Cornell Game Thread...

[OrangeDW]

I know we've seen this vs. every bad team. But I like Battle starting - I like the energy that can be provided off the bench from Robey/Gillon/TT.

It just nuts to me how much better the offense looks when Gillon is in compared to Howard

I think Gillon has his flaws that can't be fixed, mostly due to his height, but he's the better player at this point. 5th year senior vs. a sophomore who hasn't had a ton of court time yet.

Lydon needs to be as aggressive as Thompson

 

[llandz]

Probably going to go to dinner soon. Will miss most of 2nd half. Keep this going for me please...

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Did he say Phallus got a rebound?

I agree. I would have loved Gillon on last years' team. About 12mpg spelling Cooney/G with that shooting and quickness off the bench. Thinking of him at the top of the zone for significant minutes vs. ACC teams is scary to me, mostly because of his size

Big time board from White there

Fallas

 

[llandz]

Nice reb by White...someone already said it.. but I just saw it

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Fallas

Ooh. Unfortunate name. Now I'm remembering I once had a doctor named Fallis. He didn't have a sense of humor...

That must be frustrating.

I used to know a guy named Peter Stiff, which doesn't seem that bad except when he had to write it last name first.

Taurean can DISH.

 

[jdubs30]

Man TT has been brutal on D this half!

 

[cuseattle]

Lydon is on fire.

You lie like a rug.

 

[SUMBA]

You lie like a rug.

No, it is absolutely true. He sometimes had to write it last name first.

I actually saved some literature with his name listed as I know it sounds made up.

back line of t-square , lydon and a-trey apparently have no interest in playing defense

 

[jdubs30]

Battle might be our 2nd best 3pt shooter

BANG

BANG

Largely why I'm still on the play Roberson thing. We need him. We know what he can provide...he did it for two years. And we could use that. Give him a role and leave him alone.

 

[SUMBA]

This team reminds me of a playground bully. They beat the snot out of weaklings but when someone stands up to them they fold like a cheap suit.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Nice to see White actually attack the basket and move off the ball iinside versus just hanging outside the 3 pt line bricking 3's. He has been much more active today, hope it continues. As someone else noted above the back line D is atrocious, really need TT to develop some D skills quickly.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

As much as I like TT's skills on offense, if his d is so bad, I wonder what his +/- is.

If we want to just let Roberson play... at the expense of Who's minutes? I don't trust having a forward playing center in conference games.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

What's Thompson going to be like as a junior? Who's a good comp?
He needs strength but he's so confident in his skills.

H will be in the D league.
