Sidibe

[Cusesky8214]

A healthy sidibe is a game changer for us...him and pc together can be very solid for us but bourama has some skill offensively that chewy doesn't have. Scary to think of a upperclassmen sidibe and how good he can be if he can stay healthy for his career. What a fantastic game by him! Another ugly win but a win is a win and our young team fights!

He played well, but Pitt is trash.

Reports of his demise were greatly exaggerated.

 

[NorSyr66]

Let's hope he shows no pain when he gets up tomorrow

Absolutely agree...but there is no denying his skillset. Not saying this is the normal because we have seen so little of him due to his health but he has some skills for a big guy that we have been missing for awhile as long as he continues to develop and stay healthy he can end up being very good for us. He just looked so much better tonight even just watching him run up and down the court was way different. Looked like he did the first few games we saw him before he went out with injury. Really hope he stays healthy

Considering half our team struggles in layup line, his production is a big deal.

 

[OrangeDW]

He played well, but Pitt is trash.

Both true statements, but the larger point is he can play and he might possibly be healthy for the first time in months.

Could be absolutely huge for the team. Gives us some depth and another kid that can play, and long term...he’s a fantastic C prospect for us if healthy. Really like what he can do on both ends.

Our staff was so smart for not redshirting him. He got us a W.

 

[iommi]

This is the kind of play I expected. No, not huge double-doubles but that kind of activity and ability to finish around the rim.

If he's healthy, he can be really good in the pick and roll. He has a workable handle to dribble it to the rim. He looked about 75% today. Hope he's trending upward.

Gotta stop fouling 3-pt shooters but those were effort players. Not smart obviously but he was giving max effort. He knew they were not smart plays too.

 

[moqui]

we'd have at least 3 more wins if he'd been healthy all year

kcsu our board physician and tendonitis authority, what say you?

Heck he was getting out on the 3 point shooters better than our guards at times this year, so won't fault the effort. But obviously has to avoid fouling.

Drs. NorSyr66 and HtownOrange prescribe several doses of ibuprofen to keep any and all swelling down. Lots of ice and no other activity. If he wakes up with no pain, he can go on with his day.

I hope the knee was not aggravated.

 

[stuckinbig11]

he actually dunks the ball !

But at what cost? Only kcsu knows for sure, and he has yet to provide his prognosis.

 

[ssbriefcase]

Won't tendinitis be a week to week type thing? So glad he felt good and played really good today.

 

[moqui]

if he can stay healthy the rest of the year it will be like an nba team making a big addition at the trade deadline

I think he’s downstairs...

 

[hoopsupstate]

He has a lot to offer this team. He’s quick off his feet and a very good rebounder from the middle of the zone. He can catch and finish. Great two hand block late in the game.

Sid Vicious

 

[BillSU]

Look what we've been missing! 18 points and SIXTEEN REBOUNDS. He filled our board needs very well. I think he's going to be healthy and came into his own today. Now all we need is for 3-4 starters to average in double figures each game and for Mr. Battle to stick around 20 moving forward and we have a chance to be a good team to move through the rest of the season. I think the week off and review/ practice by JB and the staff did a lot to increase our confidence and overall play although we again shot poorly - 35.2 percent. Let's take it to GT shoot the ball well and WIN.

Take dat JB!!! Skinny dudes can get rebounds after all...well, at least today that was the case.

He's not all that skinny - has a bit of beef on him, w room for more.

Agreed. He’s got the frame to become a horse, much like freshman Wallace and Derrick Coleman did.

It's day to day and it's manageable. I have it in both of my knees.
