Seton Hall game thread

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Yep.....another nice 2:00 stint of action for Dawson.  Wonder if yanked because Edwin hit the 3 from corner as Dawson was providing help to the driving player - which is Buzz defense principle number one - protect the paint.

All the musical chair lineups are ridiculous.  Pick 8 guys and let them run.

Dawson, Burton, Jamil, Gardner, Jake, Mayo, Derrick, JJJ, and as a 9th Otule and spot minutes for Derrick.

You may not like it, but Buzz has done this for years. It worked wonders for us last season. When you are as deep as us, you try to keep your players fresh

Juan maybe about 15 negative contributions against Xavier.

Lower bowl.  Good seats.

Hope he didn't get those tickets from a friend in school!

3 players I dislike (I know you dont care) Juan, Jake and D. Wilson. Looking forward to their graduation.

And we're looking forward to your furture banning

Agree on all counts. I would pick Shaq in a free throw contest over Derrick.

Problem is we are not "deep"

this is resembling the Tubby Smith Gophers. He had 10-11 guys playing...but 7 that deserved to play.

Cant wait for Der-Brick Oneal Howard Wilson from the Free Throw line
to Graduate... Cant make a 1,2 or 3 point shot with consistency but
plays Jabarri Parker and Andrew Wiggin type Minutes....

And people loved it last year. I remember reading that that was why our defense was so good, they were always fresh. Makes Al's eccentric quote ring true.

I love me some Jake Thomas hustle

[PGsHeroes32]

Todd, DG and Jamil back in.

No longer look like an adaptive basketball team.

This really shouldn't be hard.

and I will come back with another name:) thats the beauty of using my phone.

Kevin O'Neill - "It's really interesting how Seton Hall is guarding the point guard - Derrick Wilson.  They aren't even guarding him.  They are daring him to shoot."

No, Buzz hasn't gone 10-11 deep in conference play historically.  He usually shortens rotation to 8 guys.

And FYI - with all the strength and conditioning these guys do - they aren't going to not be fresh if they play anything less than 25 minutes.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

3 fouls on Geramipoor, 2 on Mobley, 2 on Sina. Starting PG, PF and Backup C

That is what is killing us, get Dawson and JJJ back as they need the time and their offense needs to be respected

[ronald dragon]

Run back on D Gardner!

[PGsHeroes32]

lol Derrick can't make a jumper to save his life, but make that???

Last Season Rotation during conference play:
1 Cadougan
2 Blue
3 Lockett
4 J Wilson
5 Gardner
6 Otule
7 Mayo
8 D Wilson
9 Anderson
10 Taylor
11 Thomas

The top 10 played in every conference game I believe. Thomas played in a handful. That's a 10-11 man rotation

But I agree on the second point. With as athletic as we are, we should be able to get 30+ mins a game out of our best players if we need it

[Texas Western]

Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while.... We will take it !

[ronald dragon]

Confidence building game for Dwills shot?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Derrick is on fire!

[PGsHeroes32]

Honestly at this point

I really don't care what our rotation are as long as every game(barring foul trouble for Jamil)

DG, Todd and Jamil are all getting 30ish minutes a game.
