So glad that Jalen got significant minutes throughout the season so that he is ready...oh wait

I know, only 287 minutes.

I asked about this scenario on Monday, no one really gave it any thought. Oh well, feel bad for Tyus.

He did for 2 months...really got him “ready” for that Duke game in Cameron.

Why?

I think I've seen walk-ons with more

I hate to see our best player out but the last game against Pitt Battle shot 2-13. 0-3 from 3. But he did have 5 assists and only 1 TO. We have to win this game with tight defense and hope PItt players are tired.

I wonder what impact Battle's absence has on the betting line.

It’s not his productivity that will be missed, it’s the defensive attention he draws. This could be really ugly tonight.

other than not being able to bring the ball up against pressure, he is great

Honestly i missed that part when that happened. The last time I really saw him play was the uconn, Oregon games and he's a freshman, some people should lay off a tad n cut him a lil slack. Besides I really don't feel like there's too much of a drop off between him and Frank if they were givin same mins. I bet u can tell how disgusted I am with FH at this point.

But the defense was still keying on Battle. Now, with no battle, they can key on Hughes

If he plays like he did vs Clemson, joke is on them!!!

 

[HakAttack]

Would you rather hold him out and have him at 90% for the NCAAs?

Or would you rather play him and only have him at 70% for the NCAAs?

Because let’s be honest here, this this point of the season, even if you hold him out, there will be some residual. No one is 100% at this time of year.

Game time decision

 

[CUSEMODE]

I bet he plays. Jimmy is just messing with Capel. No way he misses his last conference tourney especially. He has too much heart.

 

[sugrad68]

The DEFENSE must be tough.
Unfortunately, Pitt has already seen it twice.

Stop the guard penetration and make them shoot jump shots. Not sure if Buddy has the foot speed to do that. I can't remember the first 2 Pitt games and whether or not they stationed someone at the foul line on offense.

 

[Alsacs]

Battle should be the emergency guard.
For the sake of the kid don’t rush him back from a hip injury.
We can beat Pittsburgh.

Very true! It's gonna show what the rest of the players are made of or lack there of.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Good question. The game was out of reach at that point. He did come out when the benches were emptied for the walk-ons, but he was out there for awhile.

Very silly. I missed last few minutes so missed all of that including fall

 

[hoopsupstate]

He has to start if you plan to play him. Once he warms up, if he sits down he will tighten up.

 

[CorduroyG]

game time decision makes me feel better about next week, even if he doesnt play tonite
