BDJ Dunk Pose

Did I pass your troll test? Am I still a suspect? A person of interest? Plz respond.

At the moment, I'm about 75% sure you're a troll. I'm thinking UNLV troll. You joined right when things got heated with Vaughn. And this thread happens to be about a former UNLV player. It all makes sense.

We made fun of Jeremy Lamb because his team had lost and he epically failed.

Yeah, I don't see any similarities between the two.

You are a special person. Please never change.

I hope he does a windmill next time.

If you don't like it, then don't watch the games.

Well, at least watch one half. Right?

I left with like 3 minutes left in the game... my dad left with like 10 minutes left #fairweatherfan

I just hate it when I'm going up for a dunk and my head itches.

I only saw the first few post and just read saw the replay as I didn't see the game. I thought everyone meant he did a pose after the dunk, like not getting back on D. After seeing the replay, and the picture, calm down. It's an exhibition game. It's a breakaway dunk in a blowout, let them have fun.

I love it. #swag.

I think that's what I love about the dunk. He looks so casual doing it. I think the big thing I took away from BDJ last night is that, despite his reputation as high-usage player, he showed that we might not need to run a lot of sets for him to still get his points. He'll find ways to impact the game with his athleticism and instincts (although I'm sure Fred will runs some plays for him, too)

There was another play when I saw Edozie smiling. No room for that either

 

[MaccloNe]

I thought it was awesome. The only people saying cut it out are old fart conservatives

Not true. I thought it was awesome.

Geeeez.... here we go again. Cyclonessince78's infatuation with me again. I love you too buddy.

In my post last night regarding this event, I specifically stated that I personally didn't have a problem with it, but I thought that Fred might have. That was it.

And in this thread alone, there are 3 other posters questioning whether or not it was a good idea or not, but yet, Cyclonessince78 has to bring up me as the only person upset about it, and ironically, I wasn't even upset about it at all.

I questioned how Fred was going to take it, that's it. And as someone else said already, Fred took him out right after that. I'm sure he might have told him tone it down a bit and make the simple play next time.... because I've heard Fred talk about making the simple play about a million times since he's been here.

As fans we may love the flashy, showboating dunks, but most head coaches don't care for it much. That was my only point last night. But feel free to twist my words so that you can find a reason to ridicule me.... whatever makes you feel better about yourself.

This. Quietly Cyclonesince78 apparently has same problem with me. And then he says go root for the hawks. What? Just doesn't seem like a happy guy. We were beating the team pretty bad and I thought it was a little over kill and SO did Hoiberg. Exciting times ahead, especially when the other players get in the mix.

 

[3rdGenStater]

I'm an old fart, and I have no problem with it. And I'll also be on board with it when it happens in Allen Fieldhouse to punctuate a Cyclone win down there.

 

[MaccloNe]

For being 6' 6", the ball looks like it is a couple feet above the rim.

 

[19clone91]

If it was a the last second of the game then I can see the argument. But it was in the middle of the game...

please...

Don't take it personally. I think he is just a guy who looks for any way to call other people out. Just learn to brush it off and have fun with it. I'd still rather deal with Cyclonesince78 than, say, Tuco.

how do you know hoiberg thought so. it was likely he was coming out anyway.

 

[swarthmoreCY]

I love it, as long as Coach Hoiberg is okay with it.
It was such a bloodbath, it had more of a Hilton Madness feel to it than a game. Like it was an exhibition.

BDJ is incredibly talented. In terms of raw ability he is up there with Royce IMO. Can't help but wonder what level he would be at having spent the past 3 years playing for Fred. Easily could be right there with Georges for accolades.

I look at it this way: If I was a Viterbo player, how would I have felt about the dunk? Personally, I would have no problem with it. That's as close to big time college basketball as those guys are going to get. It's a game they'll tell their kids about. I doubt any of the V-Hawk players left Hilton with their feelings hurt.

People that don't like it can go root for McDoormat at Creighton.
