Good to have you backNm

First was a bad call. He was vertical and contact occurred after the shot was releasedClingan's fouls weren't the refs fault. The second foul was him being a complete bozo and the third was unnecessary.
Hey, I like Cam a lot. It’s not a shot at him at alI. Sorry if it comes off that way. I think he’s an amazing offensive player. Possibly the best of the Hurley era when looking at all around skill sets.He didn't say he was better, he just said we haven't had a player quite like him and it's not completely off the mark with how clean and efficient he plays. Now some of that is obviously due to the offensive talent around him, Kemba and Shabazz had to do more and carry a bigger load so that's gonna lead to lower shooting numbers and more TOs, but Cam is definitely one of more well rounded guards we've seen here offensively.
Disagree. We played pretty well despite the foul trouble. St. John's is very good right now and they made tough shots when we threw several haymakers at them.That game sucked. Probably our 2nd or 3rd worst effort of the year. Got lulled into a track meet and decided that playing defense was optional. I’m guessing that DH will take full advantage and go nuts over this “effort”.
People here try too hard to come off unbiased, but there’s a reason why Clingan gets through some games with no foul trouble, and sometimes doesn’t, and it’s usually not because he changed how physical he played. He’s reffed differently game to game, it’s gotta be frustrating for him.I know I'm a homer but it seems like Clingan can do nothing right with the refs. Sometimes he just makes mistakes but other times it's like they call fouls on him that others don't get. I think the bad calls have made him somewhat snake bitten where he becomes hesitant. He often doesn't look confident and that is understandable but unfortunate. He's got a lot of heart and talent. I think he needs another year unless his potential just makes him a lottery pick. We shall see.
I do think this was not the most polished game we've played but to me it was a very big win over nemesis Pitino in MSG. Very proud of the way they kept the lead over the last 12 minutes. It's that unselfish thing again and Tristan and Cam are a great tandem at guard. I'm really happy they showed up big on offense down the stretch under the MSG lights. Think this will help us going forward.
I don't remember who the poster was but whoever said "look, we're playing three point guards, a point forward and a big who is a very good passer" nailed it. Hats off to the team and staff.
In the huddle after Hurley basically confirmed it wasn’t a foul when Alex was explaining.Well it wasn't a foul on AK, Jenkins jumped damn near sideways, wasn't a natural shooting motion at all
Stop being obtuse. CS is shooting 50/44/90 with a 3-1 assist to turnover rate. He’s been one of the most efficient UConn players ever and his having a crazy year. Why can’t you just stfu and enjoy his seasonHey, I like Cam a lot. It’s not a shot at him at alI. Sorry if it comes off that way. I think he’s an amazing offensive player.

Just think it’s bizarre to see him in best ever talks seeing the legends that have been here. But now probably isn’t the time to say anything so sorry about that.
That was a tough team playing as good as a top 20 team. A 10 seed playing like a 4 or 5.That wasn’t fun at all. We slept walk through that game and it almost cost us. Do that in two weeks and we are licking our wounds after a loss in the Sweet 16
I don't know how to respond to his comment so I won't. Who even thinks like that?You say some weird stuff. Chalk it up to youth I guess.
I wouldn't call it a 95-90.The score was 95-89. I wouldn't call it a grind it out type game.
I've been convinced for a long time that the B1G issued a directive to protect Edey from foul calls. I cam live with that as I see it as a contributing factor in Purdue's tournament performances.People here try too hard to come off unbiased, but there’s a reason why Clingan gets through some games with no foul trouble, and sometimes doesn’t, and it’s usually not because he changed how physical he played.

Fwiw Edey practically decapitates opponents every time I watch Purdue and refs seem to ignore it. He would never get some of these soft whistles Clingan gets.
Again...reading comprehension.Hey, I like Cam a lot. It’s not a shot at him at alI. Sorry if it comes off that way. I think he’s an amazing offensive player. Possibly the best of the Hurley era when looking at all around skill sets.

He says...Yep and he always makes the right read/extra pass. We've really never had an offensive player like him. Tristen is alongside our handful or so very best players ever if they accomplish their two remaining goals.
Drunk message boarding is the third worst thing you can do when you drink.Hey, I like Cam a lot. It’s not a shot at him at alI. Sorry if it comes off that way. I think he’s an amazing offensive player. Possibly the best of the Hurley era when looking at all around skill sets.

I love what Cam has brought to the team, but Nadav was a much headier player.He may not be the best player. But I think Cam is the best one year impact player this program has ever had. Maybe Nadav. Call it a tie.
So you're suggesting there should be an ad where DH, Kimani and Luke all do their best Cam face?I don't know about Cam best player anything, but he has some serious game faces when he gets in a groove.
