Postgame Thoughts… GT

[NineOneSeven]

Awful first 5’ of this one….but a great close to build a halftime lead.

Girard was phenomenal all over the court (while not sitting). Especially in the first half when we needed it, and some great passes to Edwards and Brown in the second.

Brown was equally great. So many deflections, smart plays, strong finishes. Love his game a LOT and have for awhile.

What’s nice is having options. Props to Copeland for his solid minutes today. Same with Hima.

Wish we didn’t blow the Miami W.

 

[UpstateSM]

Exactly what we needed.

Zero reason not to beat UNC at home on Tuesday. Let’s get hot.

The board overreacts entirely too early. Basketball is a game of runs.

Benny Williams is not a happy camper. Big win CUSE!

 

[MikeSU02]

Fix the start of games.

Brown deserves to start.

Joe was awesome. Judah was passing. Maliq is just so dang good.

Good effort from Q.

 

[DoctahLexus]

Screw GT. Big win. Great day to be orange.

 

[two3zone]

Joe and Brown, wow, don’t have enough words to say about them.

Copeland defense was great, very active.

Judah was so much better after he hit the bench for extended minutes.

Jesse was great.

Benny and Bell? I don’t care if they don’t play a minute the rest of the year. Benny is an awful basketball player.

I mean he and Bell have to see the difference in results no?

 

[hoopsupstate]

Joe played with great pace today. He seemed like he could get to wherever he wanted to go. There was a sense of calm when he had the ball. I haven’t always been able to say that.

Boeheim needs to figure out the right combos faster. Once he does the team always plays better. It's just getting to that takes too long.

Good pack up and play for OCC.

honestly shouldnt even be a point of discussion anymore.
it’d be like saying “LOUIE MCCROSKY IS NOT HAPPY” back in the day.

Figure out? It is figured out, he just doesn’t do it.

 

[samspann1]

Thank you, Joe.

Love the energy that Brown and Copeland bring.

Agree. It’s frustrating falling behind every game.

Hide the folding chairs!

Ehhh, we have lost plenty at the end too.

 

[OptimusOtto]

Joe was a monster today. Brown needs to start, such great minutes when he’s in. I loved the early use of the press. With our roster it should be incorporated more frequently as a tool, not a desperation ploy late.

Looking forward to Tuesday. Must win if we’re going to make a tourney push.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I love the fact that JB is running some quick hitters with backdoor lobs to Jesse and Malik. This will eventually get Joe some wide open shot.

 

[OrangeinBoston]

Haven’t seen too many games. So, I guess Boeheim has woken up to the fact that Brown is one of the top 3 players on the team?

Truth, I was told GT was going to run us off the court

He played 12 mins last game. So no.

 

[BlackSquirrels]

I had Maliq Brown at +28 today.

A few more games like this, he might pass Victor Wembanyama on the BlackSquirrels draft big board.
