Freshmen basketball players

[beasleythecard]

It is a pleasure to watch freshmen basketball players get clock and be allowed to work through weaknesses. Fox for UofK is putting on a clinic. He cant play defense, but his offense is the reason UpfK will win the game. Hats off to Fox and his coach for playing to a stregnth instead of succumbing to the other teams stregnth.

I wish Louisville would use its advantage of size in the paint to win games. We would be a championship team if we did.

Bama is going to the NIT.

bama would beat several ACC teams.....
Hope louisville does not face them

 

[KozmasAgain]

Alabama sucks and they pushed sUcK until the very end but yet you praise their efforts. When we lose to Duke who has a legitimate shot at a title you complain about bad play and bad coaching.

 

[KerryRhodes]

1. Yes VJ should play more, however he has to produce when he does.

2. Those freshmen at SuCkS wont win a championship.

3. SuCkS play freshmen because crapiperi runs off players who want to return.
He has no choice.

4. Two of Duke's super freshmen come on the bench and get limited playing time. Duke
fans arent constantly whining and bitc#ing.

5. Youre welcome to join big blew nation. Anytime........

Clemson 67 bama 54 on Dec 18th
They also lost to Valpo.

FAIL.

So by this you think Louisville is going to the NIT?

Bama played desperate.

would be a huge surprise if Bama is not in the dance..........
the thread is about freshmen playing through mistakes and how I wish our bigs were allowed to play and use our stregnth and advantages.

not the same team they were at the begining of the season so dig in your milk crate for more stats zippy

Tatum starts and is amazing..... nice watching players play and not sit like a rock for no reason

 

[beasleythecard]

minutes played freshman year
DM
519
VJ
427

hopefully VJ gets a lot more clock next season. Hope he works on his weaknesses this offseason, and is ready for the start of 2017-2018

 

[KozmasAgain]

Clemson isn't the same team either after going through the ACC schedule they have also improved. I was not impressed with Alabama they only have 2 really good players the rest of the team is very average. It amazes me how you defend a sUcK victory against a very mediocre team. However when it comes to Louisville winning a close game against a ranked team you always criticize.

 

[ShortCreek]

VJ CANNOT CURRENTLY GUARD ANYONE.

 

[earsky]

It is the game within the game.The game is run by guards.Tbs,it's up to those guards to figure out what gets the job done.Siva is not here anymore.Somebody else figure it out.

We were a better team with q on the bench.

Q is the reason the Cards beat sucks this year.

Dont let the fact that the best ball played was when he was out be lost on you. Do we need him? Yes, but he wouldnt start for me. He would get 20-25 minutes a game off of the bench.

Fact is VJ can't play and doesn't deserve more minutes.

Exchange vj king with jason tatum and king is having a monster year and tatum is on our bench for no reason playing behind a sub par player simply because the coach doesnt want him to turn pro.

 

[BPGhost]

Yes, but he wouldnt start for me. He would get 20-25 minutes a game off of the bench.

So, he's not good enough to start for you but, you'd give him 65% of the minutes? That makes about as much sense as the rest of what you say.

I would start dm because the team played better with him at point and spell dm with q so yes call me all the insults you wish. We would win.

The only reason why we dont win is FT shooting and FG%.

Just because you put Mitchell at the point doesn't mean Mitchell, Q, and Adel are going to go from shooting 4-19 behind the arc to 10-19

Or Mahmoud/Mangok/Johnson/Spalding will hit a layup

Free throws? Lol

As i said earlier in the season, over playing players will lead to dead legs.
Thank slick and his bizzar rotation for the missed free throws.

This guy was just half insane before he put himself in timeout...

alabama is a different team in the second half of the season. if you watched them, you would know that.

THIS is one of the dumbest things I have ever read on a message board. Which is saying something.

Jason Tatum is LIGHT YEARS ahead of V J King. Offensively AND defensively.

V J will become a good to great player for us. But saying he's the equal of Jason Tatum, is ridiculous.

I dis agree. We actually know nothing about VJ as he does not play, but walkons do.

Put Matz on the perdue team and he performs like their big, put VJ on duke and he is a lottery pick. I stand by that belief.

I absolutely hope the incoming gfreshmen are as good as pitino says they are, and I hope we actually get to see them play.

 

[rockycard]

Good grief man, go pull for the D league team down the road, you are really sounding pathetic.

I love Matz, but that is a HUGE reach.

And if V J could pass, play help d, and run the court like Jason Tatum, we wouldn't be seeing much of Deng Adel at all.

With all due respect, you're losing your mind over the envy that we don't get freshmen good enough to play from day one, while other programs do. You are ruining a very good run of basketball we have been on over this. You need to let it go, and just enjoy your team. We're pretty freakin' good man.

 

[KerryRhodes]

Coach K at Duke is a fraud !

How dare he play Jefferson over Giles.
Giles is a current lottery pick while Jefferson is nowhere near a 2017 draft.

Coach K is playing mind games with freshmen. No 5 star will ever come there after this travesty............

 

[nccardfan]

Assist to turnover ratio:

Snider - 2.74
DM - 1.5
Ryan McMahon - 1.7
Hicks - 0.9

End of story who should be the PG...

 

[beasleythecard]

You need to let it go, and just enjoy your team. We're pretty freakin' good man.

you are partially correct. I need to let it go because no matter how well we play with certain players on the bench, rick is going to play his favorite players. It is his team, I am just a paying fan that will have to wait til next year AGAIN. I am tired of the wait til next year mentality that has permiated this school for the last 15 seasons.

 

[beasleythecard]

Good grief man, go pull for the D league team down the road, you are really sounding pathetic.

I have been a louisville fan for over 40 years and will be happy when we stop being a mediocre, wait til next season bunch of arrogant coach followers.

slick has been paid close to 100 million dollars and I expect a better product on the court.

I understand that fans like you accept anything he craps out, but I expect better from the university of louisville.

How many teams have been better than us over the past ten years? You can count them on one hand. I make fun of the delusional Kentucky fans that post like you have been.

Answer my question though

Answer my question though

I am frustrated that we have an inside advantage over every team we play but refuse to use that advantage.
Really hope the week of unlimited practice benefits us and we display the type of offense and defense we are capable of.
I want our Cards to perform at an optimum level and be ready for bad calls and outplay any and all situations presented to us.

I want us to win a championchip.

I want to spend my money following this team..........


I want to see effort and execution.

I want to see hall of fame Pitino, not the schmuck thats been coaching these last few games.

I want to see Cardinal exellence...

so to answer your question @rockycard not many teams have been better numbers wise, maybe gonzaga?

I want a championship........... we have every piece to do it THIS SEASON

Dayum. 2013 is lost on you.

You sir, are the most unhappy person I have met in a while.

And beyond hope. Enjoy being miserable. I am putting you on ignore, with the other delusional posters, most of whom are Cayuts fans ....

One skill I'll credit beas with...

He has the unique ability to get you to criticize your own players. If there was a demand for that, he'd be a millionaire instead of what he probably is.
