Plav's Shot Selection

[b]The post guys didn't get a chance to set up 95% of the night[/b]

They got plenty of chances. Eddie missed several layups and Withers missed two dunks. Sure Withers was double and triple teamed, but he has to be good enough to get rid of it so somebody else can get a good shot. If our inside guys can’t finish and keep from turning it over, they don’t need to keep getting it every time unless they’re going to get to the charity stripe. Our frontcourt turned the ball over way too many times last night. That, coupled with the easy ones we missed nearly cost us that game.

Plus the refs didn’t like Curts footwork. Everytime he moved they called a walk. He was gun shy.

[b]Plavich winning the game with that shot is just killing you guys that dislike him so much.[/b]

This statement is absurd. Just because I think he is the ‘great white hype’ doesn’t mean I root against the guy. He is still a Niner. [/b]

Oh I love your comment. Is your conscious bothering you pi? Don’t think anywhere in my post that I mentioned any names but you come to defend your usual idiotic position. As you would say (and maybe you have reasons), that is the gayest thing I have ever heard!

But since you mentioned it, in the majority of your posts there is somewhere a negative comment about Plavich and if not him its Lutz.

For you, it was also interesting that you didn’t find something else to argue about my post…hum, maybe it is true. But nope, the only thing I see is you defending yourself when you were not specifically mention. That tells me something.

Have a Merry Christmas pi and try to enjoy a Niner victory.

How can you say he is overrated? We all know the good and the bad with him, but he is the best option we have and that won’t change. Did we say he is 1st team all conf.? Did we tout him for player of the year? No, we just don’t think his is bad…unlike you. Shut it. He’s family.

Hope you were ready for that reply 49er. You are allowed to state your opinion, but only if it hews to his opinion. Otherwise, you are to be criticized, called an idiot and a refugee from some type of home. So much for freedom of speech.

Lefty said he would be the best shooter in the history of Niner basketball. :rolleyes:

[b]Shut it.[/b]

Oooooh. Someone’s getting angry.

[b]And I will refrain from your tatics of name calling (however I am sure there arm many that fit you), I am much more mature.[/b]

Oh really? How about when you called me “idiotic”? Hypocrite.

Put the ball in the seniors hands when the game is on the line, Eddie and Plav, I think the coach has it figured out, it is college bball.

I believe he called your position idiotic. :slight_smile:

You may have answered that yourself…read the post…I think it clearly states “your idiotic position”. I am sure that I was taught that in that sentence idiotic refers to your position, not you. But if you want to consider it as saying you are an idiot, thats is you right.

Hypocrite? Do you even know what that means?

He isn't our best option, at least I don't think so. Leemire shot 50% from the floor. Sure, I don't want a freshman taking the last shot, and that's not what I'm saying.

What am I saying is, Plav is just a part of our team. Bobby gives him too much a free hand because Bobby believes that same thing, that Brendan is our best option. Plav on fire is almost unstoppable, but regular plav is our 3rd best option. All too often he gets treated as our best option.

Bobby needs to reign in Curt too when Curt is playing poorly. Bobby has a tendancy to let certain guys “work through” slumps.

I love watching our team play, but this has just been a hard team to watch this year. I am frustrated with the whole team, as I’m sure many other people are. Eddie played like garbage for most of the game. He was great on Wright (when he guarded him), but he also shot 2 or 3 3pts when it was obvious they weren’t going in.

I think the best part of this game is, we hit FTs when they mattered. Eddie and Plav were both great at the line. I seriously hope that Plav gets over his slump, because we will need him to be money at the line later in the season.
