Game 28: @Marquette

I would love to see Trimble open up his game. He's been primarily a spot up shooter but last night he got out in transition and even made a nice little baseline floater. Want to see more.

He's a freshman though and it is not like he was a 5 star immediate impact freshman.  He has had a typical up and down freshman year for a player of his caliber.  Not bad though, hopefully he loses a little weight and develops more to his game than just spot up shooting.

Trimble needs to lose a little weight, maybe 10, but not too much.  He is playing well at his current size with the exception of being a bit slow defensively.  I agree that he should be getting more minutes.  He certainly showed us something last night.  A guard with some bulk is needed to guard strong opponents.  He ran well last night playing 32 minutes, never looked winded.

Despite looking like the Notre Dame mascot that Rowsey kid is a really good college player and can shoot. How did Duke miss out on him? Seems like the perfect annoying Duke guy.

Didn't see all of game. What I saw wasn't pretty. Give up 50% 3s to Marquette on the road and this will happen. Really think Simon needs to be used more inside the arc.

I was wondering why Ponds was the zone buster  at the top of the key and not Simon. If simon can ever learn to shoot reliably he will be dangerous. Hope that's a big focus this offseason.

As far as Ponds being the only reliable scoring option, it does seem like both Dixon and Williams have the ability to find their own shot. Hope that is the case in BE play, will be crucial to success

Who ever thunk we'ld have a game THIS year where Trimble was our best player?

Can't complain about what he's given this season.

Compared to Oedipus, he's Joe Dumars.

Dylan should be beyond criticism based on sheer body of quality work.  Same as coach Mullin.

Agree. Dylan Thomas was one of the greatest soprano sax players of all time.

Not better than Shorter.  Maybe better than Beefheart.

Ok, I'll play.  Who do you like besides Rollins ( not Henry ) and Brecker ( not Randy )?
