Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: Rutgers vs. St. Bonaventure
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
I think the problem to a certain extent is Young (and Kiss) still haven't figured out their identity. The experienced guards in this system have mainly figured that out. Young is fast, but his separation moves aren't good enough. Just as fast, if not faster than Corey, but Corey had a viscous crossover. They need to run Young on some off ball screens as fast as he can to get separation and then let him make his move. He's also probably a good, if not best, transition finisher. Let him try his drives before the defense gets set.
As for Kiss, I do feel like he is an underappreciated good shooter, but he is wrongfully categorized as a strictly 3-pt shooter. The 3-pointer just doesn't look fluid and effortless enough. They need to get him some mid-range jumpers and floaters, maybe off some screens.
Just my two cents...

10-20 from deep for SB vs. 5-20 from deep for RU - shooting matters...

Sub caleb in for young and go geo caleb harper yeboah myles to finish this out
That was a huge 3 for them. Time is now a factor for us. Gotta get to the line and score with the clock stopped.
Not seeing the game but checking the box score it's obvious that the difference in this one has been outside. Specifically the 3 point shooting. RU shooting 25% from behind the arc compared to 47$ for the opponent. That's a recipe for losing every time.
I don't understand - Pike came in and immediately infused the team with some grit and a defensive identity. Welcomed relief from Eddie's teams. Our defensive rotations have sucked though. How many open threes are we going to allow this season?
PS: Memo to Pike, Young is a liability.

its moreso our defense, i get what you are saying but our defense was atrocious early then we tighten up and got back in the game..we cant win track meets, not sure why Pike thinks we can
Ikpeze fouls out...Myles has to hit 2 ft here
Playing without a single 3 point threat is the pro-style offense of college basketball.
its inexcusable that Pike has been here for 4 years without recruiting a 3 point shooter...and none coming next year either
We knew this was gonna happen at some point or another.
Yet another year of no shooters.
C’mon, Pike...
