Holding them to 9% from the floor

No, no, no, we are playing terribly. We should be up by 40 against a 16 seed. We aren’t going anywhere only holding teams to 11 points.

Just a lot better than this team.

Yep...

[raise the zag]

Why won't Rui post up anymore?

As in back to basket and make a post move?

Always faces up, every time, even when he could back them down and score.

He did vs Duke. He did last year.

Almost refuses too since WCC play.

I like kispert quite a bit. He fits well, but should be a stand up open 3 pt shooter and one dribble driver. That first three he took was awful. His defense has gotten a lot better over the year though

Jeremy Jones turnover -a-thon.

Odd really. Been under control all season.

Kispert playing well, making good decisions, and staying tough on defense.

That said, future teams will pick on him, and Jones must be ready to play/contribute.

When he shot it, thought looked like a got to finally shoot one, forced it under pressure, not a good one

[bballbeachbum]

I like the depth here at full strength, like 7- 8 starters on this team, just no let up

[rennis]

1 seed against a 16 seed. This is how it's supposed to go.

This.

Exactly what I thought. One of those “My turn” shots. I really like kispert, it that one was ugly. He is an underrated rebounder too. I think he is a lot better than Jones.

I totally agree with you JM. Like his game. So do the coaches. The hand wringing on this board about him is unfounded. He plays his role perfectly. He will make some more believers next year.

Spot on

Clarke keeps looking as his hand? The last two timeouts he keeps inspecting it.

Did he cut it or something?

[jazzdelmar]

I do, too. A lot. But neither is a top 5 starter.

I like his game too, how he fits with this group
