      slippery pete lmao to say Taco Falls can move like some one 6’6” is ludicrous 😂 he can only somewhat defend the 3 point line because of his insane length and wingspan. He has very limited mobility. What gave Duke trouble is having Taco at the rim (at the center of the zone), doubling Zion and RJ and make the rest of the guys win the game by shooting the ball. The Blue print is out as far as how to beat Duke. MSU will bounce them

      @@mbj920 I guess you are referring to DeLaurier getting checked out of the lane which gave Dawkins that tip-in opportunity or just that shot-clock violation that was ruled otherwise? Just saying that those calls went both ways.
      As for Dawkins--outstanding game. He was not just scoring the ball--but he was doing it very efficiently on 12-18 from the field, 5-7 hitting the three and 3-3 at the FT line. He also added 4 assists and 3 steals to that stat line while playing all 40 minutes!
      The problem with giving him coverage is that it was just one performance and he's been a bit inconsistent this season... he had a monster 36 pts vs Temple but had only 7 in the game after and 5 pts in the game prior to that. Along with a modest 14 vs VCU in the first round of this tournament. Really good looking player and, if he returns, should be poised for a big senior season--he's laid the foundation to get covered next season.

      And you do? He was a high level football player but he played ball too. His brother was a basketball recruit and he's been around sports all his life. I think he knows

    Zion’s “clutch game?” Get out of here with that. He missed the game-tying free throw and got bailed out by RJ. You can keep talking about his 32 points but they wouldn’t have mattered had RJ not grabbed that rebound.

      (*^-‘ ) 乃 Really? So sticking it to a 7"6' center at the end of the game isn't clutch?

      If you just watch you'll see Tre Jones couldn't a shot cam was struggling but did manage to hit a clutch so was RJ zion carried these guys yas he did miss the free throw but any one that watch the game will tell if he wasn't for Zion that game would of been done way before the 2 pt mark
