Deng Adel going ok on a Louisivlle team which keeps winning

His December has been much more productive and efficient that November

12.6 points on 43% from field, 30% from 3
6 rebounds
1.5 assists
0.8 blocks
0.5 steals

Also Jock Landale showing serious improvement at St Marys

 

[gcsunsfc]

Not good

The Locked on Bucks podcast guys are a bit disappointed in Delly and I think thats fair enough
He was good early but has fallen away a bit lately

Not shooting that well. Was always going to be difficulty given spacing differences between milwaukee and cleveland but probably hoping for a little bit more.

Part of the issue is in the clutch bucks are running Delly Giannis pick and rolls..DElly ends up a playmaker in clutch time..not what he has the skills for.

Disappointment probably comes from unreasonable expectations.

He was never going to score a lot or stuff a box score. What he has done has helped take bucks from 23rd defensively to 11th. Teams that can't stop the point of attack are stuffed in today's NBA, he does that

Played very well against Kentucky the other day.

Just dont see him getting more than 15 mins a night with George Hill on the team, unless he plays at other positions but PG is definitely his natural position

Get him to Philly I say with Simmons

Exum for Noel?

Hi guys, new to the basketball scene. Any local young kids impress you in the NBL at all or they likely to need to do the grind like Goulding did to become a regular Boomers squad player?

Joe Ingles is God. #takenote

 

[Tomnat Tigers]

Bolden appears to be doing well.

 

[gcsunsfc]

Didn't know why Harry Froling and Tom Wilson not playing at all at SMU

Turns out they've both asked for a transfer
Went there because of the legendary Larry Brown..who is no longer the coach.
Neither were getting many minutes

Be interesting to see where they end up

 

[drd23]

What were they expecting? Larry Brown never hangs around anywhere for very long, regardless of his success

College is messed up in that a player can be recruited by a coach, only for that coach to leave and go and coach another team immediately, but if the player wants to transfer, because their coach leaves and another comes in who doesn't want them, they often get forced to sit out a year.

That seems to be the least of the NCAA's problems.

Indeed, the list is long and inglorious when it comes to their problems.

Jock Landale leads Saint Mary's to a win over BYU, with 26 points on 11-13 shooting. More impressively, knocked up 6 assists, passing out of the post at will.

Has really lost some weight and looks in great shape, will be a solid professional player.

Jingles could be in for a decent payday.

3 and 25 wouldn't be out of the question. Maybe a bit more given the cap raise

Just watched this game. He looked pretty good.

St. Marys have 7 Aussies on their roster, including a pair of Jocks!

Ed O'Bannon approves of this message

Deng Adel and Louisville vs. Duke tomorrow.

Will be an interesting matchup for him. Defending Tatum or maybe some Grayson Allen.


To follow up on the Bolden comments he seems to be going well
13 points, 7 rebounds a game in Serbia.

Don't know what the quality of the opposition is like but good to see him playing somewhere

 

[KingNothing]

5:30pm Sunday (today) on ESPN2, St Mary's (15-1) vs Gonzaga (16-0). Should be a cracker!

Yet again the Zags have it over the Gaels.

• The Bulldogs shot 64.7 percent from the field, and hit 7-of-13 3-point shots.
• Saint Mary’s was held to 39.7 percent shooting.
• Gonzaga finished the game on a 21-4 run.
• Forward Calvin Hermanson was Saint Mary’s high scorer with 12 points.
• The Gaels have scored only 104 combined points in their two losses this season.

THON STARTING TODAY!!!!!!!

 

[splendidham]

Personal favorite Deng Adel has been pretty up and down this season. I think his stick has probably dropped. Jonah Bolden on the other hand looks like a 1st rounder in the making
