    This, and I think it's even moreso the fact that that's the most fired up he's been all season. Not for terrible calls, not for Bryant whining all the time, not for Blackmon losing his man every other possession, but for Devonte trying to get a guy who never plays a dunk. L O freaking L.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    Honestly today made me want him gone more than ever. Terrible sub patterns, Newkirk still getting the lions share of what should be Green's minutes, leaving the starters in until the 1 minute mark and then berating Green for trying to make a play at the end. I'm absolutely fed up with this "leadership" we have running our program. It's a joke.

    Another great point.

    Respect..I'm sorry but that's bs. Weren't we all taught to play until the final whistle? If you don't wanna get scored on at the end of the game then play defense and don't turn the ball over. Doesn't matter if you're up 20 or down 20.

    So? Why are our starters in with 1 minute to go in the game..to stall?

    I have 0 problem with what Green did. It's no different then trying to get a shot for a walk-on who never plays. Crean will drive someone to transfer doing what he just did.

    Screw Crean for berating Green like that. He was just trying to get Freddie a bucket cuz he doesn't play.

    It's how our coach operates so I'm not surprised

    James can't defend average college players. What makes you think he'll do any better against the best offensive players in the world? You can't be serious right now.
  10. My guess is that's where he ends up

    Watch Blackmon specifically. Happens far too often with him. And the assertion that he is better at D than anyone currently in the NBA is laughable

    You should watch Rutgers last offensive play. Blackmon lost his guy who was wide open under the basket. He's bad at D and always will be. Too lackadaisical

    Green Blackmon Rojo OG Davis This needs to be our starting lineup with Morgan, Bryant, and Jones off the bench. Nobody else should see a minute.

    Green needs all of Newkirk's minutes. Show us you can actually see what's happening on the court Crean and not refer to practice as the reason for someone starting.

    At this point I don't know why he isn't get most of Bryant's minutes. He's smarter and just has a better feel for the game. It's glaringly obvious

    The players look like they've given up. If this is the game that makes a change, then I'm all for it. This is just sad basketball

    Why anyone would want to draft Thomas is beyond me. He's just bad this year, no way else to say it
  18. VO5

    Who is our best player?

    This. He's our most consistent player on both ends of the court. You can count on him every night to produce about 10-18 points and play good defense, which is better than I can say for anyone else on the team currently

    If he didn't have bricks for hands I would agree lol
  20. Our team lacks IQ because we don't have a PG. And guess what, we don't have one coming in next year either. Blackmon is a good player but has 0 basketball IQ. He's just wired to score and does it pretty well most of the time. Everything else he does is average to bad. Our players aren't put into positions to succeed. Why OG doesn't live on the baseline and in the middle of the court is beyond me. Why McSwain continues to get important minutes is baffling. The worst part? The Big Ten isn't even strong this year. If the same leadership is here next year it is going to get ugly.
  21. I hate it for the players but I'm starting to accept this season for exactly that. Weird feeling
  22. That's why I said arguably
  23. Offensively? No question. But arguably plays the worst D. If we're talking all around player, it's gotta be Rojo.
  24. Blackmon completely left the play and ran to the other side of the court..wut
