What the heck did he do to warrant the dress down he got?
Standing and watching an ND player go by him for a rebound :noidea:
well, earlier I know he undressed him for shooting a 3...JB was yelling before that occurred, but i saw that. He didn't jump for the rebound. That totally confused me. I understand kids at this level not boxing out - they've been the best leapers on their teams before, but to not jump for the rebound was weird.
Was 2 plays in a row. Rushed three pointer (that Tyler bailed him out with a putback). Jb started screaming at him right after that. Then immediately lost his guy for rebound.
We can agree to disagree on that one. Rushed in that it was early in the shot clock, if I recall. What's his 3 pt % again? He should be running the offense and not shooing in that situation. Jb used him to prove a point. It happens. I didn't see another mental lapse until Gs TO with four minutes left in the game.That was it. That was absolutely not a rushed 3 pointer. I remember saying to my son that that was a great show, in flow, and was wide open. He just missed. No need whatsoever to get upset about that one. Lord knows we have other more 'senior' players who rushed more shots tonight without the need to berate them.
lolHe didn't lose his guy. He simply didn't look for any guy to put a body on and he mistimed his jump.
The guy didn't "go by him".
he's now 1/12 shooting 3sWe can agree to disagree on that one. Rushed in that it was early in the shot clock, if I recall. What's his 3 pt % again?

Getting screamed at by JB is certainly going to help with that.
The shot was fine. Cooney airballed a three tonight early in the clock but didn't get pulled for that.
JB lost his mind and kind of looked silly doing it. Howard looked pissed for a bit.
I think JB realized he went overboard because he actually put Howard back in late in the second half.
I thought it was a good look at the three, but if he has a redlight, I have no sympathy.
I tend to agree it was a bit of build up for Jimmy. He knows these 5 games will make or break our team and he wants to keep the peddle to the metal. He is trying to get some minutes out of Howard plus give him a bit mote experience since he will be key when one of our starters gets in foul trouble in a critical game. Howard is bright enough to know it is Jimmy's way to jump all over freshman mistakes. Howard just needs to keep the game under control and provide turnover free minutes while he is in there.I felt sorry for Howard about that. Here's our point guard under the basket trying for a rebound and he fouls. Other than Mike G, do we really have guards that will go in there with the big boys? Cooney gets some rebounds, but most of his are long range. I don't recall the specific 3 pt shot being referred to so it all could have been a build up for JB. Not the end of the world, hopefully Howard will not get too frazzled by this.
Players have different responsibilities when they are on the floor. I don't think shooting threes early in the shoot clock is what Jim is looking for out of HowardGetting screamed at by JB is certainly going to help with that.

you are comparing how jb treats a 5th year sr who puts up numbers for us with a freshman who hasn't done a thing. In 3 years, jb will not yell at howard.Getting screamed at by JB is certainly going to help with that.
