@DameSarrMuse That’s cool and all but Evans still sucked at defense when he won us the Auburn game. At the end of the day, when we’re losing a big game in pathetic fashion and no one looks good, Scheyer would rather eat the loss than exhaust all reasonable paths to victory.
@reidpleasants02@DameSarrMuse 2) Against, same shit with Evans. He gets DNPed in big losses vs UK and KU then singlehandedly wins the game vs #2 Auburn once Scheyer finally stops being a dumbass. Worst case scenario you keep losing and nothing happens.
@reidpleasants02@DameSarrMuse 1) MSU’s 4 star 40th ranked freshman Taylor also got 10-15 mins in blowouts against midmajors. Still played 8 mins against us. You mean to tell me a top 5 overall recruit, who looked fine when he played, can’t even sniff the floor even when the starter and team are struggling???
@DukeEmpire5 That’s because we have the talent advantage every fucking game. And even when we win, the overwhelming talent discrepancy can mask coaching differences.
@Sports_Kings_ I’m not panicking at this yr’s team in particular, they played a horrible game and still lost by only 6 to a top 5 opponent. My issue is with Scheyer. The coaching was terrible and it’s the same issues he’s had before. If he’s regressed/stagnated, it’s bad news in the long run.
@M_Bulger19 Same bullshit arguments I heard for Evans freshman yr btw. “He wouldn’t make a difference anyways” “He’s not ready” then singlehandedly wins the Auburn game. Worst case he doesn’t change anything and at least you tried something else. Best case he actually does make an impact.
@M_Bulger19 Izzo played 11 last night, including 3 who got spotty minutes in their first 2 games. And again, they’re not expected to make an impact. But when our entire team is struggling are you just going to accept the L? Worst case Cam plays like JBB, and you wouldn’t know the best case.
@jakozloski 1) Same study shows that while male selectivity was mostly invariant as # potential partners increased, female selectivity increased noticeably. Extrapolate that to massive dating apps and…
2) This study is from 2006. Things have gotten a lot worse since then.
@shakehoops Rippey did a good job of attacking but needs to get more comfortable passing it out when defenders collapse on him like they did today. It'll come with time, unfortunately not sure the rest of our team can buy that time
@DukeMBB Scheyer doesn't adjust for extenuating circumstances, doesn't have coherent offense, has no answer for getting punched in the mouth, DNPs a 5 star even when the starter is struggling (while Izzo finds PT for his less talented players) episode 16324343223
@TheDukeNation Idk, on one hand we played a D game with our center being sick and somehow lost by only 6 to a top 5 opponent. On the other hand this game exposed a lot of our weaknesses - coaching, shooting, iso ball/turnovers, and I'm not sure the first two can be fixed easily
@OG_BENJAYLATREZ Scoot and Hansen don’t move me at all but the 2028 Orlando unprotected 1st is very tempting and we’re already trash. Sad part is we could have gotten back actual picks from the Lamelo trade and spent at most 1 to get Ja but here we are having to settle for Scoot
