Gillespie with a nasty knee injury

[Edward Sargent]

He’s not BE POTY good. Period. End of Story. Name one other player in CBB or in the BE for that matter that gets away with it at the rate he does. Nobody. He’s ok, he a high division 1 basketball player. I’m not saying he’s garbage. But the way he’s talked about...I just don’t see it. Never have. And bitter that someone is good at basketball? lmaoo. Why don’t I feel that way about zegarowski, or mamu, or any of the other great BE players that are better than Gillespie?

Why can’t it just be that I don’t think he’s that good? He’s a system player, who to his praise takes advantage of the favorable calls. Y’all can be Gillespie fans, have at it. I’m just not

I put Zeharowsi a d Mamu in the same overrated designation and they are not great

Doesn’t take a detective to figure out which coach used the word “brutal” in a text message to Jeff ... lol View attachment 65246

Does it strike anyone else as weird that a coach would say that to a reporter?

 

[Giddyup5]

No, the MCL has a good blood supply so it heals faster.

Not 100% accurate.

Really depends on where the MCL is torn. Is it off the tibia? Femur? Stener lesion?

 

[3rdbass]

With this injury we can definitely need to win the Tourney and then win 6 games and hoist our 5th NCAA Championship. GO UCONN!

Are the refs the reason Gillespie has a 3:1 assist to turnover ratio and shoots 38% from 3 on 5.5 attempts/game?? I don't trust the basketball eyes of posters that can't see his talent. Dude is a gamer. I despise him, but that's the truth.

Dude’s a bully/crybaby. Could care less if he’s injured, other than I wish he was on he court so we can get shut him down next time around. Put him on an average team and he’s average throwing up threes and racking up offensive fouls.

 

[NJHusky]

Wonder if he can play with a brace since they provide a lot more support for an mcl than an acl?

During the UT-OU game, ESPN reported Gillespie's finished for this season. Return next year to welcome incoming younger brother?

You don’t know basketball.

I was communicating at the level of the audience.

That’s the one with orange ball, right?

 

[Mr. French]

Ok boys, maybe you aren't pals but "How about a Fresca?"

Ha I actually like @AntG168 and often agree with him - and I DO like Gillespie but I don't love him, I just think Ant is way off and letting his Husky-blue glasses color his decision.

I respect/like you as a poster as well. Nothing wrong with a little difference of opinion. At the end of the day we both want to beat him lol

 

[August_West]

So what, Kemba and Bazz drew calls all the time jerking their heads back. You play with what you got and what the refs will let you get away with. Gillespie is a really good college point guard.

[mauconnfan]

Some of the takes on what is no doubt a very good college basketball player are mind boggling. Get the Husky fandom out of the way and admit he'd be more than welcome to play on our team anytime.

Not upset for Nova or Wright we've all had to endure tough times in March at some point, but just hurt for the kid as he's pure his heart out for that program for almost 4 years to end it at this time is so tough. Hope he battles back and makes basketball a career somehow, not sure where. Probably will end up being just what he is on the floor expect on the bench someday later, a good coach!

 

[ClifSpliffy]

hey! look what i just found on that pirate forum someone linked to.
post game:

'Also I noticed UConn had huskie covers over the SHU logo on their seats.
Now that's an alpha mentality.'
yeppers.

get...............out...............of............our...........way, or, we'll just chew ur legs off.
(ur problems, nova/creighton, have nothing to do with our agenda now, which is simply to win the whole dang thing.)

 

[dennismenace]

You never want to see that. He was an annoying little sh.. when we played them but this stuff sickens me. Hate to see a kid go down. Hope its not serious.

Amen to that. Very worthy opponent. He's a real gamer who never gives up. I hope it isn't serious enough to keep him out of the tournament. To me he is on my all time Big East pains in the a$%'s like Troutman, Krauser, Dudley and Diefendorf to name a few.

 

[dennismenace]

Maybe distracted by their coach's recent comments.

Link?

Yep. There's no there there without a worthy opponent.

Marat is talking about Creighton.

 

[dennismenace]

I wouldn't be shocked if he returns next year, so we will be dealing with him again.

 

[Austin316]

Justin Moore might be out (ankle) for Nova. He was Gillespie’s back up and a VERY important piece for Nova (14ppg). They are getting killed by Providence right now.

 

[Vuce]

PC up 17 on Nova at half. Not sure what Moore’s status will be.

 

[Edward Sargent]

Friars doing there best to keep Nova in the game. They take such crappy shots

 

[Rico444]

Moore in a boot on the sidelines. Have to figure Nova isn't the BET favorite anymore

 

[Vuce]

Under 8 min left Nova with 38 pts

 

[Edward Sargent]

Friars didn't deserve that win
