LA vs WKU

[UL_Cajuns]

I just don't see Long or Payton in the NBA at this point as many has said. Maybe I am missing something?

If you think Elfrid has a chance of being mentioned in the same breath as Andrew Tony, I'm afraid you're terribly mistaken.

Ok, so you need to go back and read what he posted. I don't think you comprehended very well.

How is suggesting that E look at tapes of Toney suggesting that he is on his level?

elfird is no more an andrew toney than the man in the moon. Bull corn He wishes he was andrew toney he is not a legit first round pick he has never stepped up and took control of a game period

It's simple. Play better basketball. The refs had a bit to do with it towards the end of the first half, but wku went on an umpteen to 1 run between the 1st and 2nd half. We've got some great players and I believe Marlin is doing a good job, but basketball needs to rise to the occasion. Baseball, softball, football, are all representing. Both men's and women's basketball just can't seem to take that next step ( although the girls have made significant strides since the past few seasons.)

raignscotsman you right the girl team has improved alot

This team, needs to continue to play hard and work on going to the basket STRONG, so they can either make the lay up and or draw the foul. Free throws the past two games killed us! How is it these 2 teams shoot the free throws so well and we do not?

Who was it that recently was honored by UL at halftime this season who shot free throws and made them, like with his eyes closed and turned backwards with his shooting hand tied.

This cat should be paid big to come hold clinics with these players of ours so we could pick up our free throws to above 80%! Really, whomever is working with them either is inadequate or does not work then enough. Something?

The people who are laughing at and bad mouthing Payton and Long are complete jackasses. Neither guy is perfect but both guys work their asses off every game. Long works the entire time on the boards and throws himself on the court after balls. Payton struggles at the line but his jumper has actually gotten better - he does need to keep working on it for sure but you cannot doubt how much work he puts in. Y'all are acting like he had a terrible game and he had 16 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. How many times does he create wide open shots for other players?

How about we appreciate the great players we have when we have them instead of comparing them to past players?

Free throw shooting seems to be an ongoing joke. My wife is not a big basketball fan, but has come to games with me for the past 3 years and she even makes comments on our lack of conversion. You almost expect our guys to go 1 of 2. When the fans start giving it to the home team when they miss, you know it's bad. I didn't see the second half of today's game and don't know if it played a factor down the stretch, but the freebies are named so for a reason.

Been saying this since the talk started.
