That is what they deserve!**** them. Let them be Clemson basketball fans with LazyAD running the show.

Personally, I think that we match-up well with them. If Moses can win the battle against Huff, I like our chances.To think if we had been doing contact practices since the beginning we probably beat state and Mercer and sit at 9-1 right now. Really interested to see how we stack up vs UVA. They had the upset loss in the beginning of the year and got steamrolled by Gonzaga... but so has everyone else, so I think they’re better than their ranking.
Yes he did but I’m not sure heaving up a heavily contested desperation shot with 1 sec on shot clock and missing the rim by 6 feet qualifies as a shot attempt.I could have sworn that Devoe missed a buzzer beater 3 late in the 2nd, and the announcers mentioned it too.
That scenario does count as a shot attempt, but the official scorer rightfully deemed it a pass because Devoe doesn't miss.Yes he did but I’m not sure heaving up a heavily contested desperation shot with 1 sec on shot clock and missing the rim by 6 feet qualifies as a shot attempt.
Of the 7 players in the rotation... Alvarado, Devoe, Sturdivant, and Usher are 4 stars. Khalid, Moses, and Bubba are the only ones who weren't highly rated.
I mean.. dang. That was fun huh?
I was texting with my dad throughout the game that this is the first real tournament ready team we have had since 2004. CJP had the boys tuned up right last night and we layed the wood with authority.
We made it through without Khalid, but I’ll be happy to have him back so that we can avoid small ball of/when a usher needs a calibration moment to slow himself back down in games. Jose/Devoe/Bubba/Kyle are looking like they came to play in the guard rotation and Moses isn’t messing around anymore. Someone got in his ear about the [̲̅$̲̅(̲̅100)̲̅$̲̅] he can make in the NBA and he is here to show what’s what.
Let’s go get it against UVA. One thing that has me feeling particularly bubbly is that we ran ABunch of slowed down half court offense and looked to pick our shots. That’s what we will have to do against UVA. The land of transition ball, they are not.
Not in the rotation thoughSaba Gigiberia was rated a 4-star when he committed to us:
4-star center Saba Gigiberia picks Georgia Tech
Georgia Tech coach Josh Pastner has landed his big man of the future.www.ajc.com
He was a top 100 guy by both 247 and Rivals at one point.
We have 5 guys who were top 150 nationally.
Let's actually make the dance once before we have that talk.When does Coach Past we contract ends? Shall our AD be talking to him about renewing his contract?
Yeah the post I was replying to was talking about the rotation so I didn't include Saba. He is only getting like 3 mins a game.Saba Gigiberia was rated a 4-star when he committed to us:

Compared to the players on Cremins teams there is no one that was near the rating of his!!! Absolutely no one, and that makes me even more proud of these guys!!!!!!!Of the 7 players in the rotation... Alvarado, Devoe, Sturdivant, and Usher are 4 stars.

It's funny. I really like watching them (when we aren't lined up against them) because of the disciplined approach they take to playing the game. The things we don't like about playing them are some of my favorite parts about basketball.I hate playing UVA. Their style of play is just so frustrating. Being down six points to them feels like a 15 point hole. EVERY possession is a battle. If you turn over the ball to them it's just soul crushing.
It will definitely be a fascinating matchup given how well we have played.

Jose was being Jose. He was dribble penetrating and dishing for open shots. He was pushing the ball on offense and his standards swarming defense. He just didn't shoot as much as he usually did.We did it as Jose had an "off" night for him. We played some outstanding ball without Jose being "Jose"...if we can keep it up AND get "Jose" back, just WOW. Also bodes well for next season as Devoe and Sturdivant will be our starting guards.
Last night was a really good win. The kind of win we have to have if we are going to make up for our early sins and sniff the bubbly this year. As have pointed out, our next 6 are crucial and we have to have at least 3 wins - and 4 would be really helpful to keep on the bubbly track. The ACC is down this year so we have to be higher than normal in the standings to stay relevant to the committee.
We should be very happy going 3-3 over the next 6. This is a tough stretch of games even in the cupcake ACC:
