Gillespie push-offs

[8893]

Gus Johnson: “Gillespie always pushes off with that arm and never gets called.”

Unreal. Credit to him for those backbreaker threes but the dude got away with more push-offs than James Harden on his best night.

 

[HeGotGame]

I strongly dislike him

 

[DayDayTFS]

6 fouls from this alone in the 1H... but the refs had no impact right guys 🤨

 

[SteelCT]

This was infuriating...as was the fact that he was out there bleeding all over everyone. Dont they have a rule against that? I may have attended too many blood born pathogen seminars.

 

[HuskyBoi]

Again, flashbacks to Gillespie stiff arming and shouldering Gilbert last year and getting no calls. Maybe that's why today our defenders didn't want to bump him back too much because they were getting called for so many nickel and dimers.

again, you arent going to win games by not scoring points. Yeah the refs were trash but the offense look absolutely terrible in the second half. Beyond Bouknight not hitting anything, we had no one step up.

Gillespie should of fouled out. Stiff arms , push offs. Actual straight arm push to Cole. Blatant., in the clear. A blind person could of seen those.

Great observation. Kind of hard when there’s no flow and half the team is on the bench

 

[Kenny11]

He’s very effective and hard to play against (and watch).

I thought Gilbert owned him last year and I know we don’t have an on-ball defender like that with this team. Our guys continued to bite on that pump fake.

Like the refs werent causing UConn to shoot 36%. Villanova was pretty cold as well and we couldnt even take advantage of that.

No one is arguing that. We didn’t adjust and our offense did look like crap. But you can’t ignore that role the refs played

Complete nonsense. This was a textbook game from Gillespie for anyone who has watched him and Nova. They just outtoughed, outsmarted, and outbettered us overall. From coaching to the players.

We had no answer and no solid gameplan for him. He killed us and has killed us repeatedly.

Bouk would have benefitted in the second half if he did more posting up to create different looks for himself and the team.

 

[8893]

Complete nonsense.

Tell it to Gus Johnson.

 

[MTBingNinja]

Hated the push-offs by Gillespie, should’ve been fouls. But he was slippery with getting to the rim and knocking down those daggers.

 

[Kitaman]

Not much different than Kemba's car accident reactions. If it works do it to death, fark what people think.

Let's see our adjustments next time we play them.

wish we had hasheem today or someone who could have helped down low.

Carlton should have played. He would have helped against Nova.

What would we have done that Sanogo or Whaley didn't do.

 

[willie99]

He's a slow white guy that can't jump, so they let him play like that

It's only fair

 

[Chin Diesel]

Generally speaking one or two real hard fouls can slow down the shoulder and forearm push offs.

Not John Chaney send in the goons type fouling but legit, hard basketball fouls.

How did he not end up at Duke?

Or one throat punch.

Coach K only pays for 1 and dones now

THIS

I was waiting for someone to flatten him

 

[willie99]

Evidently he can't slap the floor

Plus K doesn't have room for anymore assistant coaches

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

How about backing into the paint for 7-8 seconds every possession?

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

It was also really neat how they let him stay in the game with blood all over his uniform. CDC be damned!

Just like they did to Bouk the whole game.

He would have kept Huskymagic from making his post.

Unbelievable in 2021, someone should be at least written up for that.
