OT: Patrick Ewing...LOL!

[OrangeDW]

His best player takes a stupid shot and seems to be insisting that he practices it, meanwhile Patrick’s gotta be thinking “NBA assistant >>>>coaching these dumb college scrubs” as he chews him out.

 

[OrangeFoo]

I loved it when I first saw it. I think it shows that Ewing is going to stick around for a while as a college coach.

 

[asj410]

I'd love to see the shot he's referring to.

 

[jncuse]

Seems like a pretty fair approach by Ewing.

Agreed. I couldn’t believe he had to repeat himself like 4 times though.

 

[Jake]

That's great. That's really good, smart coaching. I'm impressed.

Here's the rest of the translation that's not subtitled:

"By yourself? I have never seen you shoot that shot. I have never seen you shoot that. I have have never seen you shoot that, so don't shoot it."

 

[Madbiker]

Ewing was right. Kid took a weak fade away j that had no chance. Though he handled it well with the kid instead of just being angry he gave a reason why it was a bad shot.

 

[Col. Bleep]

The important thing is that a G-town player took a bad shot.
May they lose every game forever.

I LOOOOOOAAAAATHE G-town and that alleged coach.

Agreed. I was impressed. I wonder if Mullin has even picked up a clipboard and run a huddle yet. And yes I'm well aware he's beaten us twice and it makes me sick!

 

[Knicks411]

the fact that the kid had the balls to say he practiced that is one of the greatest things ever

Yea, because Patrick has made soooo many series clinching shots in his career. Clank! Georgetown still sucks.

You know! I couldn’t believe it. LMAO. After Patrick described the shot, I was expecting the kid to shut up and nod his head until Patrick moved on.

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

A Georgetown thread huh ...

It's so amazing, Ewing's reaction is great. I love every bit of that. They definitely didn't get to rhetorical questions yet at Gtown

 

[SUFan44]

I can almost guarantee Jim Boeheim has said more or less that same thing on more than one occasion to more than one guy.

I think Patrick is going to be better than people think there.

This generation, and the next one coming up, has no idea what a rhetorical question is. They are all so confident they actually think I want to hear what they have to say. It's kind of weird.

I wonder if that player’s mom wrote Ewing a scathing email for crushing her boy’s self-esteem by correcting him and holding him back from displaying his true special talents?

 

[TinyManInside]

I originally thought Gtown hiring Ewing was just a gimmick. To be honest, it seems like he actually wants to coach, and is learning to coach. I thought this was going to be one of those Chris Mullins deals where he is the face of the team but doesn't do any actual coaching.

If she didn't, I'm certain she's looking for a loophole in the transfer rules - my boy's coach is kind of mean with his questions!!!!

 

[TinyManInside]

I wish they had the rest of the audio. When the kid says "Yes" to Ewing's "do you work on that shot?" question... the look on Ewing's face is awesome.

 

[xc84]

Seems like SU had a player a few years ago who said something like that too... and Boeheim ripped him too.

 

[cuse10]

Bringing that good ol' Caribbean scolding to college basketball. Loved that moment. Sometimes you see things on the court that were so dumb you just have to ask what were they thinking.

Ewing really wants it, he was an NBA assistant for a long time

 

[LaggyJon]

I have zero affection for Ewing and less than that for the school.
But I unironically love everything about this video.

It was Buss. “Coach, I almost made it.”
