Duke/UNC anyone?

[UTvol1fn]

i'm just saying UT hasn't done anything special. When bragging about wins over Xavier, a down Gonzaga team, WKU and UNC-Asheville are wins to hang your hat on, I'm going to laugh at you.

OOC play is over and it is conference play now....

let's get off the boards thing. we win a lot without winning on the boards.

Nobody said Tennessee has done anything special. Conversely, telling me how I'm "full of it" because I'm not overly impressed with Duke's out-of-conference was a little excessive.

They play a slower version of Tennessee's game. and there is 0 denying it.

What I'm saying is that Tennessee's game is #1 tempo. Thus, if Drake is so completely opposite in the #1 aspect, then it's similarities, and nothing more.

Ahhhhhhhahhahahahha

Oh I'm super impressed with their 70th ranked OOC schedule.

Why aren't you? :crazy:

Duke can't even beat the ACC bottom dwellers on the boards.

But they did beat them in points scored

Where is emain for posts like that? He'd be in heaven.

Their tempo may be really slow in numbers but even Bruce's teams have had tempo's in the 60's. They average 70+ a game.

I never once said your statement about crews is useless garbage. Again quoting out of context. you'd make a great gossip reporter Stunna. But you certainly have spouted a lot of useless garbage in your time here.

post after post of bragging about beating SEC bottom dwellers on the boards is proof enough. Again though, the MSU win is somewhat impressive.

How am I taking it out of context? You scoffed at the statistics I provided and rendered them "useless garbage." MSU and Bama are some of the best rebounding teams in the conference. Again, Hendrix and Gee are NBA quality.

Drake does not average 70+.

His head might explode with all this logic being thrown at it.

 

[dickens821]

Drake does not average 70+.

They average 73.7 a game.

Did you switch to points per game without saying so?

 

[dickens821]

Ahahah yes. That's what I meant. Their tempo is around 63 or so. I just meant they are pretty high scoring.

 

[dickens821]

This thread needs to be nuked. Fast.

Was it necessary to quote that?

Thanks for clarifying - I was confused. Drake is efficient. Just for your info, though, here are the raw tempo numbers:

Tennessee - 74.1 possessions per game, 8th nationally
Drake - 63.3 possessions per game, 300th nationally

I know the numbers. They don't run as much as us, but they run a very similar offense and defense. Like I said, a slower version of Tennessee.

We'd run them off the court. They have some GREAT shooters though.

no comparison

If you've seen them play there is a comparison.

 

[therealUT]

Are we really comparing UT and Drake? And, why???
