@GoShockersMBB Zero defensive gameplan for the 3rd leading scorer on the NATION?? Drop coverage on ball screens? No double team against a team that shoots 28% from 3? Giles + TJ bailout. Coaching staff needs to be 1000x better than this.
Please stop comparing that kid to Kobe Bryant. I don’t care how good of a player he is. Tracy McGrady, I’ll allow it. Carmelo, cool. But at this point it’s insulting to Kobe to keep doing that.
I got recruited by Coach Turgeon he left and Coach Marshall recruited me after. The truth is it didn’t matter who the Coach was I only committed because the people & fans of Wichita Kansas. You all make the meaning of WSU and the culture. Let’s turn things up in the roundhouse🔥
NEW: Tennis star Amanda Anisimova shuts down smug reporter who asked if she was proud to represent America at the Australian Open
Reporter: How do you feel playing under the American flag right now?
Anisimova: I'm always proud to represent my country.
Reporter: Just to clarify a little, in the context of the last year of everything that's been happening in the US, does that complicate that feeling at all?
Anisimova: I don't think that's relevant.
"He's the only guy in the league that when they win, he's an all-time legend. And when they lose, even when it's because of his mistakes, it's gotta be someone else's fault."
@getnickwright says Josh Allen's media treatment has gotten out of hand
At some point when reviewing plays, the league should consider adding a speed threshold for anything involving the element of time.
When you slow plays down to 1/100th the speed, it distorts what actually happened and makes it look like, in this case, Cooks possessed the ball for seconds prior to losing it. The game is not played in slow motion or frame by frame.
For a catch:
A) Secure control of the ball ✅
B) Two feet down in bounds ✅
C) After (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, clearly performs any act common to the game (e.g., extend the ball forward, take an additional step, tuck the ball away and turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so.
C is where there is a judgement needed since A and B are clearly met. Now consider this note to the rule:
If a player, who satisfied (a) and (b), but has not satisfied (c), contacts the ground and loses control of the ball, it is an incomplete pass if the ball hits the ground before he regains control, or if he regains control out of bounds.
Because Cooks did lose control of the ball when he contacted the ground and the ball never contacted the ground, it was ruled an interception by Denver.
