I think that is a tribute to CPK. I think Clemson had a game plan of slowing down Chucky and not letting Reyne get open. I think our game plan from that point was try to see if Edwards could get it going. They did a pretty good job on those 3 guys but underestimated the ability of Hadley and his ability to score down low. There were a couple of times I think he could have scored more underneath or get fouled but passed out. Scott played big and aggressive and we haven't seen his best yet. He's a dunking machine!

Good take. Hadley definitely should've gone up to try to score a couple of those times but passed back out. Still a monster game.

Scott is showing his true potential these last couple of games and the team, especially Chucky, are utilizing him as the lob threat he is. Like the rebounding, defense, and blocked shots too.

Scott has more dunks this year than our last two years’ teams combined LOL.
I was going to say in the last three games alone.

While it's a different hero every night, I swear Chucky Hepburn might be the single most critical part to our success as a team since Dejuan Wheat's senior year. He didn't score last night, but he still gave Clemson fits at both ends of the court.

turns out maybe Coach knows how to recruit players for his system. kinda feels like this is not coincidence. that maybe he sees these kids as slightly polished but still a little rough gems that with some soothing and shaping turns them all into diamonds. versatile, defense first type of guys who are now given free reign to shoot and score, but only when you're the open guy. now they are all learning to trust each other instead of one guy having to do it every night. it's getting exciting and while we're gonna hit a bump or two, i think top four acc is realistic
