JB said the players were tired at halftime

[bozophobe]

Who does Buddy keep grimacing at?

 

[OrangeXtreme]

I'm not buying that. Missing that much time and saying it caused guys to have been tired is exactly why you wouldn't play guys the entire 2nd half. Its ludicrous.

Mayor McCheese

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Boeheim sez things.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

I don't understand that quote. They are in shape but not in shape?

Oh JB...

 

[SaltLakeOrange]

Buddy had 21. Don’t know why you keep lumping him in with Joe...who actually was terrible.

Buddy is a liability. He can’t play a lick of defense and never will. We got LUCKY to beat a low mid major. Sure, he will get hot and hit some shots, but Buddy Boeheim does not deserve 30+ minutes a game. Ever. And when JGIII plays as bad as he did, the only reason they keep playing is because JB will ride his starters and lose rather than ”risk“ playing a freshmen and lose (or be exposed as a coach who chooses his stars).

His normal passing is atrocious as well. Just won't make a quick pass around the three point line. Holds it just a second too long and then passes, or misses the open guy and passes back to Joe.

I thought Devo was going to fix this...

Out of sync.

Be glad its just basketball and not synchronized swimming. Someone could have drown.

Right. I agree with some of that. But he wasn’t terrible all day. He had 23.

His defense is still really, really bad.

JB comments at halftime and after the game tells me he thought his players could coast to a win against Bryant and he was going to try to use this game as a scrimmage. His halftime comments were trying to build up an excuse in case they lost. If he felt that this wouldn't have been an easy win then he would have canceled the game IMO. He got more than he bargained for with Bryant.

 

[SUbear]

JB is in the process of Boeheim’ing Richmond. He can’t have him playing better than his chosen two star guards...

BS. Kadary did not play well today, He may or may not be better at the point, but noevidence he is at present. Boeheiming is a board thing but in reality is BS.

On the plus side Buddy had 3 rebounds in the first half.

He finished the game with 3 rebounds.

You thought Kadary didn't play well today? You might be the only one on the board to be honest? And he clearly outplayed JGIII in the first half. Playing JGIII over Kadary for the entire second half is exactly why people complain.

Didn't need the second hand to keep the tally, did you?

 

[Consigliere]

I’m being pretty sarcastic with this thread. I think its close to criminal that JGIII and Buddy player the entire second half. They were both terrible all day. If they get these minutes and play this much, wait till the regular season...Richmond is a better player than Girard. He deserved minutes today!

Please explain how Buddy was “terrible all day.”

I think it extends well beyond this board

 

[SUbear]

No he did not. Both played like crap. You are wishful thinking if you think Kadary was better in this game, he may be at some point, but I also know Joe can play better than he did today.

BS? Know what was BS?

JGIII was just outstanding, wasn’t he? Fully deserving of 20 in the second half...Richmond, at his worst, couldn’t of been worse than JGIII was today. Richmond not playing was BS.

I’ve been watching this coach for 40 years. Boeheim’ing is real! You may just chose to ignore it.

I have a feeling more people agree with me than you. Let's take a poll.

 

[Jake]

I think it’s possible JB didn’t want Girard with a goose egg and trusted him in the first game out. I don’t think he has the same patience with Joe in 2 weeks.

 

[SaltLakeOrange]

He was a net negative while playing greater than 30 minutes.
I think a ’star’ player needs to be able to do more than shot open jump shots.

Where exactly was he better or even good for that matter? Both were terrible in todays game, so the coach went with the guy with more experience. You may choose to ignore that but there it is.

That is actually more true than most of us would like to admit. I DVR the game. So I don't even get a stop in action or halftime. I'm beat

yeah I think this will be my m.o. from here out
