Kolek-t call from DC
« on: January 07, 2022, 07:28:15 PM »
1.  Wonderful ball movement.   
2.  I remember saying early in the year that the structure of the offense reminded me of the midgets.  The last two games have really shown that.
3.  Took advantage of Georgetown when they were down.
4.  All of those guys throwing OMP and TKo under the bus ...
5.   Two great games in a row.   Make it 3.

Took care of business against a wounded team.  Some sloppy moments but largely dominance

Keep your eyes on Kolek. He might be a difference maker.

Lots of dunks. Only complaint about tonight is the defensive rebounding. Back to back great games though.

Hopefully Stevie keeps developing on offense because his defense for a freshman guard is really, really good.  He gets a little grabby but we havent had a young guard who could move his feet like that in a while.

Steve Lavin just said MU is a developing team who has played a tough schedule and predicted they will make the tourney.

Get used to the dunks. We have a decade of dunks ahead of us.

I was talking to a colleague earlier that this team did remind me of the midgets team, that team lost a ton of close games but they were gritty.

This is what we SHOULD do against Georgetown.  I got so sick of nail-biters with them under Wojo.

DC Marvel would have been my thread title, but not bad Tower.

As part of the cult of low expectations, I must admit this team is trending up.  Let's keep the momentum going!

If he’s an A10 talent the A10 is pretty damn good!

Simpkins praise of Kolek during the broadcast was well-intentioned but seemed like backhanded compliments and a bit of racial microaggressions. He described Kolek as crafty, high basketball IQ and unathletic. Maybe I’m watching a different game but I think Kolek is quite  athletic! Does he have a 45-inch vertical? No. But he constantly beats his man off the dribble and can splice through the defense. He’s the straw that stirs our drink right now.

He’s very creative in the way he gets to the hoop

I was fortunate enough to see that midgets team in a open gym. I said at the time that I had no idea how good they would be, but they’d be fun to watch. As you point out, this team is very similar.  It is a nice change.

I thought for sure some of his shots would be blocked. But no! Once at the hoop, he is very creative getting the shot up, too.

When Kolek is going downhill……his assists are textbook. When he is not…..when he is drifting away from the intended target it’s 50/50 at best. Great to see TKI take advantage early tonight.

I don’t disagree with any of the comments. But it was weird to compare him to Steve Nash in one breath and say he’s not athletic in another. I’m super excited about Kolek. His court vision is incredible and he’s only going to get better. But to Simpkin’s point, he’s probably not NBA material. But that means we have three more years of him and he’s still got a ton of upside

What's the season record for blocks? I know that the 4-year record is Jimmy Mac's 199.  Kur has to be close.
Have some patience, FFS.

Flew down to DC for the game and wound up having dinner with a group of about 3 dozen Pennsylvanians wearing an inordinate number of MU 4 jerseys.
They love this kid!
Got a couple of calls on hand checks but held up his end.
