This has to be a joke, right? I’ll assume you missed that cross-court, perfectly placed, one-handed baseball pass to Dre for what was the most important basket (a three) with a few minutes to go vs Villanova. You clearly haven’t a clue.
That was a great pass. But a majority of college basketball players can make a skip pass to a wide open man. I personally don’t see any “better than average” skills in Karaban.
I agree Clingan should have played more too. There is a solid chance Johnson could have helped also. That’s all I’m saying if you don’t agree then okay
Tonight's matchup against Freemantle is an excellent primer to prep them for when they play against other top 4's in the conference like Creighton's Arthur Kaluma (6'7 225) and Marquette's OM Prosper (6'8 230).
Overmatched, from time to time, maybe.
You judged him on 17 minutes??? Seriously, let Danny and the staff worry about how Samson fits in going forward.
5 letters...close to idiom but 1 letter off.
I'm going to guess you're very young and don't understand the game of basketball except just watching the ball go through the net.
UConn has a particular discipline. They give up the shot, in favor of the shooter with the better shot.
Guys inprove from year 1 to year 2. Karaban wasnt even playing last year. Now he is starting. How is it possible that you conflate Samsons year 1 to year 2? He worked hard in the offseason spending the entirety in Storrs improving his game and body. 17 minutes isn't enough to say he is the same as he was the previous year.
im just seriously asking what his above average traits are that make him a starter for the #2 team in the nation. And everybody is just slamming me instead of answering.
Ok, I’ll give you both of those. I think he’s alright. But imo those traits are highly replaceable and inferior to somebody that is better in more impactful areas. Agree to disagree
The biggest defensive liability is the high hedge defense strategy. When Karaban got burned on D, it was often because Sanogo couldn’t recover being too far from basket, leaving Karaban in a bad position.
I think that it doesn't even warrant a reply, as it's obvious to everyone he has no clue
Did you watch the game today?
I’ve watched every minute this season. No need to be condescending.
You’re right. Karaban is amazing. He totally didn’t get dominated today on defense. Definitely didn’t get dominated on the boards. Didn’t miss a bunch of open shots. Each of our players are the best in the country!!!
