a lot of good things out of the team tonight. I also saw a defense that got picked apart when we know we can run better alternatives.
Coach needs to see what everyone else sees.
I couldn't bring myself to listen. Did he indicate a change forthcoming? That's really the only answer.TBone, to Mooney's credit he did say the Defense Sucked in his interview with Bob Black. I paraphrased a bit.
You know better than that. Of course not.I couldn't bring myself to listen. Did he indicate a change forthcoming? That's really the only answer.
I just don't understand what he's got to lose. Time to experiment.You know better than that. Of course not.
Agree, nothing to lose by experimenting.I just don't understand what he's got to lose. Time to experiment.
And speaking of experimenting, kudos for starting Marshall. Thumbs down for giving him only 21 minutes when he was 2-3 from 3.
