Same Starting lineup - what a joke

[SaeHusky]

According to courant - going with Drummond and Olander again tomorrow in starting lineup. Scoe an AO deserve to start.

Of course they do because they've been so good. They key is they can both tear up the Cuse zone with their solid shooting and passing skills!! Great call there....screw Blaney and JC throw SAE on the sideline!! LOL

what did i say already blaney is a complete buffoon and doesn't know how to make changes. However, Drummond needs to start at all times as we need his size and athleticism on the court. We can't play Roscoe as a power forward because he is undersized and underweight. Roscoe needs to start at the 3, and he can help Drummond and Alex on the boards. We need Scoe to guard the opposing team best perimeter player which in this case would be Kris Josephs who I believe Scoe will shut down tomorrow. Uneash the Scoe, Unleash the Alex, Unleash the Boat

Dude have u seen Drummonds jump shot? AO at least has a post game. Roscoe way better than Tyler Defensively. You then flash Lamb to the foul line since he has been struggling from the arc keeping Roscoe out on the wing. Maconnfan I gurantee Smith has a better game than Tyler tomorrow.

SAE Andre hasn't played well at all I agree but a lot better than AO who disappears on both ens and it's not close......Did you see GTown vs the Cuse? Constant passing and reversal of the ball....have you seen AO or Roscoe pass the ball for 2 years? They're both awful.....want a chance to win, they both need to be part of the win but they cannot be in the game at the same time vs the zone, unless for some crazy reason Roscoe finds his shot!!!

 

[SaeHusky]

Roscoes stroke has been alot better lately - I agree AO isnt a great passer but at least he can score in the post and has experience against this zone. Drummond has looked like a kid lost in the mall against zone defense this year. Jeremy not roscoe needs to flash the middle of the zone.

You can book it because it is already written in stone that Roscoe will be better than Olander tomorrow. Alex, Drummond, and Roscoe all should start. Alex is our best post player and has a good form on the jumper and definitely should start, but we need Drummond's size and athleticism. We dont want Alex to have to defend 6'11 7 footers like Fab Melo all game long which will make him pick up easy fouls and tire him. Roscoe needs to play the 3 and guard the opposing teams best perimeter payer which happens to also be a small forward in Kris Josephs. We need Scoe to shut down the opposing teams best perimeter player and rash the boards similar to what he did last year.

It's Kris Joseph*

We don't have a "best" post player because they are all awful at this point. Andre is by the far the better choice vs the Cuse because he can pass and offers the Cuse many worries roaming the baseline and popping to the post. Alex can't score over 6'5" guys nevermind Melo...he is not much of an option today unless he makes some fouline jumpers..........can you imagine where that ugly little lefthanded throw will go if he offers it up to Fab??? Can you say 20th row?

Come on. The last two games he's averaged 29 mpg, 10.5 ppg (on 8-15 shooting), and 7.5 rpg. Those are good numbers.

Nobody deserves to start the way this team has been playing.

"Blaney is a complete buffoon."

These are the type of comments that make the Boneyard like a horrible ex-girlfriend.

Alex is the only big man we have who has post moves, and that why i said he is our best post player. You know you agree with me but its bothering you to admit I am right. I said already that Roscoe, Alex, and Andre need to all start as we need all 3 of them along with Boat and Lamb to play 30 minutes minimum a game in order to be playing at our potential. Small lineups with mediocre talents like Napier and Olander will never work against good teams like Syracuse who is playing with a traditional NBA size athletes and players at every position. Look at things rationally and stop making excuses and justifications for certain players. We need to play with the most talented, most hungry, and most physically talented players at all times and we know who those guys are already.

 

[jorge34]

I am not sure I see the relevance in arguing about who starts. I will be more concerned with who ends up with the majority of minutes played....

 

[Fishy]

I've noticed that the most tiring, most persistent, most annoying posters tend to be the most long-winded.

Just an observation.

 

[hasheemthedream]

Roscoe is the perfect guy to put on the free throw line against the zone, he gets my vote to start.

One thing for sure is Shabazz needs to be kept on the bench this kid is a cancer to the team. Last year he was our best defender he cant even play any D this year. He is something like 4-26 shooting in the last 4 games. Let him sit on the pine for a few games maybe he can find something there.

Try out the freshman guard Allen or something, look at the NY Knicks with Lin, you can't keep beating a broken drum (Shabazz). It's worth a shot we got nothing to lose but another game.

 

[HuskyFan32]

In all honesty they've all played horrible lately besides boat obviously and Alex to some extent. So you can complain that whoever is starting has sucked lately because they all have. Although I'd like to see giffey get more than three min today

 

[sledog]

Get the ice packs out. Gonna get our asses kicked - again.

 

[Danzz]

Of course they do because they've been so good. They key is they can both tear up the Cuse zone with their solid shooting and passing skills!! Great call there....screw Blaney and JC throw SAE on the sideline!! LOL

We will get killed on the boards without AO in the lineup and we won't be winning a high scoring game anyway. Drummond helps way too much and opponents end up geting weakside rebounds and putbacks. We need to pass the ball quicker on the outside. If we play tenatively, the game will be over in the first 10 minutes. Lamb should be able to get fouline jumpers all day. We'll see if they can execute. Don't know why, but I have a good feeling about this game.

The problem with Giffey in the game is that they don't pass to him when he is open. Watch him closely when he is in and you will see what I mean.

Yea, but they are not passing effectively.....to anyone

Last second change--AO instead of TO

Oh I know exactly what you're saying. Boat will give him the ball tho
