Gilbert

[Shine33]

Is he hurt or just in foul trouble? Hasn’t been in for a while

 

[HuskyHoosier]

2 Fouls for him and Akok

He and Vital have reverted back to their early season ways.

 

[Conquistador]

Vital is hurting us right now!

 

[Mooch82]

It’s very clear that Vital is not a PG. Offense fell apart and he turned it over a bunch when forced into PG duty.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Struggling all half against best team in the country in drawing fouls.

They may be good at drawing fouls, but we’re taking some realllyyy dumb fouls too.

 

[WestHartHusk]

They must have these refs every game. 50% if the calls were compete fiction.

And hideous bounce passes.
Gilbert & Akok on bench has really hurt.

More than 50%. There are touch fouls and then there are 8 of our first 9 fouls. Ridiculous.

Was gonna say. The refs aren’t making it too hard either. One dude more must love the camera

Yeah I would have taken a chance with gaffney at the 1. Think he would have done better than vital at that spot in terms of distribution.
I would have also rather seen Sidney Wilson at the 4 a little more instead of Polley for defensive purposes after Akok went out. Sidney is an underrated shot blocker inside

 

[InKembaITrust]

I don't understand why Gilbert has yet to learn how to consistently use his body and create contact when driving to the hoop. Kemba was and is an all time great at this, and is a key reason why he is so successful in the NBA at his size.

AG needs to watch more Kemba film and learn how to locate the defender, draw contact at the rim, and get his defender either off balance or draw the foul.

 

[mdkhusky]

We can’t defend this play anymore

 

[Caronimo]

Well if Gilbert and Hurley thought the social media hate was bad before, they ain’t seen nothing yet

 

[willie99]

Why why why

 

[uconntoatl]

Same unnecessary long-range 2 point shots time and time again, insanity

Gilbert is being Gilbert again. Turnovers and bad shots. Come on Hurley , call him out on it. Don't let him lose another game for us.

 

[GG]

I am so perplexed by his assistance to dribble into the trees with seemingly no real plan.

 

[ElmCity40th]

Why not more Gaffney? Freshman or not we don’t have a good PG. Stater or backup l

 

[LIuconn]

Gaffney dribbles with his butt leading the ball. Not exactly confidence inspiring for a PG

 

[MarkT]

He and Vital have reverted back to their early season ways.

They just aren’t high D1 players, neither one should be starting. Think we are better off starting either B Adams/Bouknight or Gaffney/Bouknight. Gilbert and Vital seem like great kids, they just aren’t good enough to lead a team in high D1-way too many terrible decisions (that lead to turnovers or take bad shots).

 

[Palatine]

Gilbert always seems to make these crazy threes at the end of the game when we are behind. Be nice if he could do that at other points in the game.

 

[Chin Diesel]

He and Vital have reverted back to their early season ways.

Few things are more irritating than fans of losing teams citing players for "reverting back".

 

[Caronimo]

Ollie Ball. It’s in our bones.
