Bethune Cookman game thread

We need Ron back to help Pastner coach. That was terrible

Whatta you looking for a dickslap?

I think we are going to be solid when Tad and JO get back. That game shouldn't have been that close, but we're playing a lot of inexperienced guys. I like Jose, Tad, JO, Wright/Cole, and Lammers personally. I think that lineup will win us some good games.

Lammers is competing to be my favorite player of all-time.

Why didn't Cole play in the second half? I like him on the floor. I can't stand Moore and AD on the floor, especially at the same time. That literally limits us to three offensive players.

It was ugly. We need Tadric and Josh back bad. Lammers is stud but needs some rest. He was gassed again in 2nd half. I really like Jose. Moore has not looked good at all.

He's so awesome. Showed some fantastic touch on his post moves. It's too bad he didn't get a chance to star with an elite shooter like Adam Smith.

I think Justin is going to sit a lot when we are at full strength. I saw potential in him last year but his progression has been minimal through two games.

We have two real PGs on the roster. He will play. It’s only been two games.

Uninspired performance outside of Lammers and Alvarado. Other freshman have a long way to go, as expected. It's tough when your 4th and 5th options (which I'm not sure we even have at this point) have to become your 2nd and 3rd options.

Pastner trying to lose this game? Having Moore in when they are fouling is simply insane

Having Moore in there when we are trying to defend the 3 point line in a zone makes a lot of sense.

Our young uns - especially the big ones - have no concept of how to defend the 3 - especially in any sort of transition.

Off the top I can remember twice when BCU simply went right over him for rebounds. And he wasn't stellar at getting out on the 3. Weight room and film room for him.

BTW - not that Wright was stellar at defending the 3 but he did rebound.

On defense is fine, but when they are trying to foul GT, Moore is definitely not who you want on the court.

Thanks to a Roku, I could watch the game.
I’ll try not to repeat what others have said. Cole has some potential. I should be more careful to watch how different players execute on defense; I’m not sure who played well and who didn’t on that end.
I watched Jose take a couple of wide open threes. BCU left them open, and we aren’t ready to take them yet. They knew we couldn’t hurt them outside. The other half of not hitting the threes is that we don’t rebound them either. If we had a rebounding advantage, we’d have had no issues today. I saw BCU get a lot of offensive rebounds.
Passing was ugly sometimes, and receiving definitely was; we had a bunch of passes go off our hands and into BCU’s or into the stands. A bunch of turnovers wasn’t what we wanted.
We should get better. We haven’t gelled as a team yet

Alston impressed me too. I think that we could start small and play 4 guards and then mix in size as the game goes on.

If he has another big year, then he might dethrone Jack for my favorite player.

Hard to parse it that fine. I was wishing we could get AD off the court too but alas no way to have him magically disappear when we have the ball. I was ready to shoot Lammers when he passed AD the ball against the press. And ready to shoot Jose too for not being there to demand the ball from Lammers.

IIRC we ended up with Lammers, AD, Jose, Alston and Moore - with one sub by Wright that I don't remember who for.
I would have been playing that same 5 at the end when they were going all 3 point shots too.

He'll be up there with my favorite John Salley

They had lots of timeouts left, could have easily done offense for defense subs.

Any update on why Okogie is in a sling
