Pickett and Lundy are the only two PSU players who can create their own shot. Pickett is the only one who can create shots for others. Purdue did a great job stopping Pickett from backing his defender down in the paint which limited his ability to create good looks for Funk & Dread.
Watching game vs IU. PSU really struggles to make passes inside. Really don't see many sets that send cutters thru the lane. Live by the 3, die by the 3 to me is not a good offensive philosophy. IU is doubling Pickett and forcing him out of his comfort zone. I think Micah will adjust.
Have to play to your strengths…we don’t have a good inside game so we shoot from the perimeter.
Any info on the big Freshman Lilley? Is he injured or just a project player? Haven't seen him in any games lately.
Agreed. First time I saw him in very limited action early this year, you could tell he brought instant energy and athleticism to the court. Only question was whether he could harness it. For the most part, he has. Fun to watch, and a definite asset on the court.
He seems to be improving every time out. He has the wingspan of a 7 footer and is quick and springy. He handles the ball well and can even run the point. You can just tell that he is feeling more confident with each game. I have high hopes for him. We have a lot to replace next year.
Josh Reaves with more offensive game. Lets hope he progresses as JR did.
So we’re 12-5 overall and 3-3 in conference and we’re out, but WVU is 10-7 overall and 0-5 in conference and they’re a 9 seed…yeah, that makes sense.
Wisconsin was without their best player vs Indy but he's back tonight.
