that’s how you start a half

I don’t want those memories. I think he has a little more talent…but but certainly he isn’t as refined as I’d like.

I think we’re gonna have to live with plays like that bungled fast break. It’s a trade off I can live with if he produces like what he gave us in the first half (8/5/1 on 4/5 shooting with 1 TO).  
 

Plus that first step burst is going to be big when the offense slows down and we need someone to create. 

Parker gaining confidence by the minute 

Kopp’s shot selection, especially when it’s not a stationary catch and shoot situation, is gonna give me heartburn

Playing like it tonight too

He’s adding nothing right now. Would rather just stagger minutes and keep Race at 5

I’ve been waiting for these X and KL combined minutes. A lot of playmaking but let’s see how they play off each other

Why have I have the feeling this seemingly slow pace is by design? 

I thought we’ve been playing pretty up-tempo so far

Aggressive X can be a difference maker

Anything you heard specifically? His social media is pretty barren so it's nice to hear if he had anything good to say about his visit?

Not beyond what’s probably already known. His visit went well apparently, there’s no clear favorite, Woody has been involved in his recruiting closely, etc. 

But the biggest thing to me is that Kenya is the lead on him. And to be honest, I just have a ton of faith in him closing a wide open recruitment right now. 

Looks like he went from unranked to #22 in 247 rankings

I got a good feeling about this one..would be a huge get.

You could say the same thing about Pat Ewing.  I believe he was on Dakich and said he was baffled about how he was struggling so much with recruiting.  That he hadn't been able to pull a single player out of NYC despite being arguably the most famous Knicks player ever.  Kids in college care about getting to the league.  How many guys you put into the league is what matters not how many you've coached in the league. 

Doesn’t make me feel great about  Ewing beating us in the Aminu recruitment 😂😂

Kid is a stud. Lock him up baby

You can listen to DGL talk about his freshman season, IU, and more.

Do you expect an IU offer soon? Am hoping we get out early and strong on him and Hooks..

Any word on Emoni Bates?  There's been a number of articles that are comparing him to Lebron.  I hope Archie has at least reached out.  Seems like a long shot, but if we don't get him I hope Archie is at least going down swinging.

If I could I would put the crystal ball in for Adam Silver and Rod Strickland right now. It’s not worth it
