Because he’s talking about offensive efficiency and Baer was extremely efficient on O the last 4 years.
Fuck you dork! I'm going to stick with my feelings over your stats. I still say he was a spot up shooter that depended on others to create open looks for him. I'm comfortable with other guys getting those shots.
Of course he depended on others to create for him. He still needed to take and make them. He shot 38% from 3 (while attempting more than Moss), 54% from 2, had the lowest turnover rate on the team was and was the 2nd best rebounder per 40 and by percentage.
*7 basketball games. They will play 2 in Vegas.
That's the William Penn method. They take anyone and everyone that has been dismissed, transferred, poor grades, or on their 3rd or 4th school. It does not matter as long as you can play basketball.
Baer's rebounding will be missed the most. This team has a lot of good shooters and if Baer's shots get spread around I think the percentage will be roughly the same.
Is JoeT more of a Kevin Smith or a Brian Garner?
I can say with complete confidence that Toussaint isn't anything like the spazzes you mentioned or Trigger Trey Dickerson. He is taller, way better built and will be a legit player. I disagree with Revolver that he was out of control, more he looked like a freshman playing his first game and tried to do a little too much a few times.
He was very spazzy at times and was definitely trying to do way too much. Aside from Kriener, I would say he and Evelyn were the least impressive players last night. But yeah, it is early.
I get what you are saying, simply disagree that he was as spazzy and as out of control as you are describing. Evelyn and Kreiner were definitely the least impressive, but Toussaint showed multiple times exactly what will make him different. He was good on the break with Patrick, is a strong rebounder for a guard and he is going to be able to get to the rim and draw defenders or get fouled while being able to keep players out of the lane.
I fully agree on that last part. At very least, he is quick and can play D. That’ll be good enough this season.
I saw a lot more Deano in him than Leslie, but I'll take either.
Stream quality was fine. Unfortunately the production quality has also improved. They still have some shitty camera work and I don’t understand their shots they use to cut to commercial break, but it isn’t the shit show I’ve come to desire out of BTN+.
The best thing about this year for Toussaint is actually going to be that there isn't overwhelming pressure on him to handle the ball in crucial situations. There are 4 other guys that can help with that and he can grow into his role.
I thought it was headed that way when on the first possession the camera guy forgot to move the camera and follow the action, but overall it was disappointingly well done.
Bingo. Usually Iowa is forced to rely too heavily on players like him.
No. There was a lot of buffering and non HD moments. At least it's only 2 games.
Not for me. No buffering. HD quality the entire time.
Maybe already posted, but here is a complete box score:
He didn't look slight or weak at all; he looked strong I thought, plenty strong for Big 10 play
I’m sure they made it up.
If you watched the game, you heard them make up several other comments as well
I did, and I was shocked to hear the Patrick McCaffery bit, but I don’t believe they just made that up. That doesn’t make any sense.
have you seen him shoot?
