Hopefully they are just easing him back. I’m no Dunkirk Don, but I heard that Chukwu staying out of foul trouble kept Sidibe on the bench last night. They are easing him back. This is good news for Syracuse.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Well, that was awful. Don’t really get how they got so clobbered on the glass too. A real fitting way to end the game.
The Poojer Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 they really need to be able to score....this game would have been a runaway with more than 2 offensive threats

A real fitting way to end the game. Effort was horrible down the stretch. The way Howard and Dolezaj gave up on that final play makes me want to puke. I’m still speechless.
The Poojer Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Good first half by Syracuse. Figured they were gonna lay an ostrich size egg against UVA tonight
Greybeard Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 At this point I doubt if they reach 20 wins. They really need a 3 point shooter.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Nice effort. i don’t get why JB doesn’t try to revamp the offense. Their iso pick and roll offense or dribble drive or whatever he calls it is terrible. You can’t have 3 assists as a team and win a game.
row_33 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Good effort for 25 minutes, kept Salt out of the game, tough opponent that will fall a bit short in March as always....
Johnny Hammersticks Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Perimeter shooting. This team sucks at it. Brissett and Chukwu are playing their tails off. Shame we can’t score.
row_33 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Gotta run Virginia off the court, some nobody will do it in March to them
sherpa Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Great to see my Hoos beat Boeheim's zone again. UVA is the best defensive team in the country, but always falls short in the tourney against physical teams, and usually has scoring issues. This year they have two more reliable three shooters, but that usually doesn't work nearly as well on the road. Great win.

That said, his teams are not build to make serious runs in March and this team is no different. Reminds me of the Pitt teams under Jamie Dixon. Great defense, physical, and some solid team offensive play. But you need some star scorers who can carry the team when needed and make big shots.
row_33 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 uVa would be a dream team for any coach to have they couldn’t get the low post going so Hunter worked it great up high and the 3s were raining in

Great defense, physical, and some solid team offensive play. But you need some star scorers who can carry the team when needed and make big shots. Things change slowly. Virginia has been a tough place to recruit national level high school scorers. Very high and uncompromising academic standards. A lot of emphasis on defense. I've watched them practice a couple times and his system is ingrained before they ever see the court in a game. Red shirt everybody. But, little by little they are getting better shooters, and NBA success is aiding recruiting. Malcolm Brogdan being named the steal of the draft and NBA rookie of the year was a positive thing, but he's a special kid. Anyway, the ACC is tough schedule and they always go into mid March a little tired and without great depth, and it catches up to them.
