JBs Performance tonight

The problem with Carey is he wasn’t bad. He was terrible. I’ve yet to see a basketball skill out of him.

Also if you’re soo good as a freshman JB will play you no matter if you start or not. We just rode Tyler Lydon’s blocked shots to the FF 3 years ago.

he dribbled the ball up the court some...woulda been better than buddy at the 2.
AND woulda allowed more size in the front court...AND woulda been the same front line as last years sweet 16 squad. marek-ob-chukwu-battle-hughes is the lineup i wanted and posted that i wanted to see before the game...AND would you honestly not want that now if you go back and could see it?????

baylor had their season high in 3s and all time tourney record in 3s and some players had career/season highs in shooting...elijah at the 2 couldnt have been any worse than that!!!! and it woulda been better on offense! than 2 points 0 for 6...while allowing more minutes for dolezaj...no-brainer.

heck, i'd rather have seen that and seen what braswell could do...than 39 minutes of that defense.

I could’ve missed something, but the only time I saw Elijah at the top of the zone was for about 5 minutes in an exhibition game. He was bad up there, and as far as I know didn’t practice up there.

Saying he would’ve been better than Buddy at the two is pure speculation.

Kid played forward all year.

The same argument people are having with Carey right now is the same argument people had with Frank Howard as a freshman. People wanted him to play over Cooney and to be honest looking at the evidence now Cooney was the better player.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Yes, he made a turnover. He's a talented player.
Sometimes you have to let players play in order to get better.

Do you think that Fab Melo would have been the best rim protector in America his sophomore year based off of how terrible he did as a frosh? Maybe if Boeheim played him more, he would have developed faster.

Do you think that Michael Carter-Williams, the NBA Rookie of the Year following his sophomore year, was truly so bad as a frosh that he shouldn't play, or do you think that Boeheim is perhaps too risk averse with his younger players, and as a result, doesn't get as much out of their talent as quickly as other coaches might, if they let them play through their mistakes and learn from it?

Fab Melo is a terrible example for your argument. He was replaced as a freshman by another freshman in Baye Keita when he came out of the game. If it’s a weakness JB plays to win the current game and does not think about the next one.

 

[Day2]

plenty...coulda played hughes and battle as the gaurds

get more size in vs a small baylor...marek and brissettt as the forwards...same as last years better team.

all you woulda done was replace frabnk wth elijah

Playing one guy out of position is plenty?

Dolemarek was in foul trouble anyway.

Calm down before you live up to your name.
