JB's Presser after UConn

I love Boeheim but sometimes his coaching is comically simplistic. I talked to a former player (from the early 2000s) once, and asked him what Boeheim would say in the huddle during timeouts. He told me one time Boeheim called at TO in a close game against UConn and specifically told the player "I need you to get a steal on their next possession". The player gambled for a steal and came up short, then UConn got a dunk because he was so far out of position. Next timeout Boeheim said to him "I told you to get a steal, not give up a dunk!"
 
Don't get the need to crap on the kid in the press conference. He had a good game. Leave it at that.

Interesting to compare JB's comments about Moyer or what he'd often say about Roberson last year versus his tolerance for Howard's horrific performance last night.
