I know LSU is leaving Bridcoe open, but he just can't keep shooting jump shots when they're not falling. Great shooter's need to shoot themselves out of a slump. Briscoe is by no means a great shooter and his slump has been all season. He needs to rebound, play defense, and take the ball to the hole. He is what he is, at least for this season,
Damn Ulis with 9 dimes at half. He could get 20 if people get open and make shots.
Cane you have no idea what a bash is, knucklehead. Just would like to see Hawkins get some mins and see what happens.
He is the new Skal now that Skal is playing well. Everyone needs someone to bash ( well the guys like Zaytoven and fisher that is )
Briscoe has had 2 good shooting games all season (missouri and UF). Those are what we call an anomaly or an outlier. Take your choice. He's an awful shooter but a magician in the paint. He should be driving the ball. Which, coincidentally is Coach Cal's style but we have turned into this jump shooting team. With our guards we should lead the NCAA in free throws attempted. But we aren't even close to leading the SEC.
This year has been a head scratcher.
The Quarterman Skal call is what is some of what is wrong with the college game. Skal guarding and hands straight up. Quarterman jumps into him to create space and foul is on Skal.
Coming off the floor at half it looked like Cal was upset that Briscoe had the ball instead of Ullis anyway.
Yes they were. I am talking about at shooting . Just watch 4-5 games of Briscoe his senior year and tell me he can't shoot. He was a 35% shooter from 3 and 73% from the line . He is a good shooter nothing more , nothing less. But his confidence had been shot so the players and Cal want him to keep shooting as the other option would be for him to go in a shell. WE need him to score from all areas.
Andrew Harrison stayed at the free throw line doing this. I don't understand it either.
He actually works to step inside the line to take the shot.
Guys like Murray take a step back. To be smart and get the extra point.
It's really only common sense.
yeah briscoe is a guy like murray
you contradict yourself, but by all means tell me what common sense is
you people act like briscoe is out there hunting shots. it's ludicrous
when they are packed in and he's all alone? when the shot clock is getting down and everyone else is guarded? that's typically what it looks like when he's drawing up to shoot wide open after we've passed and probed for 20 seconds.
