Big East OOC Thread 23/24

The Johnnies go down. Dayton is pretty good. Santos and Holmes can play. 9 minutes for Alleyne

St John's is back to being bad

 

[How Sway?!]

St John's is back to being bad

Dayton and Michigan are good sides, no shame in losing to them.

They did win the NIT last season.

Almost beat lsu today

St John's is back to being bad

They are a work in progress. They will improve as time goes by. The game looks too fast for ledlum. Too slow on defense and got his shot blocked numerous times. Too many selfish players and only one ball. They would be top 5 if 3 balls were in play. Dayton is a tournament team. Well coached and talented

Alleyne 12 minutes 3 points. You think he envisioned being buried on Ricky’s bench?

Not the first to get screwed by Ricky in no time flat

Thank You Providence.

Big BE bounce back night

Watched the providence replay. They are deeper and better than last year. The 2 kids the coach brought are excellent role players. Pierre looks excellent. The 2 stars can have an off night and the team has the plenty of depth to compensate. Should be i range of a 6 seed

That was a fun game to watch (I was rooting for Dayton).

Nate Santos was fantastic. No longer just a catch-and-shoot guy...he was dominant in creating his own offense and a tough big guard.

Similar could be said for Kobe Brea. Was originally just a catch-and-shoot guy for Dayton, but he's tough. Got too chippy at the end, but I love his intensity and that put-back dunk late in the 2nd was sweet.

Honestly, losing Malachi Smith for the year looked like a massive loss, but former Merrimack guard sophomore has fit in nicely as the starter and they seem to share the ball excellently as a team. All of their starters can handle the ball.

Not the first to get screwed by Ricky in no time flat

He overplayed his hand. He is a solid role player at this level. He is too inconsistent offensively for feature role

PC KSU is not pretty.

 

[BGesus4]

PC KSU is not pretty.

PC has a very strong roster but not clear they’re too well coached

 

[BGesus4]

The offense looks like a mess though.

 

[UConNick]

I knew Carter and Hopkins would ensure that team at least kept things relatively competitive, but I’ve been very impressed with the other pieces PC has, too. The question is of course English, but so far, so good. As of now wouldn’t be surprised one bit if they spent some weeks ranked and became the clear no. 4 in the league.

K-State’s no joke. Would be a great win if they hold on.

Tie game 0:33 left. K St ball.

 

[auror]

Kaluma getting stripped on a last shot attempt is hilariously fitting. Dude can't dribble.

 

[BGesus4]

Looked about the same with Pierre in there.

Luckily Kaluma is still a turnover machine. He has gotten so much worse since his freshman year.

 

[TRest]

If they wanted to go to Kaluma for the last shot that’s just insane.

 

[BGesus4]

You’re saying you’re that dependent on Pierre? You lost your 6 point lead before he left the game for good.

 

[GlastonTim]

PC has as good a chance as anyone to win this in OT

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Carter beats his guy off the dribble, the rest of KState’s defense collapses on him, and he takes a crazy layup attempt rather than dump it off. It is baffling how much low percentage hero ball coaches still allow in the age of analytics.

Carter hunts foul calls, making the shot is secondary.
