What level win is this in regards to the tournament ?

Still no "bad losses."

What a wonderful Saturday. How about Copeland and JJ today? Hima!

Q and JJ came up big, and a lot of other things came together. Whole team effort. Great to see Hima out there.

the defense was stifling. if not for some of the softest calls I have ever seen in the 2nd half and some offensive putbacks...gtown had nothing.

and it can still get better...some breakdowns that can be cleaned up.

Taylor doesnt offer much on offense against p5 teams...cant get any separation...but his defense is solid.

would like to see the team find a way to get him some open looks. it doesnt seem like it will happen on its own.

best allaround team game this year...trending up

 

[Red Holzman]

Good to see the team having fun-
Been a while

Starling’s form looked genuinely better/smoother today, noticeably so. Copeland went full boss mode… when was last time we saw a putback dunk like that?! Feels like it’s been years.

Not important, might be Q2 come year end but likely Q3

 

[CuseTG2003]

A lot of positives. Georgetown isn't good, so it was awesome to see us impose our will in the 2nd half. This team's frustrating at times, but very fun to watch. We're very dangerous if JJ and Cope maintain that level of play.

Q's put back dunk was awesome! Hima needs to take some of McLeod's minutes.

I’m 70 years old and Georgetown will ALLWAYS be our arch rival!
Kicking their ass NEVER gets old!

i was wondering if someone showed him the clips from the thread of him from HS...seems his form was much closer to that today

Probably the most fun I’ve had watching a game since the UVA comeback. Reminded me of the 2010-2012 years where we got a lead and buried them at the end of the game with highlight dunks. Fantastic. Im getting lit at the Christmas party tonight.

Mmmm. This guy called it about JJ.

hima is better than mcleod.

mcleod needs to be himas sub

Red did a nice job with the clock the final three minutes. He really spread the floor and let his guys run clock and then attack the basket. Hima was a big factor in the second half. When they lock in, they can play some decent defense. They have to know that when someone drives, Hima is going to go for the block and someone needs to drop down to help the helper( Hima). The opposite corner guy has to drop. Bell watched on three occasions.

Agree, Hima is quicker and plays better D.

 

[Chip]

That was a lot of fun. Hoyas never went on a run all game. Lots of LOUD orange in the house as always.

And I didn’t have one drop of alcohol the whole game. There’s hope for me yet.

LGO!

If Starling can play like this for the rest of the year, then we can definitely win some games.

 

[hungrychuck]

Red’s signature win to date.

Helmet stickers to Copeland, Starling, Brown and Hima.

And to the traveling Orange fans for taking over that building.

Yeah, Georgetown still sucks. But I thought we were pretty good as well.

 

[bballbeadle]

I think Red may have unlocked something here. Need to see a ton more of Q and Hima

Hima I like. I know Q did well but he still turns the ball over and that gives me shaky potatoes.

 

[sdhall01]

that was FUN!

Starling and Q were huge today, and Brown was a menace. Great to see!

Copeland came to play. He was excellent.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Hima can help this team. He flashes and can pass a little. We saw a little more cutting today. Red can show the film to show what happens when you cut. We still need more, but it’s a start.

 

[OrangeFoo]

The talent is starting to show through now that they are listening to the coaches.

Interior D is still shaky potatoes.

If they can focus for each and every possession they can do damage against good teams. But the mental lapses and dumb turnovers are going to really hurt against better teams.

Still not sure why we aren’t laying bodies on people to set screens.

Where has he been?

 

[Cusefan0307]

They were 5-26 from 3. Epps and Massoud were 2-15. If we played zone full time I doubt that’s the case. I thought Taylor did a great job on Massoud and we did a good job overall of trying to run Epps off the line.
