Thread: DG

I love DG. He looks a lot better this year. His defender was sagging off him in the last game but he shot a decent 2/6 from the floor. If he can do that they'll eventually have to start getting out on him.

There has been, but what I've seen in the last 2 games (and heard in the STL game) is that when the going gets tough, we revert back to old habits from the previous few seasons.

Which is maddening because, those old habits were not effective!

Which means he made one mistake...

Colvin was MUCH better last night than in any other game I've seen.

Aside from that, he was pretty damn good last night. Assist numbers were down at 4, but we were not scoring the ball well. Just one turnover and 15 points.

Without solid, consistent play from DG, frankly - UNI beats us by double figures.

I'm ****** like no other we've lost 2 in a row that we should have won, but I must give this kid props - especially because I've been so hard on him.

He's proving his great play earlier in the season hasn't been a fluke.

Completely disagree... He's better than he was last year.

The other team knows they don't have to guard him. Exactly, why everybody was standing around.

Huh? That's exactly what I'm saying.

So many of our turnovers were completely unforced. That was the difference.

Okay...but it's the same ****, only losing by less. Still a loss...

No kidding. I swear we had 4 or 5 in the first 3 minutes of the second half.

I'm trying to figure out what your damn problem is here. I'm giving credit to DG...so...

I'm saying we lost because DG should not have been in there. Not okay with DG in the half court. Buckley and Colvin fit the half court better. Not okay with Ham getting pulled either.

Wrong personel on the court.

My bad. Anyways, I agree Colvin had his best performance yet this year when out there. Problem is McDermott usually goes with experience over the hot hand...

I don't really get this. We play half court basketball all the time. So are you saying that DG should never play?
