official: SCST vs UW game 1 on the road to the final four thread

They look better. Hopefully Romar can sign this entire class too.

It's a good thing that this south carolina whatever couldn't beat the current Rainier beach team, but hey, who's counting

I still don't think this team is good but they do look like they understand what they are doing a bit more. Last year every game they looked clueless besides NWG.

They have a glimmer, which is about 10k light years away from last years squad.

However, problems remain. Can't shoot, can't shoot FT's, and penetration is suspect at best. I'm looking deeper into the schedule than this horrid excuse for a team they are playing. When we toss up another 25 missed 3's b/c we can't run a zone offense than we'll see what happens......
 
Hey, if we're going to look for some positives, kemp actually looks competent and hungry. Granted, any time you're talking about our bigs vs these smaller schools it makes me laugh. the reason they are smaller schools isn't b/c of guard play, it's because of bigs. So doogs will be loving how great our guys look right now
 
I'm amazed how a university with 30,000 + students can't put more people into the student section than your average high school pep rally.

Have you been to UW lately?

No. Maybe. I don't know i've been blacked out for about 8 years now.
 
Holy fuck. whoever coaches this South carolina team is a joke. These guys play worse than some city league teams i've seen. They jack up the worst shots ever
 
And NWG could be an all time great for husky bball if he stays around for 4 years. The kid just has it

You take Goss over IT, Nate, or Conroy?
 
Robert Upshaw is putting on an absolute clinic. I know, I know, South Carolina State... But we finally have a big man that A) can get down the floor B) Play defense without fouling and C) has something other than cinder blocks for hands.
 
I'm just trying to clarify what Chavez means by 'all-time greats'

I said, "if" he stays 4 years he could be an alltime great for UW. Which yes, puts him in line with those that you mentioned. He is going to be a monster in college and hopefully has a few people on the floor to join him. i'm not convinced he stays more than this year. Either way, hes not at those getns level yet, but he is in game 1 of his 2nd season(so essentially 3 years left) to mold his legacy. I like his chances
 
Solid inside, solid at PG, formula for success.
Can't shoot can't win though, from what I saw tonight we lack outside shooters

I would take NWG over Conroy. No to the other two, but I'm with Chavez. NWG is really good. NWG was on a US team with Marcus Smart, Aaron Gordon, and a bunch of other really good players and NWG held his own and played well. He wasn't a 12th man. He was a solid contributor for the team. He was also the best player for Findley Prep, who is a top high school team with tons of talent.

Last year, there was the debate about him going pro. He wasn't close to ready, but he is/was as good as Tyler Ennis from Syracuse, who was a first round pick. The only difference was Tyler Ennis played on Syracuse and NWG played on dreckfest UW.
 
Shooting is a big fucking problem. We need at least two guys that are credible marksmen to fuck with the zones that every team is going to run against us.

We definitely look like a more balanced team (against fucking South Carolina State). It's refreshing to see a couple big men out there that actually look like they know what they're doing.

 
All this talk about shooting & marksmanship...
