Postgame Thoughts... Pitt game 2

[690West]

They’re gonna play the presser next on twitch

JB has never huddled with or consulted with his assistants during a timeout. Not Hop, not Murphy, not Weaver, not Fine. He’s just never done it. I did see once in a great while Hop would walk past him and say something to him. But that’s it. Has nothing to do with the current assistants.

That is interesting.

 

[AZOrange]

I really think he might have skipped the presser

Nope. Spent half the time blaming Jesse and the other half Joe.

He was unhappy with Joe. He basically said he falls apart if he doesn’t get off to a good start.

Yeah Hop was the only one…

Was that the fastest a game thread has ever been shut down? Someone had a trembling finger on that button for the last five minutes.

They have been pretty consistent at shutting it down this year. Must be on the clock!

Was at the game tonight (I know) and the only word to describe them is: drained

- Drained from the hype all off season of the family farewell tour & AA expectations for Buddy
- Drained from the lack of depth on this team where the starters are visibly exhausted to the point of impacting performance in the second half every game
- Drained from the postgame comments from JB and remarks about Benny's lack of development, along with lack of accountability for the sons
-Drained from the shame of holding Jim's only ever losing season, along with being called "SU's least athletic team ever"
-Drained from the "JB Retire" crowd - they hear it all

After seeing them in person and a performance like that, there is more than enough evidence than what this program needs more than anything is an influx of energy, personnel, and positivity. It's hard to imagine that coming from JB any longer.

As they say-It's about the Jimmys and the Joes. Both greatly struggled tonight and Buddy's hero ball when Girard was out was the final nail in the coffin.

Wonderful

Have heard that self immolation is underrated.

tried that after Sunday night...

 

[orangepassion]

When even the Syracuse University representatives are saying it publicly

 

[JeremyCuse]

Great audio

 

[jec1521]

Don’t forget: 1) No students on campus all month. 2) Much stricter COVID protocols than other states and other schools.

Yea, that's the problem.

 

[samspann1]

Wonderful

I wonder if he was specifically asked about Jesse or just took yet another shot at him.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Or they are good at what they do but are not in charge and follow their bosses decisions. It happens every day in life.

Maybe Red, GMac and Griff should pull a "9 to 5" and lock Dabney Coleman in the basement?

 

[MikeSU02]

Wonderful

Boeheims, combined:

12 of 33 from the field
4 of 18 from three
5 of 7 from the FT line

No need to talk about defense.

Great job hammering Jesse.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Wonderful

need the bees check

If true, man might be senile. Uh yeah it would be nice to have more. From everyone! Talking about capability though? Interesting word given our team.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

I wonder if he was specifically asked about Jesse or just took yet another shot at him.

Said Jesse needs to get stronger. He gets the ball down low, but can't muscle his way to the basket just yet.

 

[newmexicuse]

Have any 2 forwards ever combined to play worse while logging 70 minutes of PT than Cole/Jimmy tonight?

We may have just witnessed some history!

They starred compared to the PG play.

 

[Alsacs]

Great audio

JB sounds like he is the train conductor. That is pretty funny.

Yep. Has always been the case.

 

[Toga]

He was unhappy with Joe. He basically said he falls apart if he doesn’t get off to a good start.

 

[rrlbees]

Wonderful

That’s completely taken out of context. He’s talking about his strength and how he was getting bumped around. And that he’s a good player but to be a great player he’ll need to get stronger.

 

[Ghost]

Okay, feeling better after the presser. We make shots we can win, and if Jesse can just get from being a good player to be a really good player, we could actually win some games I think!

LGO!!!

 

[NorSyr66]

On many occasions JB has indicated he watches basketball game after basketball game every day. I wonder if he ever compares the team he has put on the floor this year for Syracuse to what he is seeing across the country is a variety of conferences. Does he watch the quality of bench players and substitutions? Does he see the offensive plays being run? Does he see the mix of defenses being used to slow down opponents strength? Does he see inbound plays or ways to break the press? Maybe he should watch the Hallmark Channel and we focus on a coaching change!
