November General CBB Discussion Thread (Non-BE)

I’m never gonna jump on all portal team. They showed some serious talent and gelling this week.

Why does this place take it so offensive if another team is more talented? My gawd the tribal mentality. It’s ok people. Anything can happen in a one game format and the talent gap isn’t that wide.

There’s a difference between “I’m offended” and “What you said is dumb” and you can never seem to figure that out

What’s dumb about it? Easy to call something dumb, but offer me some context to why it’s dumb. I know you love jumping on here and just attacking people with no context, just to be a dick.

Michigan reminds me of us two year’s ago

Purdue front court is very strong with Cluff and 7' 3" Jacobsen off the bench and All American TKR at the 4.
Can't wait until they play Michigan

Here’s the thing - Ive been consistent all year saying we are a top 4 team. It’s ok some of these more unproven teams can come together and look better than our perceived upside based on roster and eye test. I was surprised by what I saw, but that was 3 games and consistent.

You’re not exactly flawless in the tribal direction. Have you ever recognized that most of your takes are all point one way? UConn defensive.

Yes, I'm a UConn fan so I tend to support UConn. I prefer not to hate everyone on our roster

He’s impossible to have a debate with because he’s constantly moving the goal post. First it was there bigger than us. Once that was deemed as not meaning “better” he moved to more talented. When those of us actually went through the roster and refuted that as at best being debatable, now we’re all just being homers and don’t want to give Michigan credit.

Maybe , just maybe UConn has all five starters in preseason award watchlist. UConn beat a top 10 team without their MCDAA. UConn should’ve beaten a top 4 team down their best player and MCDAA. If you removed Mara and Yaxel from Michigan(Reed, Mullins) what would they look like?

@RuffRuff for arguments sake, if you removed Mara and Yaxel from Michigan, what would they look like?

Better or worse than UConn without Reed and Mullins?
