Indiana only beat them 80-61 and that was with Mbako having a career night with 31 pts on 13-17 fg.
Think we're pretty good.
Pretty pretty good.
And free throws. Other than that we are looking good.Just work on gelling and rebounding and all good
Rebounding. We were out-rebounded and they had 27 (!) offensive rebounds. They did the same thing to IU, but 27?!?I’m sure Brad will find a reason to be mad during the film session, but he’s got the raw materials to make something special.
Great post. Imagine if KJ and TJ played together.Ok...
Enjoy every minute of Kasparas...I think it's only one year for him.
For a Freshmen, he is as advanced of a offensive PG as you will see. Passing is outstanding, he sees the court extremely well, he is never sped up, his handle is excellent. As a Freshman, you just don't see point guards that calm, collective and poised.
The thing that stands out for me the most though, is his leadership...he, already, is the undisputed leader if the team. He is talking and giving guidance every...single...play. He's unselfish, fun to play with and from every bit of info we have, is a basketball junkie...it's ball and that's it for him.
For an NBA scout, he's a 6'6 true blue PG. And if he keeps developing like this, he'll be the highest Illnois player drafted in a while.
Very high ceiling...but not good yet. I am certain BU would assess the same....but if they close in on their potential, another special season is possible. Much to do but hard work will get it done. What I see is a well-balanced team with shooters, and 4 of them are 6'8"+. Pretty exciting.Indiana only beat them 80-61 and that was with Mbako having a career night with 31 pts on 13-17 fg.

Pretty pretty good.
The fact that KJ was so unconcerned about getting the triple double and just played his game to the end makes me love him more.
