Is South Carolina's point guard part rooster??
He is Kidd. But damn he has to get better setting screens. He was what we call in officiating as a "screen/contact seeker". In other words, he's chasing screens , instead of setting them.
I have a question for you. In the UNC game (not sure if you saw it) they called a foul in the first half. Called it on DeVoe but it was clearly on Thomas. I mean, there was nothing to debate when you watch the replay. He was the only one close and clearly committed the foul. So Roy told them to look at it and they said 'ok', walked over there and looked for about 5 seconds and said it stands as called. There is no reasonable way they actually believed that but kept it the same. Tbh, it ended up helping us more than hurting because DeVoe shoots threes and Thomas doesn't. Anyway, what reasonable explanation is there for this? Was it just kind of like a 'screw you, I told you who the foul was one so ain't changing it' sort of thing? I was under the impression they could change who it was on.
Would like to see South Carolina play UVA. I mean, wouldn't actually like to see it but would like for it to happen.
Refs fall for the flop every time. What a fvcking joke.
Here's to less free-throws for both teams in the second half.
Loving what I see, really wish he didn't get injured and had a few months under his belt already.
His court vision is amazing. He's better at finding people and pushing the ball than our PGs it seems.
I didn't see it Cory. My guess---and that's exactly what it is, is they(officials) didn't see anything convincing enough to overturn it. IDK. I do highly doubt it was b/c of a "screw you" reasoning. I mean not totally out of the question....But doubtful.
Note: I've had plays like this occur. Went to monitor, and though it looked as if the foul could've been on someone else, the evidence wasn't the clear, and it didn't show the player I called foul on, NOT fouling. Lot of things play into that.
Hope that helps.
He's going to have to run the point if SGA keeps plowing over everyone.
I agree. He did extend, so that is what got him in trouble. But, yeah---I didn't like it.
Yeah, that isn't it. I mean, the other guy never come close to touching him. There isn't any way they could have possibly thought it was on DeVoe. You could also clearly see the contact on the other guy. I think they just took a token look at it but didn't really pay attention. Anyway, no biggie. Like I said, helped UNC in the long run.
Impressive, really. His first few minutes he played as if had taken a bottle of stackers, and drank 7 Mountain Dew's. But after that---he seemed to calm down.
Very true. And officials recognize this. A player who's playing out of control, balls to wall, is more apt to get a tick-tack call like that, go against him.
UK will come out swinging I the second half, if SCar can stand the first five and keep it close without foul trouble, we got a shot. Talent will separate itself to some degree but the key is to hang around until five to go.
Ya got me wanting to see the damn play now-------
Yeah, it certainly won't be on any highlights. It was a pretty irrelevant play as it was pretty early I think. I just found it odd. Wasn't an anti-UNC sort of feeling or anything.
SEC officials must believe people want to pay to watch free throws
LOL....Officials call fouls---------fans bitch. Officials dont call fouls----fans bitch.
Killin me smalls....
Kentucky going zone has hurt USC. It's not really that the zone is that good, either. USC is getting really good looks out of it. They just cannot shoot.
