Sounds like a pass. Perhaps a YouTube night.
What, exactly, is the point of Clifford right now?
When he decides to be good on offense it's gonna be awesome. Until then... Grrr
For her, it's not even that. She doesn't like Jokic either. It drives her crazy when basketball players don't maximize their gifts by having a body like vintage Sean Kenp.
Doesn’t seem like he’s capable of making that decision.
It's all mentality with him. It certainly not a physical tools problem
I believe it to be both. Even when he wills himself to attempt something on offense, he’s frequently blocked, or horribly out of position. Not to mention he has roughly 6 months to figure it out before he’s recruited over.
He
He's not getting recruited over. He learned how to play good defense in one year. If he focuses on offense, it will come. The talent is there
I believe if he doesn’t figure it out sooner than not, Diop and Hurlburt both pass him by
He's got good footwork on that drop step from the left block. But he needs to compliment it with a reliable baby hook over his right shoulder. 2 moves and he's a double digit scorer.
Can other people also hear these “BB people”?
So . . . how was the gym this morning?
After her reaction to our son asking, "You don't like the dad bod?" I'm thinking I maybe should get back into it.
The little I have seen of Hurlburt, he isnt passing LL anytime soon. Not to say he wont be a solid player, but barring some miracle, he will play behind LL till he graduates. With a Hurlburt redshirt year this year, you are setting up a pretty good pipeline to let them grow into the role needed.
Hurlburt can shoot. I think this redshirt year will be good for him. He needs to get in the weight room. And he may be a 4, not a 5. In the Siewert mold.

Gabbidon isn't giving us much either.Some things are inevitable: Sunrises, taxes, death, Thanos, questioning Lawson Lovering after Buff games.
And yet there is not a peep about the continued horror shows that are Clifford and Wright.
Yeah, he's probably just a tad better most nights than Wright and Clifford which isn't saying much. We need to start increasing Ruffin and Allen's minutes.

Good one, you are very witty.
Ethan Wright has been a huge disappointment to me. Can't shoot, is not rebounding, not a value add for me if he can't do those two things. Replacing him with Williams next year will be a massive upgradeSome things are inevitable: Sunrises, taxes, death, Thanos, questioning Lawson Lovering after Buff games.

How about this?

Completely agree. Clifford makes horrible decisions on offense. I really thought he was going to take another step forward this year and be a consistent 10 ppg scorer by knocking down open 3's and finishing around the basket. Not only has his offense regressed, but his rebounding and nose for making plays just isn't there this season. Wright has been a disaster. I've lost count of the number of times he's been unable to stay in front of a driving guard/wing. His rate of actually creating points on a drive has to be less than 25%, usually resulting in him being stuffed or a wild pass back out to the 3 point line. If he's not hitting 3's, his game brings nothing.
