Yeah, he is awful. Some might refer to that as "crafty" or "cagey" but it's just punk basketball to me. He flails every time someone touches him, and most of the time the officials fall for it.

I'm glad we don't have to deal with him anymore. And I'm thrilled his last game against UK was garbage.

Not a good look. 2/17 - ouch - 1/7 woops half were airballs
He hit 5 free throws ! 3 typical TO's (surprised there weren't more)

Candy played about a perfect game for themselves and still couldn't close the deal.

Wonder if they will move into a quad 1 win ?
nahhhhhh

Where’s he going? He has 2 years of eligibility left. Might get to beat him 4 or 5 more times.

Probably will hurt him in the draft. Will hurt him because he tried to play with the refs instead of in spite of the refs

You can’t just “go to the NBA”. The NBA has to want you. What does he have that the NBA wants?
I don't think you're giving him enough credit. There is a reason he was the #1 focus of our defense tonight. He has struggled this season because he has had to do so much by himself. I think he will make a solid point guard in the NBA.

I disagree. Not saying he isn’t good, he could play at any Power 5. But he really does not check any box for what the NBA wants in a PG. He’ll get a couple cups of coffee, but he isn’t League material.

If I was a ref I'd call a flop on him every time, if for no other reason than to show his candy *** that he's not going to fool me with that weak sauce. Any ref who gets tricked into calling fouls in his favor should be ashamed.
I'd almost suggest adding another ref to watch players like that but the 3 they usually put out there screw the games up enough as it is.

When the announcers said he shot like 260 something free-throws you knew he was going to be flopping and flailing to try and get more. He shots over a third of his shots from 3 and gets 2 times as many free-throw attempts as Oscar.
I really can't stand how the kid plays. Ball hog at times and gets bailed out by refs a ton. Him and his coach deserve each other.

Exactly. I can't stand that type of player.

One time there he tried to flail and he was actually connected to one of his own players. It was a no call as it should have been, but still, shows where his weak mind is.
On one hand it surprises me because his dad was such a good player and not a punk like that and the era he came from but in the other it seems like he’s lost his mind recently.

Sometimes he actually is crafty but when he plays like the did last night it’s pathetic. It’s the refs fault though, if they would hand out technicals for flipping it would stop pretty quick.

^^^^ This! 1000X THIS! Never seen a “star player“ shoot six air balls in ONE game. Couldn’t have happened to a bigger prick.

Glad to see so many call out this little girl playing total ****** basketball . I was so entirely hacked off , after the T the refs called about 3 calls against that let Vandy get back in the game , put them in the bonus where they got free points . Cant stand Stasckhouse .. he goes nuts on a no call that was clearly .. crystal clear , not a foul .. our guy goes vertical and even backs off , and their flopping shooter cant flail enough to get a call . Man I hate this current version of Vandy . and I think Stack has a little Juwan Howard in him .
