yes.  Today was first game where he kind of looked like he could actually play the point.  Of course, have to consider the level of competition...Good overall stat line though.

Juan Anderson. Not that the game was ever in doubt, but it was essentially over at 18-2. Juan had 9 points on 3-3 from 3-point range, 3 rebounds and a couple steals at that point.
Title: Re: sotg

Post by: Goose on December 14, 2013, 05:05:48 PM
Jamil set the pace early. DG had nice game, but Jamil was difference maker.

On another note, when all is said Burton might end up being third best player out of that class. Bright things ahead for the freshmen. Johnson is going to be a very big impact player.

Title: Re: sotg
Post by: chapman on December 14, 2013, 07:59:09 PM
Juan.  Love the threes and the 5 steals.  The outside shots and that disruptive defense is exactly what this team hasn't had enough of.  IUPUI had 11 turnovers, and 10 were steals - have to get that as opposed to relying on a team to make unforced errors.
Title: Re: sotg
Post by: tower912 on December 14, 2013, 08:38:15 PM
Davante DQ'd from the competition for ....as my 7-year-old's teachers put it.....making a bad choice.

Anderson and Jamil......Juan and 1A.


Juan.
Title: Re: sotg
Post by: jsglow on December 14, 2013, 08:41:34 PM
I'm going with Juan but Jamil would be another good choice.  I love Juan's super quick hands and his hustle on D.  Today we added outstanding offensive production.  In Jamil's case, I thought he looked very effective running the point and played a great game.

I loved Juan's activity level all game and, of course, his 3-for-3 from 3 that set the tone of the blowout.

Jamil a fine second choice (and I wouldn't quibble about either he or Deonte being the first choice).

Seriously, he had a real good game on both ends of the floor.  He was a key part in coming out strong and basically putting this game away before the 10 minute mark of the first half.

Actually that's exactly what he is.

http://statsheet.com/mcb/players/compare?add=juan-anderson&p1=trent-lockett

Juan plays a little less....scores a little less...rebounds a little better...more assists...less turnovers...play very good team defense.  And Juan is playing the same position that Trent did last year.

We'll see how he holds up as the season rolls on, but either you are completely underrating Juan...or overrating Trent from last year.

Thanks Sultan, good stuff as usual.  The thing that jumped out at me was Juan started the season something like 0-10 from the 3 line.  I recall him getting the lid off with one shot, I think against Bucky.  Yesterday he was absolute money.  And his pesky defense at least since the west coast trip has been really good.  Looking forward to another good game from him Tuesday.  He's one guy who simply MUST continue to emerge.

First of all, our opinions are just that, opinions, not votes.  The moderators decide the SOTG.  Also, what part of 5 assists and 5 steals don't you understand.  Also, do you know that  other things like excellent defense matter in who gets the SOTG.

(A) You never made a choice.   You just cried.
(B) IMO, I don't care if Gardner went for 40 and 40, that stunt at the end DQ'd him.
(C) I don't disagree with anyone who says Jamil deserved it.   I just think Juan's early contributions to get the ball rolling counted more.   
(D) There is no money, no award, the mods pick it based on their own observations and input from us.   You never made a choice.   Make a choice next time.   Early.

I think my choice was heavily implied.

Really? A minor shoving match DQ'd him? Personally I love the fire he showed. Obviously don't want it happening frequently at risk of suspension. But being a little upset that someone just stepped on your head...is understandable.

Davante punked the guy.  He didn't like the physical play, missed the shot and pushed the IUPUI player while ostensibly going for the rebound.  Plus, he scored all of his points after Juan had gotten the team rolling.  And you didn't state a preference until after it was decided.

It wasn't an argument. The claim was that Juan put the game away. There wasn't anything to put away. The game was never in doubt. In large part because Davante and basically the entire team could score whenever they wanted to.

Difference is, Davante can put up big numbers against good teams as well.

More points, rebounds, better FG%.

All Juan had was more steals and 2 more assists. Davante's advantages in points and rebounds(9 more pts and 7 more rebounds) were almost a double double themselves.

So by your logic, assuming the team gets out to an early lead(very rare sadly) the stud of the game should automatically be the starter who scored the early points?

even if another guy put up 20 and 11?

I know 20 and 11 especially against a really bad team can be expected of Davante and Juan will probably never do this in his college career....but the standard should be the same.

I don't know if I can use any smaller or simpler words when stating...

A 20-10 highly efficient double/double was the best performance by anyone who stepped onto the Bradley Center court on December 14th, 2013.

And other people, seemingly the majority of other people, disagree. So maybe it's your logic that is flawed.

Juan put up a complete, end-to-end performance and didn't carry himself like an immature child when the scoreboard dictated there was no need to do so. Davante had a great game. He would have been a decent choice. Others, including those who make the decision, feel Juan was a better choice. Why are you crying so much about it?

And others are arguing that an 11 point, 4 rebound, 5 assist, 5 steal, 3-4 3P with better than Davante defense performance is better than a 20-10 highly efficient double/double.

Brewcity,  that line of juan being 1 rebound from a quadruple -nickel was funny. Yeah I have no problem with Juan winning the honor, 5 steals is very impressive. He makes this a much better team no doubt when he is on the floor..
