They don't give him the ball....how is he supposed to get assists if he doesn't ever have the ball in his hands? They really need to give him theball more....hes shot a combined 10 shots in the past 2 games...You got Josh Ship thinking hes Kobe....and Darren Collison going 4-16.......how the hell yougonna keep jackin up shots shots like that? You wanna know how important he is to the offense? Last night he touched the ball 11 times....10 of those times hetouched it, it resulted in something positive. Go back on game tape... its somewhere in the 80-90% range of positive outcomes after he touches the ball.
But I blame the coaching for them losing last night....They needed to lose though....they got away with the Michigan st. game.

? what u expect them to rebound the ball and give it tolove to start the outlet? no sir, they give it to the PG. i think what dude is saying, for them to hype that outlet pass so much this man should avg like 10dimes a game off the outlet alone
...which he isn't

Nah im just saying he needs to be fed the ball when he seals his man in the post, establishes position, flashes high in the zone....The game is played andwon inside-out...NOT outside-in...If you watched the game yesterday you'd of watched UCLA go for 7 and a half minutes without scoring in the firsthalf...Why? Because they were doing nothing but shooting jumpers....not going inside and trying to establish a rhythm. Love draws the double/triple team 90% ofthe time he touches the ball in the low post.....that opens up the perimeter and makes everything easier. I realize that most of the time they are up against azone, but penetrate and dish...interior passing/kick outs KILL zones...not rotating the ball between 3 guards and shooting contested jumpers.
And there is a reason that they hype up that outlet....I SERIOUSLY doubt there is another player in the world thatcan throw them like he does...Its a unique talent that draws him comparisons to Walton and Unseld. It gets you easy baskets that otherwise you wouldn't beable to get without Love.

He is an incredible passer - but I think the reason that doesn't mean a lot to people is that passing can be taught. It's not a skillthat can't be developed, whereas with these other guys, they have athletic ability that CAN'T be taught... That's the discrepancy between whyhe's not getting the same credit as other guys, and i include myself on the list of people who are giving him a hard time.
I think he's a fantastic college big man - but nothing i've seen out of him thus far tells me he deserves first round money in the NBA, unless youthink outlet passes and rebounding alone are enough to earn him a starting spot in the league somewhere? I just think he appears to slow and I'm not surehow much better he's really going to be able to get as an offensive and defensive player with what appear to be pretty limited physical attributes... imean, he makes Tyler Hansbrough look athletic.Seems too slow to playthe 4 in the NBA, and too short to play the 5... i don't understand where he fits in and how NBA scouts can be going ga-ga over him? I need anexplanation...

But the talent is definitely there. You can see flashes of why he is touted as he is, from his poise to the awareness (the pass to deavon off the rebound crazy
) to his ability to get his shot whenever, and he was trying to play defense today. Then he's the focal point of the defense every rip, especially when Taj or Davon has an off night like we saw today.
Mayo just playing team ball don't think he's not capable of getting 25-30+ on this USC team. BTW Davon Jefferson has been showing up it's Gibsonthat needs to bring his "A" game on O & D in order for my Trojans to beat KU.

couldnt have said it better myself.i think he is gonna be a very good college player..but like psycho T, I think thats where it will end. and sayingathleticism is overrated is a big stretch...nowadays athleticism is like having functional arms and legs...you have to have it, and most NBA players do.

Was it really? I'd just rub that away if it were blood. Poor PP. Now everyone thinks he eats boogers.

yeah, but if he had rubbed it on his jersey, he would've had to come out of the game. so he did what he did, but eventually he did have to comeout for a few minutes due to the blood.

Bilas brings up a great point. However I can't wait for the matchup tonight, I think Rose will prove why he and Beasley are the nations best freshman. OJwill do his numbers but I see Rose stealing the show.

you could see the blood on his face and the trainers were shoving cotton up his nose.
But you cant develop the outlet.....
yeah, some people are just born with the ability to quickly get the ball to someone who can bring it up court and start the break.

How is Taj Gibson (overrated himself) going to deal with the bigs Memphis can throw out there? He has no help
I'm hoping for a Memphis blowout...I can't stand USC

I think he will do ok, but can he handle Dozier and Dorsey on defense?
