Kolek planning to go pro
Sunday, he was the best player on an out-manned team. They need Malik Hall back. They need everybody to get healthy. Without Joey, it would have been a whuppin a lot sooner.
Joey disappeared during the 8 1/2 minute stretch when IU went from down 2 to up 15:2 missed layups, 1 turnover, 1 rebound, 2 made FTs.
First time I watched an entire MSU game this year. I agree with Tower that he was the least of their problems. If Kolek was at PG for MSU, Joey would have had 30 points. Wide open for 3s all game. Alas, no one to pass him the ball.
Seems he keeps finding himself in that predicament.
Guys like him need hall of fame coaches to maximize their talent
Sam, who had seen his playing time decrease substantially during a month-long shooting slump (.294 from 3), finally saw the ball go through the net more consistently last night. He played 19 minutes and scored 13 points, most coming before garbage time when the game was still close. He was 3-for-6 from 3. The Celtics had their 9-game winning streak snapped by Orlando, a bad team that weirdly is 3-1 against the team with the NBA's best record.
Kind of like when the raptors (who finished 21-61) beat the 72-10 bulls in 95-96.
Sam had an 0-6 in 25 minutes against the Heat . I wonder if that shoulder he hurt last year is giving him trouble
Piece about Joey on FS1 prior to the Sparty Iowa game. Fluff, but nice. In conjunction with an article on mlive where Izzo offers to meet on a street corner to fight the people on social media savaging his players. The implication being Sissoko and Joey.
MU82 ready to brawl.
