hsmith19 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Yeah, it's only 37 total shots, but Roby is now shooting less than 22% from the field and less than 10%(!) on two-point attempts. Just brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just brutal. Roby leads the team in assists with 23 and has the best A/TO ratio at 1.44. Bartley is 1.29, McBroom is 1.18 and Reynolds is 0.85 for the primary ballhandlers.

hsmith19 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 He's still turning it over more often than either of those guys. Too much, especially considering how bad he's been shooting-wise. EDIT: I was just looking at it on a per-minute basis. In terms of TOV%, McBroom is at 13%, Roby at 28%, and Bartley at 30%. Yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB73 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Last night's lineup of McBroom, Crawford, Yacboubou, Yarbough, and Gillmann/Manning needs to be the go-to lineup down the stretch this season. Gillmann if you need more offense. Manning if you need more defense. Nailed it. And Crawford should play the most minutes, he has the best court awareness on the team, makes the offense flow, and is a legitimate threat for 3's to compliment AM. He looked high potential last year and if it is true that his illness slowed him down earlier this year and he is looking better the last few games, then that is even a stronger point to consider him for much more action. And Manning helps more than his stats and more than some of his brutal critics realize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is just a brutal rebounder for a guy 6'11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmith19 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 ...Crawford should play the most minutes... El Oh El. Crawford for offense, Agbeko for defense. This team desperately needs somebody who can rebound. Otherwise I agree with the lineup above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbofive Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Manning wouldn't get critized as much as he does if he would just rebound even a little. He is just a brutal rebounder for a guy 6'11 i like how he shoots 39%, too. if i were only 3 feet from the basket, i'd do a little better than that. gotta call a spade a spade. but i'm still pulling for the guy. he's all we've got for a upperclassman big man.

Dwayne's_World Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Manning wouldn't get critized as much as he does if he would just rebound even a little. He is just a brutal rebounder for a guy 6'11 Manning has very small hands for a 7 footer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Lots of people are going to become fans of Crawford now that he's healthy. Losing 10+ pounds in a short period of time will take its toll on anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing 10+ pounds in a short period of time will take its toll on anyone. Agreed. I will admit, I was among those who prematurely judged him this year without knowing what was really going on. Maybe Reggie will also start to show up once the mask comes off, and maybe Tanner will pick it up as well. The sophomores are key to us being a very good or very mediocre team next year.

His work at the line last night was excellent. If he can keep that % up, he's going to get some minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Manning should be a better rebounder but if he can alter shots in the post and knock down some free throws, he'll be a good complement to Gillmann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff Man Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Interesting stats on the (still relatively) young season Reynolds has 31 made FTs with only 6 made FG. McBroom is 24-47 (51%!!!) from 3. 12-46 (26%) from 2. McBroom has ONE fewer made 3 than the rest of the team COMBINED. Yarbrough is 28-46 (61%!!!) from 2, 1-6 from 3, 15-31 from FT (48%!!!) Ash is our leading rebounder (4.5 RPG), followed by Yarbrough (3.9), Roby (2.8), Agbeko (2.6), Manning (2.6), Gillmann (1.9) For reference, here are last season's rebounding averages: Evans 6.5, Loe 5.7, Glaze 4.5, Jett 4.0, McCall 3.8, Barnett 2.8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
