I'm so happy for BJ and his father...

[cto]

BJ was our best shooter today. He was 3/4 from the 3; 3/5 from the floor; and 2/2 from the line.

I hope this game is the confidence-builder he needs to become the player we hope he will.

 

[Madbiker]

He is looking a lot better with increased playing time. Still think he has potential if he stays.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

maybe we can now put a rest to the "cant play at this level" premature joculation. Anyone who has played basketball , and whose game is primarily a shooter, realizes that you can go into a confidence death spiral pretty quickly if you are new to a level or degree of competition with a few misses. Its all in the head.

Who makes room for Bryant?

Kentucky.

lets support the guys who decided to commit to Syracuse above the guys who haven't even joined the family

Well, hopefully Coleman can play 35 minutes a game next year.

Piss poor post. BJ isnt going anywhere. His time to shine is the next 2 years.

Don't worry. McCullough will be a beast at the 5.

I'm worried.

I hope this game is a confidence-builder that is just what he needs to become the player we hope he will.

AMEN!!! Great job, BJ!!

 

[cuseguy]

I'm happy for BJ's mother.

So happy for the young man. Not giving up on any of these guys. Very competitive team, bunch of tough breaks and losses we could have pulled off. They still seem to fight through all of the nonsense that only we seem to get caught up with.

Its was McCollough, now most likely G, IMO. All he can show next year is more of the same.

 

[bballbeadle]

Little to be happy about, but that is definitely something!

 

[orangefan13]

I always love a forward who puts it up with a high arc, you just get the feeling its swish or nothing. Carmelo Anthony, Demetrius Nichols, James Southerland, BJ Johnson, Chris McCullough.

Hopefully it isn't G leaving.

 

[MikeSU02]

And remember BJ is basically the same age as Malachi Richardson!

Congrats BJ!

 

[Ryand877]

We lost. Nothing to be happy about.

seriously?

I don't think G is going anywhere. As I said before, who is the last player to leave (not to the NBA) when they had time left? Devo and Harris, not their decision.

He's a second round draft pick, at best, right now.

A strong senior year and he moves into the first round.

Anyway, Pitt sorta took away his strengths today.

No, BJ is a nice player but he has been recruited over time for him to move on, with Bryant there is a legit shot at the Final 4.

 

[realorange]

We lost. Nothing to be happy about.

Oh Lord

 

[realorange]

I just love these threads where incoming freshman have already made the starting five before they hit campus. High school ball does not equal Div. 1. Oh, and I forgot that Bryant might have a problem learning the zone.

 

[RF2044]

Today was a GREAT performance from BJ. Hope it is something to build upon, because this is the first time he's gotten it done against a decent team.

We could use the bench pop. He and Patterson both had solid contributions today.
