Dandridge needs a fresh start. You could see it in his face all year. Almost like he’d lost his love for the game. I hope it works out for him.

Maybe Dandridge was just taking it upon himself to change the play---the same way the guard did more than once in the season.

The poster said thats what "likely" cost us the win. Regardless of the screen or not --with seconds left --if the guard doesn't make the stupid cross court pass----and just dribbles to get fouled --we win the game----or if he just passes up the court to a wide open player we win the game---or if the refs give us the T O we win the game.

MD was told to do a specific thing, he didn't, we lost. You're saying there is no correlation, the poster said that a correlation was likely. I agree with him.

And KD was told in several games to do a specific thing and didn't do it.

As the primary ball handler, you’d think KD has much more freedom to improvise. Especially if a play isn’t developing as expected. MD had one job. Set the pick.

Can't have it both ways.

Either player follows specific instructions or they don't.

Can't condemn one player and turn around and give another a pass for doing the same thing.

Your answers to the two questions you “asked” are (1) you insinuate it with the question, and (2) you disparage the whole board by your posting your simpleton nonsense. You have your answers.

Such a shame because he did have skill. Just lazy. Some people just don't realize the opportunity they have in the moment. Maybe a change is best for him.

Yep, he didn't look like the game was fun for him anymore.
I think the injuries have worn him down. Especially hard with all the local chatter he probably got.

I hope he goes to a smaller school and has a great year.

I won’t call him lazy because I don’t have any insight to his work ethic. What was obvious is that for some reason he was never able to get himself in shape. Chicken or egg scenario to me.

Did his injuries prevent him from ever truly getting in shape? Or, did a lack of work ethic and refusal to train and get in shape lead to his injuries?

Exactly my question - with Dandridge and Kao gone, what big man do we have for next year who is better than either of these?

Nice post !!! I agree with you as I think you always have that injury thought in the back of your mind even after one has healed.

This is a thoughtful, nonjudgmental post that kept me from deleting my account here since this post has basically turned into the essence of this board (strangers arguing to prove a point to who knows who, and basically, who cares?).

Anyone who knows anything about movement analysis and functional movement has seen that no coach or trainer has ever helped MD with moving in a way that will help him not only achieve peak athletic performance but to also live a long and healthy life. Most of you all don’t think about that…who will this guy be in 20 years from now? I noticed a long time ago that MD’s knees buckle in towards each other when he runs, jumps, and lands. Until that’s corrected, no amount of surgery is going to give him long-term success in being able to move without pain. He doesn’t move in a way that uses his anatomical support, and he’s a big guy which will compound things.

Oh but I digress. Let’s go back to arguing over stupid stuff and calling each others names and then eventually turning it into something political…

This is a real good post. There have been plenty of games where I was frustrated with MD's performance. I have been a little critical of him at times.
But, he is a Tiger who gave us four years. He gave us some games where he was a tough SOB in the post.
Many of you should be more respectful.
Good luck Malcolm!

HUH ? Upset ?----My posts have been to point out (IMO) that a lack of a screen is not the reason we lost the game-----rather the reasons I listed.

Lmao you just made my point. You loved Josh Pastner and anyone that left dear old Joshie was a “WHO”. Yet you make excuses for a guy that even a home line Wolo said was a problem with listening to coaches. Smh
