Exactly. Another board Mensa member, maybe the leader of the pack. A real genius.

I should. Maybe I'll head to Storrs this week and when I see him on campus I'll yell "Hey Amida, do you realize you suck at basketball, maybe stop acting like a total d*ckhead on the court and show a little class." Then I'll ride off in my stolen car!

Mau, I think we all agree 100% he's a terrible offensive player. Unless he's getting lobs he does nothing on that side. So then the debate is his defensive play. I land on the side that's a poor defensive player. We know he doesn't rebound, but his going for blocks on every possession leads...

His character? Not quite. I think he's cocky and for a player who is lousy there is really nothing more embarrassing.

Fair point. His cocky persona on the court is insufferable for a guy who by all stats and skills borderline stinks.

Ignorance? Not sure I follow on this topic. I am a fan, but I am objective first. The 4-5s are the worst I can remember. Last night for example the 4-5s contributed 10pts and 8 rebounds. That is terrible, just puts so much strain on the 1-3 to make every play, force bad shots, work hard on...

To call him a really good defender is laughable. He plays in a lousy league with mostly bad teams to start. He doesn't understand anything about basketball, positioning, hedging, etc.. He goes for blocks on 100% of possessions. Yes, if you are 7 feet, go for blocks on 30+ defensive possessions...

Sure. Maybe Brimah is posting about the Duke loss after his big game against them. He should post his Coppin St stat line on the Duke thread, and then who's boss. NBA Draft.net doesn't even have him going in 2016, they know he blows.

Beyond stupid post. UConn scores 57 and edges by a terrible Cincy team and people knock Duke, still a #1 seed. Wow. Brimah was great again, 3 rebounds, 6 pts on lobs. So tired of his antics. Someone needs to tell him to his his face he sucks.

Haha, so you can post to the Boneyard but can't access the ESPN app or site? Another future Boneyard Mensa member. A growing group.

DukieV just tweeted how much of a joke the attendance was more of a statement of the crappy conference and people's disdain for Warde's failures

You said there were only 2 genius, I listed 4

What do you consider Northeast? Are Providence and SJU NE, but Nova and Seton Hall aren't?

I wonder if they held the SEC tourney @ UK or the ACC @ UNC if they could draw 5500 at least

Awesome. I put Brimah on ignore, his cockiness is insufferable. Hey Brimah you aren't good, stop taunting 6-6 guys.

That Brimah defensive play at the 14 minute mark was classic, try and block a 12 ft jump shot you have no chance of getting to, leave player wide open on weak side for an easy tap in. He is a terrible defender, he has no idea when and what to do. He lunges at every shot and gets a few because...

Funny stuff, if we could be honest with ourselves and admit the program is imploding we would realize defending Brimah's skills is almost comical. I'd defense his heart and effort anywhere, anytime.

I agree, he loves basketball and plays his heart out. He is still developing and will continue to.

Fair point, but the reality is does some agent try and get to him or his family and use this + the Coppin St game to try and convince him he can play at the next level now? I hope not. I guess I'm suprised anyone really thinks he is a good, and I mean a complete, defender right now, I think he...

He is a terrible defender and worse rebounder. He goes for 10+ blocks a game and gets a few and so have a reputation for being an imposing defender. I don't think Jahil Okafor is too concerned or the UK front court, but in a crap conference like the AAC those don't matter.

Seems like a long shot that we can beat out Southern Miss or South Alabama for him

Whereas UK can recruit 2-3 of everything and no kid gets scared off, and their competition isn't exactly T Sam, Facey or Sam Jr.

In all seriousness not really, none of those teams are even lock tourney teams. Texas, Temple bubble at most

This thread is insulting, nothing to do with me, the incessant bashing of Phil. The whole compliment of 4-5s is terrible, why single out Phil is my basic point. Brimah has the most potential of the group, we all acknowledge that, but he's got so many weaknesses, many more than his strengths.

I get that and have acknowledged that multiple times. I don't know how that one play means we can't discuss his current play and performance. His game has to improve miles for him to be remotely effective in the NBA. His defense is awful, he can't rebound against AAC opponents, he has no post...

You mean last year's FF when he played like a total of 22 minutes? He's just not good. He's very cocky on the court when he makes any sort of play, which is rare unless he is playing RPI teams > 100 and weak front courts. It's borderline insulting, and does he realize just how silly it is and...

2 hugely misleading statistics. 95% of his shot attempts are dunks. He goes for blocks on virtually every defensive play, he gets a few and his poor defensive positioning costs much more then any of his blocks which almost always results in sets for the offensive team. Compared to the others...

I don't think any coach could be successful having to play some combination of Facey, Brimah and Nolan for 60-70 minutes a game

If my aunt had a.....

Brimah had the big play against St Joe's and T Sam had some good minutes in the tourney, but we're seeing the reality of their actual talent. But he's not the issue, the issue is the 4-5s. 3 of them are terrible and 1 (Lubin) we have no idea on yet, but how often do guys ranked > 250 become...

Facey is awful. Maybe he's improved, who knows, he wouldn't play 3 mins a game on any top 25 teams. It's just a frustrating time watching this program deteriorate faster than we suspected due to this conference BS, which seems to be a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Unless Brimah comes back a monster and we aren't stuck playing T Sam and Facey extended minutes the team could even be worse.

I don't disparage anyone, I point out the obvious, usually earlier than most. I was highlighting how bad Facey was early in the season and now it's universal belief. I can't stand Brimah, mainly because I honestly think he thinks a good basketball player and relevant. He's neither.

What is your point or assertion? Why not show the avg for Brimah against RPIs < 100 or 50? Post his stat line from Duke or last year's FF. Or post any of Facey's last 10 games. #Faceyisterrible

Why single him out? what about Facey? Do you actually think Facey is remotely good? He's not
