Quote from: LeftCoastCats on February 23, 2024, 12:12:40 AMReally impressed with the kid as of late, but 2 points in 17 minutes won't change a whole lot.

Boswell is a concern but Bradley doesn't seem to be to the remedy.

Best case, Bradley's increased minutes matches Boswell's production and Boswell sees a huge drop off in confidence?

We were making fun of Hurley for his recent lineup changes in February - this seems even more reactive.

Boswell's failures, especially early forces Love into Hero Ball mode.

I like this assessment. I was watching and shaking my head everytime Love shot a 3. I was thinking he needs to drive.  I feel the he's better at getting into the lane than he is at shooting the 3. I never contemplated that he's largely being forced into it.

This team will go as Bos goes. AZ is not a good enough team to beat good teams without a good pg performance.

Interesting. I wonder if KC Cat ignores stuff like this.

Bradley shot 3 of 8 with the same boards and gave up significantly more points on defense over the two game span.

Jaden scored 10 pts with 5 assists - in 8 less minutes.

Bradley is the #9 player in the nation in BPR (which rates the overall value that a player brings to his team when he is on the floor) on Evan Miya's list.

If 1 of 3 for 2 points, 2 boards, 2 fouls and one turnover is good enough to be a top ten national player, then I guess college basketball has taken a sharp decline.

You are hopelessly in love with Boswell. I don't know why anymore. You must really love the thought that he could become a 6 game hero, but you are disrespecting anyone and everyone else on the roster that can very well do the same thing if given a chance.

KansasCityCats

I look at the team with a neutral perspective. I don't search for the guys on the bench and cry about their lack of minutes because I'm not the coach. They're likely not playing because there's an issue at practice.

Regardless, I'd love to see somebody step up at the PG position and earn the full time role. Neither guy on our roster deserves 40 minutes so I'll just sit back and continue to enjoy another top-10 season.

100%.  CTL is going to stick with Bos to the bottom of the sea.  Frustrating as heck

After Boswell spit in the face of Tommy and the team today? We will have to see about that. This kid should be on a 1 way trip to Boise St
