HoosierAloha Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 1 hour ago, Free Jurkin! said: Timme is a perfect college player. Really good, but his game doesn't translate well to the NBA, and so he stays in college for 3-4 years. UNC used to get a bunch of the McD AAs who were great college players, but middling or not even NBA guys, who stuck around and it was why they were maybe the best program of the last 20 years. Talent + continuity is huge. Trayce was that guy for IU, but unfortunately he was never surrounded with talent to take advantage Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He was surrounded with players who stuck around for 3-4 years because they weren't NBA talent! Completely agree, Nova is similar. I'd take a team full of All-Americas that stuck around for 3-4 years that had enough talent to win a lot in college while not getting drafted high. We've been stuck in the good post or good perimeter players for the last half decade-ish. We'll get there eventually. Let's find our Timme and Co. Quote

Stuhoo Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 Curbelo is an absolute hot mess. Did you guys know he’s averaging 6 turnovers per 40 minutes, and shooting 34% fg and 18% three pt for the season?!? Good lord that’s harsh. And against a fantastic defensive team like Houston? Yikes lillurk 1 Quote
HoosierAloha Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 Wow, quick change by Moore. A few possessions ago he glided and missed badly, that possession he went up strong against Cockburn and finished. Heck of a play. Quote
