Padget''s ridin the bench with 2 fouls and no points, and we're still dominating. I'm telling you, with our consistent lockdown D, when we're hitting buckets, we're THE best team on the country.
Looks like we're gonna have a lot of momentum going in to OU game. Hello Sweet 16
U of L dismantles Oklahoma. Tennessee narrowly escapes Butler. Hello Elite 8.
After the G'town loss my bracket is looking horrendous. The only pick I'm prolly gonna get right is Louisville winning the national championship.

Roy just never fit in this year, everyone kept waiting for him to carry the team and it never happened.
He's still a good player, just never became great this season.
What he's done shouldn't be measured by yesterday either tho, the refs took him out of the game.
i jumped on the curry bandwagon when i saw his MOM. ggeeezus MILF status, my stroke + release with her would be quicker than dell'sOriginally Posted by J RAIN 23

Davidson = Appreciated
no hate, but errybody is jumping on the curry bandwagon. i started that $+*+!i knew this boy was the truth when i witnessed him drop 30 on maryland live. i sat there and watched in amazement as he drained contested shot after contested shot. his shot is au-to-mat-ic. dell musta had him shooting 3's at age 2 with a mini ball.

I never really saw Georgetown play too much this season (mainly just the Louisville ones and a couple of others), but I think y'all looked a lot better when Hibbert wasn't on the floor. I dunno what it was, but y'all just seemed to flow so much more smoothly without him.

Whatever Ant, you said Curry was garbage at the Bobcats game. You called him a homeless man's Kevin Martin.Originally Posted by AirAnt23
YO! Hibbert has ALWAYS been cupcake to me. Dude is like Brendan Haywood 0.2 (and I mean that as an insult to Brendan).
And man... when I seen Stephen in the Dell Curry Shootout (his junior year?), I was hoping he'd be able to show cats what we do down here.DF!!!

Anyone catch first and ten? It was Jalen Rose telling how coach K got sick of recruiting the one and done guy. Will Avery and Corey Maggette. So he went out to the suburbs and got guys like Paulus and Scheyer. He said that is why Duke won't be great until they recruit like they did.

If Coach K said that he's an idiot and has not adjusted to the environment. You gotta have a combination of both. Yeah, Florida won with unheralded high school players but look at the size they had (things are good when your SF is 6'9" and can shoot the 3, your PF is a 6'10" beast, and your C is a 7 footer). But chances are you won't find gems like that under the radar, then you gotta go with the Kevin Durant's and Greg Oden's of the world, and try to support them with solid players. Syracuse in 2003 was the perfect example. You had Carmelo (the one and done guy) but he was supported by McNamara, Warrick, Josh Pace, Billy Edelin, and whoever the hell else was on that team. They won a chip and competed for a couple years after that. To me that's the better plan, than trying to find diamonds in the rough.
Actually, Duke is in a perfect position to have a star player. They have a senior point guard, an athletic 2-3 in Henderson, another solid player inSingler. If they had a Michael Beasley type player they would be deadly. But Coach K wouldn't want him because he'd only be there for a year.Originally Posted by SCuse7
Yea. I think you really need that star to win a championship now. I don't know if he did say that, but Jalen pointed it out. It was really obvious the way he is going.
I guess this is a good example of the difference between Big John and JT3. That would have never happened to a Big John coached team. Someone would have put curry on his a@#. And Roy would have been force fed the ball.
Pretty much.
But, he's not his father, and I've learned to live with that. It's not that our defense wasn't physical all year, it was...it's justsomebody did need to at least elbow one good time in the chest...they don't gota go Michael Graham on anyone, but just set the tone.
Roy wasn't a JT3 recruit and he'll never probably go after another big man like that again.
In fairness to Roy, college officials do not know how to officiate a good 7' big man, he was only out there for 16 minutes and the 2 offensive fouls he gotwere BS
Monroe, Sims and Braswell will need to be ready to go. IF Monroe can pick up the offense and be the point forward Jeff was, we can be better next year at thistime. We won't win the Big East, but we can be a tough out at this time. We won't be as succesful in W-L's...but the way in which we play can beimproved.
This year we just didn't have it.
I posted this in the season thread...
Things that need to become evident;
1) Beat the press to score.
2) Get rid of the 5 turnovers a game that everyone sees coming.
3) Adapt the pace and system to the talent. We have the athletes to get out and run sometimes. And no Roy will force the issue. The Villanova and West Virginiagames from the BET show a glimpse of the future. We will have big men, Sims and Monroe and they will keep up and be a part of it. Roy couldn't adjustagainst Nova the first day but we kept the increased pace and you see, he adjusted.
4) More Fire; JT3 and the leftovers have to develop a killer instict. We were up 17 yesterday, don't let off, attack, attack, attack. Our talent will bebetter than everyone's use it.
Lastly, with JT3...I hope he keeps on developing players the way he has.
He has been fantastic and I wouldn't trade him for anyone, just some things I hope he has learned from, and I fully believe he will adjust.
No we won't be close to a 2 seed or be in the top 3 of the Big East,
but I wouldn't be surprised if we made a run late in the year and got back to the Sweet 16.
Days like yesterday are needed in the big picture and what is trying to be accomplished here. JT3 is 42 with no intentions of leaving now, he's buildingsomething special and we are wayyyyyy ahead of schedule
