    Just want everyone to know I'm doing my utmost to make sure btb stays up and running tonight but it would be a lot easier if @Hovadipo could see his way to help a little bit.

    Really annoying that I have to do some work today. UConn/Illinois is obviously the headliner but St Mary’s/Vandy is gonna be a really nice game.

    Jury is still out; Miss Valley St is 1-7 with their only win against the D3 team “Mississippi College for Women” (yes; for real- that’s a men’s team). A&M is 5-2 and has not beaten a top 250 team yet.

    For sure — good coaches find ways to adjust. But a guy like Edey could struggle; our bigs do a lot of perimeter screening; planting a big under the basket could create a two v one game on perimeter actions. And Edey on the perimeter and having to drop cover a flashing big is a good situation for this offense.

    That’s all well and good. But the defense gets a say in the matter too. For example, with Edey and a set of not all that athletic guards, Painter would just abandon the mid range to keep his guards contesting the 3’s while Edey tried to stay close to the paint. That’s why even though Woodson was no strategic genius his strengths played well vs Painter and despite having inferior teams Woodys IU squads more than held their own vs Purdue. A good example is a guy like Hood-Schafino who was happy to take all the midrange shots Purdue gave him and feasted both games. If you can consistently out execute your opponents scheme matters less anyways; otherwise sometimes you have to take what the defense gives you. When our execution breaks down we seem to settle for long 3’s which are also inefficient shots because the same math that applies to long 2s apply equally to long 3s.
  14. Could very well be. Could also be that he’s playing with 2 perimeter kids who really, really like to score, though the rebounding numbers may well point to your thought. Will be interested to see Pike play.

    Mgbako returned from his foot injury two days ago vs. Mississippi Valley State. In his first game of the year he played 17 minutes, 19 points on 3/6 from 3, 6/6 FT, 2 rebounds, 1 assist.

    Pete Thamel - Oregon State has agreed to terms on a five-year deal to make Alabama co-offensive coordinator JaMarcus Shephard as the school’s next coach. Shephard is also Alabama’s assistant head coach and wide receiver coach. CBS first reported him as target.

    I’m starting to get Xavier Booker vibes here. How much intensity can he be playing with when he’s putting up those numbers with his five star talent?

    Barry Odom opened his Bucket week press conference quite literally with “Happy Thanksgiving, for those who celebrate it.” You asked “Who the f doesn’t celebrate Thanksgiving?” Puredoo Coach Barry Odom is not sure, and he’s not taking any chances!! :)

    Guess I missed the whole thing. What does making fun of PUke have to do with Thanksgiving?

    Who the f doesn’t celebrate Thanksgiving? Really is a commentary on where this screwed up country is that this kind of observation is made. SMH
