    Moore seemed like the better option to me for ball security reasons, but as you say, he didn't appear to be up to it today either. Maybe we'll make the most of our next opportunity up at the Carrier Dome.

    Fair point. He didn't look coached up for the job at hand.

    Henceforth, I shall refer to him as Moses or the baby giraffe instead of #5, and I like him fine as long he is not dribbling, playing with or without the ball outside the 3 point line, fouling 3 point shooters, show boating instead of getting back on defense, or pouting/sulking after a missed...

    That's right... Tadric kept sneaking down the baseline.

    I may have been too hard on Moses. Despite being our high point man on the day, I do not think he played a particularly good game. But, in his defense, I don't think his skill set is particularly well suited to playing offense in the middle of the 2-3 zone. But, there really was no where else...

    Btw, I also trashed stone hands (that's Banks), Devoe and Parhum in my post. It wasn't all about Moses.

    Trying not to be too hard on Moses, but I guess not calling him by name, doesn't really hide my true feelings, does it?

    I agree with others that the team showed horrible "want to" today. They all looked like scared little bitches. I know 'ol Roy isn't popular with the GT faithful, but I like the guy, and if his team had played like Pastner's team did today I guarantee he would have subbed all 5 starters for 5...

    Exactly. This is basketball 101 knowledge of how to attach a 2-3 zone like Cuse's. We did the right thing by passing to the high post to attack the zone, but that was only step one, and after that everything fell apart. #5 was a terrible choice for the interior of the zone. Who thinks #5 can...

    One of whom has never even started a game. This excuse drives me crazy!

    I don't think so. I don't think Arkansas is ranked right now and I think they are 7-0. Other than Elon and Nebraska, our other 4 games have been decided by about 9 points total, and I think we have trailed at the half in 4 out of 6 games.

    Yeah, you are probably right. In the YouTube video you can see that the student sections are full of white out t-shirts, but outside of the student sections you definitely see some orange shirts.

    Wednesday night against Nebraska, the students started an OFFENSE chant in response to the visitor fans DEFENSE chant, and it caught on and got pretty loud for a couple of possessions. So it was DEFENSE... OFFENSE... DEFENSE... OFFENSE. I had never heard that before. I thought it was pretty...

    Ball State game.

    I won't be surprised if someone steps up and hooks you up with what you are asking for. Hopefully so. If not though, check the ticket sites for section 110, row 6, seats 9 through 12. It's not quite floor seats, but it's the first row behind and above the first 5 rows of the sideline student...

    I was there and it was awesome. Thanks for the youtube link. It reminded me that we had a pretty good atmosphere in McCamish Pavilion that day. The students were great. The thriller dome can be one of the best arenas in the ACC, but its easy to forget in the lean times when its half empty...

    Show Yourself, Devoe-Hater

    I think you are right on both accounts. So, only one of his turnovers resulted from those two sequences. I still think they both should have resulted in easy baskets if his teammates had made the easy play.

    Devoe his free throws

    I've noticed that a lot of his free throw misses are dead on line but quite short, just hitting front iron. I have no idea why, but this is the pattern of a lot of his free throw misses.

    Jose out until 12/31

    Please don't encourage this type of bad behavior. Seriously though, I hear you on some of your points, but I cannot completely agree. Banks already has multiple 20 point games this year and is reliable at getting to the line and making free throws. I think he has just as much upside as...

    Show Yourself, Devoe-Hater

    On Devoe's 6 turnovers against Nebraska, as noted by KG, 2 were "questionable" offensive foul calls (both were BS, the 2nd one in particular was complete BS), and I think, if memory serves, 2 more were good passes that were dropped by teammates. Both of the drops were on fast breaks in the...

    One of Boeheim’s (the coach) worst teams ever, bad offense, only one kid that can score, a must win ACC game for GT. Sounds like the perfect storm for one or both of Boeheim (the player) or Dolezaj to torch us for 30. Let’s hope not.
