Cornell Game Thread...

I
I suppose with a name like Fallas, playing at South Carolina wasn't really an option.
I think his brother Richie is being recruited by them.
 
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.

I'd say White doesn't need to play 40. That frees up some minutes. Lydon playing a lot of 5 is not ideal, but...lets face it, Coleman is not exactly Etan Thomas in there. And Thompson is struggling on D.

Out of 120 available front court minutes, how about something like:
White - 30
Lydon - 34
Roberson - 20
Thompson - 15
Coleman - 15
Battle - 6 (with the rest of his minutes at the 2)
 
How come the walkons execute plays better than the mainliners?

Battle 6? I think I like his potential a bunch more than that. Where's "Gillion?"
 
if anyone wants to look at this game as some sort of team barometer please keep in mind JB is 40- 0 against cornell. take it FWIW.

But... optimism!

6 minutes at the 3. The rest of them at guard. I was only doing front court minutes.

The guard minutes are too depressing to do because no matter what Howard has to play a lot.

Well it would have been the seventh sign of the Apocalypse if we hadn't beaten them, so there is that.
 
At this point I just want JB to get to 1,000 this year.
Was hoping it was going to be at the BC game on the 14th at the Dome which I have tickets to, but not gonna happen now.
 
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.
I really liked what I saw from White tonight - he was 0-5 from three but that doesn't concern me. He was very active and like you said, his off-ball movement was really good, and he rebounded strongly. We need him to be a complete player in the acc.
 
white's 10 shots yielded 12 points. 6 of those from the line.
