Joe Burrow throwback went over a lot of heads lol...
[quote]But how can you run a ball screen offense with a center that... doesn't set good ball screens?? And has no ability to score off the roll? You can't. [/quote] That was kind of my point man. Idk why ppl are worked up over me a throwing Baker a bone that he is a good *shooting* center. I tor...
[quote]This isn't the 1970s. We don't need someone who is a post scorer to be successful.[/quote] That’s why I gave an example of a current player for another conference team. No it’s not 1970, but this killed us in a lot of games — look at MSU. [quote]Baker liked to work out of the post but his...
It’s a post-season thing you have to earn your way to, that’s all. Everyone does that in every sport. Football teams hung divisional banners when we had divisions. shite, rivalry trophies even existing is technically worse than anything. They’re fun, but it’s still one game....

[quote]He’s up there with Dirk and KD[/quote] At LSU then. And if he could handle a ball or move at all & wasn’t playing center instead of shooting forward, he might put up 30 PPG lol. He just can’t handle a ball… or move… or play defense… or rebound …or post up …or dribble …or catch …or pass....
Hannibal was a Tasmanian devil on the court at times this season. And several times did it damn near 40 minutes. Competitors like that make CBB fun....

[quote]The only upside I am holding on to is the fact that MM was 17-14 in his first season at Murray St then 16-17 in his second season then after that had single digit losses in his next 5 years. So in theory next year should be much better, but It seems like something is missing in his teams...
This is fair. I’m gonna let him actually put together the 2025 roster before I blow the horn, considering he was somewhat handicapped in year one. But again, fair. I agree he’s a good floor coach & if he’s gonna have success here he will have to put together a complete roster. If more of his ...

[quote]I didn’t give that reason and I’m the OP. Get your shite straight.[/quote] You’re completely right, I edited & left you out of it. If you want my positive takeaway it’s that this team probably overachieved with one available PG most of the season & no strength inside. I’m sold that McMa...

[quote]Sounds like Hannibal needs to get off his arse and play hard. Complete rework of the roster is needed[/quote] Hannibal is a senior whose brand is playing hard :lol:. It’s painfully obvious how many shitposting after every loss know zilch about the program....
[quote]This team won 2 conference games last year. Was expected to finish almost dead last in the SEC this year. Beat #11 SC on the road and KY at home. Anyone who says this team hasn’t improved is just looking for attention or doesn’t watch. CMM is doing well. Regardless of how this game ends.[/quo...

Yeah actually everyone with any amount of emotional control is happy with 9 conference wins coming from last year lol. If they build on the momentum, that’s what you want. What you don’t want is year-to-year stagnation or regression. How many conference wins in Wade’s last season? JS...

[quote]Four. That’s how many games LSU won after trailing at the half [/quote]. Correct. Is this in support of my point or a gotcha? Honestly I can’t tell lol. That isn’t counting general double-digit comebacks, and to be fair the size of the deficit is more material to the point than halftime...

I love how many times posters this year have done this at halftime of games we wound up winning. Very eager haters....
[quote]Three Stooges Movie[/quote] Seems dramatic for down 7 at half in a roundball game....
[quote]But the last 2 plus weeks have negated that. The whole mystery with Jalen Cook, the almost blown lead to Missouri, the collapse in the second half against Moo State in the SEC tourney and if we lose this game at home to a shitty team from a lesser conference while looking like shite in the pro...
[quote]And LSU is not responding by being physical too.[/quote] We don’t really have physical post players this year. Hannibal has been our toughest player on the court all year long & he’s a PG....
11 pts ain’t nothing this year, streaky squad. Ya never know....
Simple answer is usually the best explanation. Alabama doesn’t have a culture. Sour grapes....
[quote]Lmfaoo Jalen Cook hasn’t played since Feb 13th and you know Mike Williams isn’t really a capable point guard. That’s disingenuous as frick[/quote] Someone actually downvoted this...
