Jalen transferring?

[dasher]

We don’t have a John Wallace on next year’s roster. Why are you looking to pick a fight with everyone tonight?

I having a discussion. you are being defensive. Why?

 

[scottynguyen]

Likewise you don’t see my point so you have to make a personal attack. That’s what weak minded people do like yourself. You have all the answers. God bless you buddy!

I'm curious what you 'don't see' with Battle, the only statistic you've cited is a 30% 3-point percentage with no context. He's the defensive focal point of a largely unimaginative offense, playing with a center that basically doesn't have hands. For context, he's an 80% FT shooter, his shot isn't irreparably broken. He shot 80% from 3 on the NBA 3-point racks at the combine. He has good size and quickness at 6'7'' for an NBA 2-guard. By all accounts he's a hard-worker and a good person. He will get a chance in the NBA, whether he makes it, like the majority of NBA draft picks, largely depends on situation and to state that he absolutely won't get a chance is just wrong.

I'm just tired of this program's direction and probably piling on a bit. I think Boeheim has seen his best days and it's time to hang it up. This is too good a program with too many advantages to struggle like this.

Lol!

We are 8-3 in the ACC with a win over Number 1 Duke on the road.

Pump your brakes.

Oh yeah, 2 final fours in the last 5 years.

I love you Ed!

Why? Albanycuse was dead on with his comment but some people here and other places think Carey should just be handed minutes. My point was reinforcing that Carey needs to earn them.

But how does he earn them if he’s never given an opportunity to get comfortable and get in any type of game rhythm?

And why was fans in quotation marks?

We got 30,000 strong and the 2-3 zone....

He is a sr and a starter. And I wouldn't blame someone else for getting tied up.

JB in his presser said that play wasn't Carey's fault.

Probably right. Just felt that was a mistake you let the kid play through as it didn't immediately result in layup the other way, and there weren't immediate tragedies as so many ill-informed posters in this thread seem to be claiming happen the second Carey walks on the floor.

He was being nice.

have you watched him this year? he has been horrible almost immediately.

Townie72 - is this guessing what JB means with his statements allowable? Just need a ruling here.

I've heard making assumptions is bad or something.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

And yet he wasn't tonight. Past performance is not always a predictor...

C'mon Scotty. Don't u know that AlbanyCuse moonlights as an NBA scout?

I know saying jb is wrong is allowed here. So jb was wrong.

JB??? rotflmao.

It's the best predictor, however.

JB knows the inning and the score with this kid right now. No need to pile on him. Taking him out of the game right away was enough

I've seen JB pile on with gusto. Btw he said Carey's teammates let him down on that play.

Not picking sides here...But the 8-3 path hasn't really shown if this team can beat good teams yet. Drop the Duke talk. Did you see what Jones means to the Duke lineup? I would take him right behind Zion. Plus , our non-conference record (besides the big Cornell win)...... SUCKS!!

yep. But not usually when he thinks a kid is going out the door.

My opinion only scotty. He has had his chance last year. And maybe he will get another chance but I don’t see him making it. And I don’t even see him getting drafted late second round. Lok at the mock drafts out there theres a bunch of them.

I can't get into JB's head but we may need Carey at some juncture and I'd prefer to see JB give him another shot. JMO

A lot of those mock drafts are put together by people that are living in their parent's basement. Take them with a grain of salt.

PSA: don’t take anything that guy says seriously. He’s a troll.
