Temple Box Score Observations and view from Section 220

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Agree with all of the above, just add one point. CV may be a decent on the run leaper but in competition he’s a great two footed vertical leaper. Often he just out-jumps someone else in the crowd. He also gets the ball with two hands.

He’s really improved his jumping since he arrived here. I feel like he couldn’t even dunk his freshman year now he throws down with authority.

CV makes about four truly cringe worthy plays a game. At least twice a game he will jack up a three beyond NBA range early in the clock. Twice a game he will do the rushed Kamakazi drive to the basket flipping up a shot that has little chance of succeeding. These shots often occur during winning time and almost always lead to an easy score by the other team. Most of the reason for these shots is his poor handle: he has a hard time creating his own shot. The main reason is that for large parts of his career some to his teammates lacked an aggressive offensive attitude. CV was never lacking basketball cojones, his best trait. In the end that is what he will be remembered for.

And he is our most productive player.

Its amazing the space and energy you waste putting down a great kid, our current best player, one of ours, and a husky that stayed when it got rough, and others were jumping ship You are just clueless, I'm sorry, you are.
In AAC CV ranks:
#11 in points
# 9 in rebounds (#4 guard)
# 1 steals
#17 in assists per game
#40 in 3 pt shooting %, not good i admit
#1 in free throw %
#5 in free throws made

I'm sure if we looked, very few of the SAME players would be on all these lists. I don't even care. I sit behind the bench every game and i know beyond the stats, what Christian brings every single game to our team. I'm done arguing with you. I'll take CV!

Don't kid yourself, JC would have loved CV and CV would have been even better than his is.

I wasn't very impressed by Aaron McKee as a coach. Given UConn's lack of depth with only 2 scholarship players on the bench he should have uptempoed the game and used his 9 or 10 guys to absolutely wear us out so we would have been gassed down the stretch. His coaching and game plan did nothing to exploit our weakness in terms of a very short bench.

I don't miss Fran Dunphy and his well coached teams when we played them. You could count on them to give a real solid game. He really got the best out of his teams. Class act.

I apologize for having a negative viewpoint on a guard who has won 27 of his 67 career mid major conference games and who as a senior currently has the worst effective field goal % of any serious contributor on any team in said mid major conference (37th of 37), despite taking the 6th most total shots.

He's a fun kid to root for. I wish he made more of the many shots he takes. Still could happen. I'd be overjoyed.

The only one who has provided real stats for CV is auror, everyone else is fanboying and throwing fits.

We all like CV and how hard he plays but the constant making him out to be something he's not by fans gets to be annoying.

Husky1 with an incredibly lame Adam Schiff comment. Not a good look.

 

[Husky1]

Oh really super john, by the way what does the super mean?
anyway, the stats I posted were from the AAC website today, and they were real - what makes them not real
because you don't like them?
What does fanboying even mean?
and your opinion doesn't really count because YOU'RE the most consistent CV hater on this site, so no you you don't really like CV like you say
Your really annoying Super John, and the schiff comment was kind of funny, even auror thought so.
Actually I'm not really making him something he's not, I just loathe haters, and he IS our best player
even if you're not capable of seeing it.

This is sad. Auror was making fun of you.
