If Jalen Carey

[BillSU]

develops into almost as good a distributor and shooter, as Carsen Edwards we'll be fine at the point. Not.

 

[OrangeDW]

...why would he?

 

[Cusefan0307]

Lol not a lot to ask. Edwards averaged 24 a game. We haven’t had anyone do that since Bing.

Edit: ok Kohls did, but that was 47 years ago.

These are the type of reasonable expectations that really define our down to earth fan base.

Good save.

Why wouldn’t he?

Carey is almost close to Edwards. He can’t get to the rim without getting blocked and he can’t shoot a lick. I’d be happy if he could handle and pass like Eddie Moss.

LOL I literally burst out laughing when i read this.

jalen carey took all off 19 shots coming in cold in calendar year 2019. made six. nice sample .

 

[OrangeDW]

Not good enough.

And how about in 2018?

I was thinking if that is all Carey becomes, i will be a bit disappointed

 

[tbonezone]

2018 you ask ? don't have jalen's numbers but another guard here went 14-55 from the field and 8-36 deep thru december. any guesses ?

 

[721Comstock]

Yeah, I definitely think he should pass like Kenny Anderson, shoot like Curry, score like Pistol Pete, and be clutch like Kemba & GMac.

Anything short of that, and his college career is an abject failure.

If Robert Braswell can have a season similar to Kevin Durant at Texas in 2007, I personally will be quite pleased.

 

[Cusefan0307]

From a purely skill set and body comparison Girard compares more favorably to Edwards than Carey...not saying Girard ever averages 24 a game, but still.

 

[OHIORANGES]

If Sidibe plays like Bill Walton did at UCLA i’ll barely be satisfied

 

[SWC75]

If Otto the Orange turns into Carsen Edwards, we'll be in great shape!

 

[tbonezone]

if the dome ranger could just turn into wonder woman ...

we'd be in great shape.

 

[SWC75]

Bring Back the Dome Ranger!!!!!

If Marek turns into Dirk Nowitzki next year, we should be a top eight ACC team.

If my Aunt had any balls, she'd be my Uncle.

... was trying to be sarcastic, Houston. Guess it didn't work. Maybe Girard will be good enough to not dribble off his foot every time he gets the ball.
Maybe I should have expected “if JAB disappears we'll be a top ten team from those on the board that are less than his fans.”

jalen carey was not given enuf actual playing minutes down the stretch for anyone with an ounce of reason to even form an opinion of his performance. you wanna grade an occasional 2 minute cameo vs a 30 plus player ? averages 1 turnover per game last ten. and then gets yanked immediately ? i'm starting to smell a bit of bias . they may want someone else getting mega minutes. ok. but to read comments like "he turns the ball over every time he touches it " are just blatantly false and agenda driven. a much better handle than buddy no question there.
that's why they actually let him bring the ball up court.
