Announcers talking in-depth about Joeys zero point game in the Spartans win over Nebraska

We may have found the source of the cancer.

[MU82]

Joey has some offensive talent, but he has serious weaknesses on both ends of the court (especially one), as we saw during his one season here.

He also appears to be quite mentally weak. And unfortunately, a mentally weak person ended up playing a major role in ruining our best season in years, as well as a potentially outstanding follow-up season.

Joey came off the bench tonight.   Message delivered.   Solid first half.



Joey apparently suggested it to Izzo.

Congrats the Mich St.  for a huge 2pt win over Penn St.

Did he write a letter?

Maybe he's growing up a little.

Or maybe mommy and daddy told him to do it.

I'd wager a guess a lot more mature then what you and the rest of the scapegoats give credit

I'll give Joey credit when he's participating on a successful team.

Sam and Joey were 100% right to exit this program. They saw Woj for what he is...total incapable fraud, hey?

Sam 8 10 and 3 in the Cavs win over Georgia Tech.

UVA is 14-3

Attaboy. Root for the traitors instead of your alma mater.

Sam has been a heck of a player for 3 seasons (and a valuable role player as a frosh) and he was a terrible loss.

Joey has done absolutely nothing as a college basketball player. Indeed, he has done worse than nothing - he contributed significantly to the failure of one (long-ago) storied program, and is now contributing to the failure of a (very recently) storied program.

What could 2018-19 Marquette and 2020-21 Michigan State possibly have in common? Hmm ... I wonder ... what (or who) could it be?

[4everwarriors]

C'mon man, some are visionary, are able  call a spade a spade, even if it hurts or isn't popular to do so. Were the Hausers wrong for doing so, hey?

[The Big East]

Joey 9 and 7 coming off the bench. Spartans routed by Iowa.

Sam 17-5-2 in UVA pivotal ACC win over UNC. Cavs are 15-3 and first in ACC.

Pivotal? The clear first placed team beating a bubble team at home in a game they were never below 78% odds to win isn't exactly what I'd call pivotal.

Correlation does not equal causation. You know that, Mike.

No point guard?

[tower912]

My Spartan fan buddies are more frustrated with Rocket Watts than they are with Joey.    They rant about a guy who can refuse the keys.  And then they usually end somewhere around it being a COVID season and he probably not get enough coaching in the off-season.

Have to chime back in.
You nailed it and said it with class.
Traitor is being kind. 
All the talk abought enlightened self interest is nonsense.
Selfishness is what it is and usually gets rewarded for what it is.

Sam 11 and 5 tonight .  Cavs blown out by FSU

[MU82]

I sat down to watch the Your Honor series finale tonight and thought I'd check out this game before I went to Showtime.

As the game hit my screen, the announcer was talking about how Virginia had rallied from a 23-point deficit. They were down by 8 with about 13 1/2 minutes to go.

Over the next 5-6 minutes, Florida State outscored Virginia 17-0 to go up 25. Game over.

During that stretch, Sam missed two wide-open 3s and a short jumper on a post-up. He also threw the ball away once.

And I honestly don't think FSU missed a shot during the entire run. Heck, I'm not even sure the ball touched the rim. Every shot was SPLASH, right through the net. It was like Hoosiers - the movie, not the mediocre team coached by Archie Miller.

I had seen more than enough and switched to Showtime. I mostly enjoyed Your Honor, too.

What an amazing coincidence that you just happened to tune in at the precise time that showcased Sam at his absolute worst. Odds against it probably 1000-1. And yet I'm not even surprised a little. Amazing...

Was waiting for my wife to join me to watch Your Honor, so I put the game on for a few minutes. She sits down and says, "Who's playing?" And I say, "Virginia-Florida State. And since I turned the game on, Florida State hasn't missed and Virginia hasn't come close to scoring. It was an 8-point game and now it's 20-something."

I kid you not, Tony.

As you know, I like Sam as a player. He could have been a Marquette all-timer and I still think he could make a lot of money in the NBA. And he could have a nice NCAA run with Va. this season. But yes, he sucked in this game, or at least in the stretch I saw.

EDIT: Oh, and BTW, I also saw Sam have an excellent 5-minute stretch against UNC on Saturday - hit a pair of 3s, had a steal and a nice pass. Not surprising; he's a very good player.
