Who honestly has confidence in Mike Hopkins as the next HC

[two3zone]

Seattle is a major city and center of technology with many major corporations and none of those people stepped up to keep the team there? That doesn't seem like much support. These are also the people who run UW.

I'd love to have a couple of drinks and smoke a doobie with you one day.

Trying to keep old bad habits at bay. Posting on the Fan is the last one. For the most part.

There is a reason the SuperSonics left Seattle.

There is a reason the 76ers left Syracuse.

Washington is playing almost all M2M vs Ball St. tonight, except for out of bounds plays. (Remember that?)

Imposing its superior athleticism and not letting a lesser team dictate tempo.

Quade Green is playing very very well.

It's amazing to see adjustments based on opponent.

Other than Hughes would anyone of our players start for Washington?

Hughes over Hamir Wright and that's about it.

Buddy would probably get limited minutes, Marek probably very little if any. Girard no, Sidibe no. Could see Gurrrier getting some run though.

Agreed. Buddy Guerrier Joe Marek wouldn't start. I actually think Marek could be sixth man for Hop and Buddy would also get some run.

Washington’s downfall will be wing play. Green, Stewart and Daniels will show out in March. Wright Carter are good athletes...not great players.

Ironically, Buddy would be a very good 6th-7th man on the Huskies. He’d stretch defenders and open up the paint.

I agree with Wright, but Carter is a pretty good player at this point. He's shooting 40% or around there from 3. His turnovers are a bit high but outside of that he's turned into a basketball player after the last couple of years.

Buddy would be a great 5th option or 6th man on Cuse.

If you give this team Triche and Fab (2 very reasonable recent players to give to a team) this is a title contender - especially this year.

Or Dion Waiters/Rak

Outside of McDaniel, every one of UW's starters were going to be a good fit at SU.

Realistically, Buddy is made for that role. He's the kind of guy that could turn a good team into a really good team.

 

[HOFCeluck]

I don’t see anyway you don’t play Buddy 40 minutes for that Huskies team. Unless it’s overtime. Then it’s 45.

Pretty sure if Hop had made that guarantee, he'd be coaching SU right now.

WITHDRAWN!

No need for any objections to be lodged.

For those like me who didn't see the game.

They do run the same zone, but their man is a switching man to man, which I've never seen us run. Their man is much better than their zone.

Coming off the bench

"That role" was in reference to the 6th/7th man from the post I replied to.

There are and I doubt you know most of them. The arena is in a terrible location in relation to getting in and out to the neighborhoods you would want. The place was old with bad luxury boxes and the ownership owned none of the parking and land around there which is a huge source of revenue. The Oklahoma guy bought the team and made it clear he was moving them unless he was given an ungodly amount of money from taxpayers during the height of our last recession.

It was awesome to see the in-game adjustments Hop made. UW started in the zone and BSU was playing them even (20-20) by moving the ball on the perimeter and getting open looks. Hop changed to m2m and keyed in on El-Amin who started 3-3 from 3 point range. They alternated Green and Carter on him and the kid didn't get another clean look from beyond the arc the rest of the game. And the m2m really changed the tempo of the game.

Quade Green had a slow start to the season but he has been great the last 4 games. 25:6 Ast:TO ratio, 18.5 ppg, 63% from three.

Stewart is a beast

 

[Gabjon]

Washington's 2-3 zone last night was on point last night, if they cut down on the turnovers they will be dangerous in March.

It was good. Hawaii's leading scorer was 1-17 from 3 and they as a team were 4-35 or something resembling that until they went 4-4 at the end of the game on some banked shots and prayers.

The turnovers are bad, they only had 5 at halftime, when you think they figure it out they don't.

Stewart is so much fun to watch, he seems so automatic with the ball in the post.
