    My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    I’ll throw it out there again in defense of those who tilt negative. “I’m going to turn this thing around in 180 days” is an expectation that was set by the head coach last spring. Folks can parse apart what that means definitionally, but given the range of interpretations I think it’s...

    ACC Tournament - MBB Edition

    You don’t think it’s just an unfortunately timed spasm and lingering symptom from the massacre he experienced during the Wake court storming? It’s incredible that he survived to play another game. Comeback player of the year candidate.

    If those four wins were the difference in those teams making the tourney (they were not, but that seems to be the premise), then we cost ourselves a minimum of $5M+ in payouts from NCAAT units. It is a mildly interesting mental exercise to think about how much each win is worth, and where the...

    Folks, I think you know me and my history here. If you read back through this thread, I hope you can see that I was only trying to respond to Cuse-related talking points that were either misinformed or provide context that was missing. Or respond to those who responded to me. It is an attempt...

    See my last post to hopefully make you feel better. But yes, statistics prove Syracuse is a bad shooting and rebounding team on the whole. Georgia Tech beat UNC and is 4-11 in the ACC. We aren't good either. Let's be real. GT deserved to win yesterday.

    The UNC game was the exception rather than the rule. Back to GT, the Jackets deserved the W. We outplayed and outclassed them. Ndongo was particularly impressive to me. Maliq Brown is probably one of the 20 best players in the ACC in my opinion, or is at least destined to become one, and...

    Injuries aside, this is the most unlikeable 'Cuse team I've ever watched, and it's echoed by many fans. Not sure what was shown on TV, but it was on full display in the stadium. They are a whiny bunch who was visibly and demonstrably arguing with the refs and fighting with each other + coaches...

    This is the correct answer. The 2-3 is to avoid foul trouble, since they have maybe 5-6 playable guys on the roster. Prior to the last few games, about 85%+ of their defensive possessions were man-to-man, and they were top 50 in KenPom defensive efficiency.
