JB said the players were tired at halftime

[Cusefan0307]

I want to be good so I hope your right.

I am just beaten down.

I don’t believe we are an awful team I just think we are medicore. If Kadary Richmond is so bad he can’t play in the second half of this game then we are in big trouble.

He clearly isn’t bad. I can’t argue with you on JB’s substitution patterns. Richmond looked really good in the first half. He should have played the 2nd half. Girard had the worst plus/minus of any player on the court today.

Im encouraged that Kadary looks legit though. I think he’ll play his way in there. It’s only the first game - no exhibitions, 1 practice in 2 weeks.

He looked smooth and under control on that pullup jumper. Made his FT’s. Passes the look test athletically and height wise. Appeared to have a solid handle, and didn’t play like a moron. Had a steal. These are all pluses. He looks like a player. This is good.

Edit - also made a great pass in transition to Q, I think. That might’ve been my favorite play of his.

It's what he said. That's not subjective. Have you heard the press conference?

Honestly not going to waste energy with somebody wants to chop being literal in one comment and then ignore other comments in the same PC and not take them literal.

Hehehehe...our center situation is amusing.

Just like fans wish we got from Richmond in the second half.

I love Devo but I don't agree and to the tweet that said jg started a top 10 play. It was a top 10 play because of Griff all he did was throw the ball to a wide open guy.

Devo wants access for his podcast, and to further his career. It's not in his interest to criticize JB openly.

Amazing. I was told we could go three deep at C this year! I’ll stick to my comments that we’ll be down to a 6 man rotation by ACC play.

 

[IthacaMatt]

OK, not trying to be a jerk, but if that's how the coach talks to the media about you after the first game of the season, well that doesn't do a lot for motivation, does it?

I agree with him that Anselem and Braswell and Jesse Edwards looked like passengers out there.

But you don't get better if you don't play. Practice isn't everything.

 

[djcon57]

what does this do for Kadary’s confidence? Is he on the team too?

 

[kcsu]

Even if he wasn’t blaming Bryant, it’s still whining.

Hes got to do better in that situation.

Jimmy is the best whiner ever. He is known for it. He whines when his kids give him an I phone for Christmas. He whines about leaving Manley for the Dome, Big East for the ACC, Greensboro you name it Jim will Whine about it. He is and will always be a world class Whiner.

I thought braswell was in good position and his shots were open. He didn’t hesitate which maybe is what he was told his role would be...but clearly didn’t work out.

 

[upperdeck]

people do realize that the pass for the dunk would have been a simple layin, you dont have to dunk it if its not perfect.

He was a coach on JB’s staff i doubt he needs more access

 

[Gotothehole]

People on this board love to attack Buddy, and he is not the perfect player, but he is a very good player.

Who else would he start for?

 

[OrangeDW]

Who else would he start for?

LOL. You act like we were 0-30 last year or something.

He probably would’ve started for most of the teams we beat, and maybe a few that beat us too.

I’m acting like we had a losing record. Players with one skill set don’t start anywhere.

 

[Wrinkle]

Who else would he start for?

He would probably start for a lot of teams. But it's just that with our roster, his weaknesses are further exposed than they should be. Awful defense and no playmaking

We didn’t have a losing record.

We didn’t have a losing record.

Ok got your ok with mediocrity. Hope they both go to the European League next year and you can press secretary

Glad you’re reading into things that aren’t there to try to “get me”...because you were wrong.

I'm frustrated with mediocrity but I don't make up stats to make my point. Get the difference Mr Hole?
