There's also Westry, too, and Copeland.

Yep, I keep forgetting about Westry. As Cope matures he will be harder and harder to keep off the floor. I like how things are shaping up for the next couple of seasons.

30 point jump in the KenPom with that win let's go

 

[hoopsupstate]

I don’t think I’ve heard anyone say this before

Bell had a spectacular weak side block in the second half.

We are building a great roster. Think about Cuffe, two terrific kids coming in, and most everybody back next year. We are on a great trajectory!

I said earlier this year that he's going to surprise a lot of people this year. He's really hustling. Last year he had 7 steals for the year, he may have passed or equaled that already this year.

Edit--- 5 steals this year

He has to rebound though. I don’t care about steals.

Bell is going to be a star before he is done at SU. He’s getting better at everything. I’m not sure why it’s hard for people to see.

I said it the game thread. Bell is progressing his game in a similar trajectory to Buddy. His mid range will get more consistent over time. Feels like Buddy started off a spot up shooter then branched out. Same goes for Bell.

LSU really shot 2 of 22 from 3 lmao

Which random dude on their team would have gone off for 8 threes if we played in the 2-3 all night??

 

[IthacaMatt]

Nice job tonight. Still many things to work on, but that was a quality win!!

 

[jdubs30]

Btw - If Joe stayed I think he would have struggled Defensively with how Red wants to play

 

[Lukeyloo]

If we beat UVA on Saturday this team will have some serious juice behind them. I’m loving this schedule so far.

Not getting my hopes up for UVA. The pack line defense will not be kind to a driving team like Cuse

2 reb 3 ass 1 blk and I think at least one steal. He’s not going to get a lot of rebounds on offense because he’s our designated 3pt shooter. He also guards a wing on defense. While I agree he needs to rebound better it’s more about seeing him putting in effort and making sure his guy isn’t getting the rebounds.

Normally I’d agree but this isn’t a typical UVA team. This is the year to get a win in their arena.

It shows that he's playing some D and he's hustling more this year. The rebounds will come.

 

[Cuse House]

I have a feeling Saturday could be very ugly to watch. UVA has scored 62, 41, and 56 points in their last 3 games. We know they will play stout defense. Really huge game for us.

On that team: no one

 

[PhatOrange]

Great game !

 

[OmahaCuse]

JJ is still a problem. I’m not sure how long we can allow our 2 guard to go 1 for the season from 3. He had zero fg’s tonight

Need to work in more Cuffe and Q

 

[HOFCeluck]

Btw - If Joe stayed I think he would have struggled Defensively with how Red wants to play

I suspect that’s part of the reason why he left.

 

[Franz69]

Taylor with 5 assists somehow

Assisted on a number of Bell's threes.

He’s doing ok tonight against Alabama. He’s actually in a defensive stance. It’s amazing what a little accountability can do.

 

[Ragman2000]

Weird game. Final score looks great. 1H was mainly a Judah FT fest. LSU couldn’t shoot at all.

I’m happy with the win but this might be the least exciting 23pt romp vs an OOC P5 team in a long time? Judah was great; Bell was hot in the 2nd half; McLeod looked good early; ball movement was way better.

I don’t think we learned much tonight other than Judah maybe has another level that we haven’t seen yet.

This isn't school, we don't need to learn things. We play or watch to have fun. It was fun kicking their ass, full stop.

Yeah Clemson plays in your face man to Man and Joe has been doing fine. He obviously is not the best defender but I think he would be better than some of our guys. His offense is certainly missed on this years team. Cuse!

He’s also not playing extended minutes. I think he took defensive plays off last year to conserve energy.
