Issa
- Thread starter zebnatto
- Start date
sometimes u gotta sit, hes played bad. Has to earn his minutes in practice. He hasnt done so. Such is life.
You were at practice? Made up news. Such is life. It wasn’t like we played great w/o him.
I’m not a huge fan of Issa. Plays pretty good defense but just doesn’t get separation quick enough on offense. Coach P has been overly patient in my opinion.
Totally agree. The really good thing is Pikes Staff. They will teach him how to get open, plus we have very good guards and ball movement which will help get him better looks. Confidence is key.
But he is a junior. He essentially is what he is at this point. If we’re going to play poorly do it with the freshman who might learn something from it
Not sure if you guys have watched much RU basketball the past 3 years
He has been taught for 3 years... I hope it clicks for him soon but his time for that to happen is dwindling
#1 - I've not missed a Rutgers B-BALL game in 20 some years, so I guess I’ve seen the past three years. I’ve personally witnessed many jr’s being mediocre and become really good seniors. In fact I’m still hopeful that Doorson does just that. Now I’m hoping Issa does the same.
Can’t argue with results. He should ride the bench until we lose a game.
7 for 16 from 3-point range -- 44%. This was the difference in the game. Plus 15-21 on FTs.
% was higher and I like the fact we didn’t take as many. Certainly a difference maker. But how does Issa factor into this? Issa is not a chucker. % is up because Geo didn’t force up as many. What’s the correlation?

IMO, Issa is getting the Peter Kiss treatment....sit him a game to send a message. Start playing with confidence and agressiveness or continue to sit.
Issa is shooting terribly. He didn't bring down the percentage. Issa is no threat to do anything offensively in terms of creating or generating offense so the offense flows better with him off the court.
Can we stop with the Issa talk already
Root for the kid to play better like everyone on the team
As of right now, he has been passed on the depth charts by players playing better basketball on a team that is starting to win
That is program building
If thiam plays better ...the coach will give him his chance and he will have to earn it with results
If we are to be a successful program...this is going to happen. It’s just that thiam is the first noticeable upperclassman that has been passed on the depth chart by youth

Issa was dressed but DNP-CD
He is still battling thru some health issues. Go easy on the kid please!

Thanks BK for sharing that important information
Explanation. He hasn't hit a three pointer since the Ice Age and is too slow on defense. It's about time Pike sat him down.
just in case anyone needs reminding that these things aren't straight trendlines
