    Georgia Tech at Duke, Jan 26, 9pm, ESPN

    I agree about devoe. He should be a catch and shoot guy. But even when he does get open looks, I have never seen such a good shooter that is so hesitant to shoot the ball. I can’t count how many good shots he has passed up during his time here. I think part of the problem is that he seems to me...

    Georgia Tech at Duke, Jan 26, 9pm, ESPN

    He has played a short bench for 5 seasons here. It is what he does. It’s a weakness in my opinion.

    Georgia Tech at Duke, Jan 26, 9pm, ESPN

    Pastner’s team is much improved offensively. His defenses have been consistently good. However, he has to learn how to manage player minutes and how to use the bench to rest his best players and the threat of the bench to motivate his best players.

    Georgia Tech at Duke, Jan 26, 9pm, ESPN

    Our offense the last 2 games has been run through Moses at the top of of the key way too much. That set is terrible. It plays right in to the defense’s hands. It is way too easy to defend. It takes Moses out of contention as a scoring or rebounding threat and it allows the defense to basically...

    Article on possibility of canceling conference tournaments

    I can’t believe teams are allowed to opt out of a conference tournament. I understand why a team that is a lock for the ncaa would want to skip a conference tourney this year due to the risk of possibly getting covid and being ineligible for the dance, but that same logic applies every year for...

    Georgia Tech at Virginia, Jan 23, 8pm, ACC Network

    We played a good to great first 30 minutes, then pretty poorly for the last 10. Can’t say I didn’t see it coming. Several of our guys looked a little gassed from early on to me. I didn’t like how we ran the offense through Moses at the top of the key. He wasn’t a threat from out there (despite...

    Georgia Tech at Virginia, Jan 23, 8pm, ACC Network

    Jose might have a little extra motivation for this one. Not that he ever lacks motivation, but it was pointed out to him in the presser this week that he has never beaten uva (or Duke) since he’s been at GT. He smiled and basically said he was not aware of it, but he didn’t like it and would...

    9.5 favorite over Wake

    The team handled their business and got the W in convincing fashion. That is a good thing. However, I thought we played too casual and sloppy on offense during long stretches of the game. Luckily, Wake was not good enough to make us pay for it. Also, I was slightly surprised that Pastner didn’t...

    UNC game watching?

    I’m in Atlanta. I used to get the Fox RSNs as part of YouTube tv, but not anymore. ACCNX is streamed on ESPN online, but it is blacked out in the Atlanta area, so I use a vpn server (from Nord VPN) to get an IP address outside the Atlanta area. This allows me to get the ACCNX stream on ESPN...

    Kentucky Win Post Game

    Great win against a high profile team. Our guys didn't get intimidated by the size of Kentucky. Moses was a stud. Bubba was a stud. We got great contributions from Sturdivant and Alvarado. It was a weird game from Devoe. He did't score, but he played good defense and he didn't kill us with...

    Game Thread - @ Clemson, 3/6/2020

    Not our best game by any stretch. Not the best game by the officials either... again. Our guys didn’t give up though. They played hard for the win at the end and got it. Devoe came up big down the stretch. Everybody in the building knew he was our only option to score down the stretch and he...

    Pastner vs Crean

    What about Asanti Price? Does anyone think he can develop into an ACC level player? I like his athleticism. I hope he finds his shooting stroke and can earn some playing time and make the most of it.

    GT @ Syracuse 2/22 @ 4pm

    Syracuse compressed and shifted their back line zone defense up to stop Moses from operating in the lane in the second half. As a result, the low post and short corner were wide open to our offense for most of the second half, but we failed to recognize the opportunity and do anything with it on...

    Scrapping The Princeton Offense

    I would like to add that there was a material change (for the worse) between year one and year two in where Lammers played on the floor. Year one Lammers was usually positioned at the high post/free throw line. Year two he increasingly extended out to the top of the key which was not nearly as...

    Pastner vs Crean

    This is unfortunate but probably true.

    GT / Louisville

    A lot of our turnovers come from our guards penetrating with no intention of scoring. They drive all the way to the basket, but you can tell they are hoping to kick out to a shooter or make an interior pass to a big rather than take a challenged shot at the rim. The problem is the defense...

    GT / Louisville

    Regarding the crowd last night, I walked in right at tip-off and was immediately very disappointed in the home crowd turnout. Both student sections (sideline and behind the basket) were full from the start. Visitor section behind the Louisville bench was also full of red from the start. Both...

    GT / Louisville

    As a few others are saying, Bubba is lightning quick; he has a good first step off the dribble and easily gets by defenders. He also has a great vertical jump and a good mid-range, pull-up jumper. So, he is not just a spot up 3 point shooter. I wish he would use his quickness and mid-range...

    GT / Louisville

    Crowd was atrocious for a game against national #5, but those that were there were loud. Students showed up but the rest of the place looked pitiful at tip-off, and then filled in a little bit. Great win though, and great time in the thriller dome.
