JVB consistently lets me down

[tigershoops31]

Gave it his all? Are you kidding me? I appreciate what he did for the program this year but it seemed like some of the time he didn't want to be out there or got tired to quickly or something. But every game I watched, which was 90% of them, he didn't crash the boards. Even the announcers during yesterday's game criticized him for standing in the paint and watching it dry instead of working it.

You need to realize that by the time a player is at the point JVB was at this year you aren't probably going to massively transform him...If you appreciate the fact that he's going to stretch the defense whether he's on or not, and occasionally give you some rebounds and some small inside presence you won't be disappointed.

He's kind of like the kicker on The Replacements...smokes a pack a day and drinks like a fish away from the game and sometimes give you flashes of brilliance because he's talented but he's not an in-your-face competitor whose whole life revolves around the sport and having himself be in 100% top condition for it

Idk if this thread has already been created... But he has **** poor boards. And yesterday when Alec Burks took that 2 possible 3 that he got fouled on for and one by DG Jamie took 2 steps back instead of stepping up and contesting the shot. That was the shot that really helped Colorado win the game. He shows moments of brilliance from the paint and can shoot the 3 but his defense it so freaking bad I can't even see past it to see the good at times. Sorry if there are JVB fans out there, but I for one won't miss him.

I have not read the entire thread, so pardon me if I am repeating things other people have stated.

First, his 3-point shot could have just as easily gone down instead of bouncing off the rim.

Had the shot gone down, good chance ISU would have won the game. Then he would have been the hero.

Did you post this same thing after his game-winning shot over Creighton?
