I'm not going to get into a back and forth about someone's character based on one comment from a coach whose comments don't align with his actions, but might as well share the play in question.

Starts at 4:33

 

 

How frigging incredibly stupid is that... and it happened multiple times? And Capel allowed it? Geez

I’ll take a hot head kid over a team full of kids who don’t care enough to get T’d up like we had for most of last year. Did we ever have a player get a technical under Archie? 

Hunter did against Iowa two years ago

[cleeter]

I would give a standing ovation if one of our players got a technical for chirping at the other team’s bench next year. IU basketball needs a total culture change. Our players are too nice. They’re too polite. We need some dogs who aren’t afraid to taunt a little bit and talk their talk.   

Is it bad if when reading this “we need some dogs”, my brain immediately went to this video.....

Best press conference ever

Maybe it's different in college, but this whole discussion sent me to YouTube to watch Reggie Miller give Spike Lee the choke sign in '94. Also, Indiana's favorite son Larry Bird was a world-class trash talker. He would hit a shot and mouth off to the other team's coach.

He get many techs doing so?

Just saw this. Wheeler saw the writing on the wall. He was touted as being the future of Purdue but never progressed the way they hoped.

I had no information on Justin Smith to tell whether he was a cancer or not. He wasn't a 3 though, that's the only issue I had in regards to him. 

As far as the rest.. I guess. I have seen about 40000 AAU games in my life. Coached about as many games... certainly understand how basketball and trash talk works. If you can't see the different in trash talk/yadda yadda and getting T'ed up because you can't keep your mouth shut long enough as you get back on defense to not hurt your team? Idk what to tell you. 

This really isn't that deep for me. Using LeBron and Curry as examples are flat out silly though. 

You think it’s silly because they disprove your take that “taunting is for the weak.” Hell, Tom Brady is the best quarterback of all-time and he’s notorious for taunting and talking trash. I’ll take their opinion over yours, despite the “40000 AAU games” you’ve watched. You’re calling a kid a cancer because he got a technical foul and then his coach commented on it. If his coach really cared then he would’ve benched him. But he didn’t.

So is it about the behavior or how the referee interprets the behavior? You're not even arguing in good faith at this point.

Come again? If the official has to T you up for mouthing off... it's a problem. I've mentioned scenarios where I have ZERO problem if one of my players were to get a T. This video... that is the video of a punk. The like the exact OPPOSITE of what we want here. We want the guys that were getting in his head to begin with.

In the 80's and 90's, NBA refs didn't T guys up for saying things. If they did, Bird and Jordan would have never finished a game. BTW, I not really arguing that what he did was OK. It was especially bad because with no fans in the arena everybody could hear every word.

[Hoosierfan222]

There’s no doubt about it, getting a tech hurts the team. 
 

that being said shooting 20% from three hurts the team and that’s our current starting point guard. I’ll take a rare technical foul over that all day, not even sure why that’s a discussion.

if talking trash makes him a punk then how on earth did you ever watch 90’s basketball?

I understand that about officials and it's a good point. Bird and Jordan would have never allowed their actions to effect their team in a negative way though. And certainly not on any sort of consistent basis.

“Which one of your guys is getting second place today?” 
 

Nope, can’t have him. He talks too much trash!

Notable names: Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Larry Bird. Someone better let them know that they’re cancers and couldn’t play on the IU basketball team.

He shot a worse % from 3 every season he's been in college. He shot a worse % from 3 than what our entire team average was....

Sooooo any transfer news?

Exactly. The days of being passive and “classy” are over. At this point, I just want guys with fire who want to actually win and the way I see it, this kid is nowhere near a Bill Laimbeer type of punk so I’m completely fine here!

Kid shot 78 threes and hit just over 32% of them.

Our starting point guard shot 96 threes and hit 26% of them....

We’re comparing him to the team average why? Kid is a point guard, compare him to our point guard.

Wow. Incredible how you haven't really read any response I've given you, yet... if this is still what you're spouting off about.

Please... kids a basketball player... and a solid one, no doubt. A shooter, he is not. Not even close.
