Guard play wins games in the NCAA tournament, we saw it last year as well when Gonzaga lost to Baylor in the national championship. Auburn had 2 1st round front court players and didn't make a deep run. you have a 7 footer with let's say at least passable guard skills so go create some mismatches. force them to figure out how to defend this guy. don't just put timme on an island and have the other guys watching. timme wasn't the problem, they shot like **** as a team and chet was forced off the floor. but nobody benefits from watching timme posting and reposting jaylin williams auburn isn't a comparable situation because when jabari was cold and when he's cold, he's cold. he wasn't giving them anything else. and kessler is pretty clearly the worst offensive player of the four Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess taking the ball out of a first team AA's hands for Chet would've saved them?

They went undefeated last year and lost to Baylor in the title game, it's very difficult to win a national championship, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seminoles1 Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 8 hours ago, NYRaider said: Now granted, I don't watch college basketball so I can't compare anything else. But on that play Chet clearly tried to draw a charge after just 1 bump. It wasn't bad defense, just a costly attempt to draw a foul. Could very well have been 1 of many plays where Chet got bodied. Maybe it was a consistent thing Chet did because he couldn't handle any physicality at all. But that one play wasn't bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be really bad for his development. I always hate seeing a parent/parents ruin the potential career of their kid. Bates dad has played this all wrong and has completely cratered the stock of his “prize possession” of a son. Besides it being close to home, there’s no benefit to him playing at EMU. On a side note, Flagg is apparently going to Montverde Academy starting next year so he should be in the clear lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanna see what he does for an encore. His numbers are drug down by his 7 games off the bench but, as a starter, he posted; 18.1 PTS, 4.2 REB, 2.0 AST, 1.4 STL, 1.7 TOV on 40.8/38.1/74.3 If he can get the overall shooting percentage up, he's got a shot to climb into the early lottery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had to make up for all the mistakes of our last front office, still can't believe we dumped Rudy's deal for 5 1sts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
