Nick Weatherspoon

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Should have cut bait with him after Tutorgate and signed a point guard... defense was supposed to be his strong point and Tyree drops 40 on him.

He had a bad game tonight and cannot seem to settle in. Nick was really off tonight. The last half was as bad as it can get.

Nick: 0pts 6 TO’s
Tyson: 3pts 4 TO’s

I’m not sure what has happened to Tyson the past couple games but he has really been struggling to provide anything on offense

Past couple games? It’s been all year dude. He had a decent 2-3 game stretch when he got benched. Besides that, he’s a hinderance more than an asset.

 

[Ranchdawg]

Nick has killed this team's momentum. We are done for the year. Time to move on. Men's basketball is toast.

 

[RockKickinSandPoundinSOB]

He played like complete ****. He’s not the elite defender some like to Make him out to he. He literally had one job and failed miserably tonight.

 

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

Spoon is not a outside shooter and Carter has sucked this year as a shooter.
Combine that with average at best D from both o them and well you get what you got tonight.
Plus Ado is a 6-10 liability.
So you have Woodard, DJ and Perry and he can’t do it all himself - but he’s NBA ready now bc he doesn’t play hard nosed D

We were + 2 with Ado on the court. +20 in the first half.

Ado is not the problem. He is our Russell Walters. A decent player, but only as special as the team around him allows him to be.

I 17ing love reading this board. The absolute extreme posts on both sides are comical. They make me feel the slightest bit better after watching that **** show of a second half.

Just a week ago, Nick was being hailed as a damn good around here for his great a/to ratio and how he had figured out the pass first score second mentality so many want in a PG.
Here we are now and he is being ripped to shreds for not scoring enough and we should have kicked him off the team apparently.


I love this board. Absurdism is such fun humor and this place is drowning in it.

 

[pmack3641]

Not defending Nick cause he crapped the bed but DJ was on Tyree for the first half and some of the second. Biggest problem was not knowing how to beat a zone even after half time when your suppose to make adjustments, Howland should know that by now.

Nick isn’t the problem. He’s just not really a PG at this point in his career. We really needed a transfer PG going into this season badly.

 

[philduckworth]

Props to Nick. He owned it on Twitter. He will bounce back.

 

[Seinfeld]

This was a huge oversight on Howland’s part. We have no legitimate PG on the entire active roster, and there is no excuse that could come out of our coach’s mouth that would explain why he didn’t go grab a grad transfer.

We don’t need anything near an elite level guy. We just need a kid that can run an offense, and there were plenty available

 

[tcdog70]

Yes we were **** the second half. Hell , we won the first half. Have Y'all not watched basketball before. Sometimes the ball doesn't go in the hole. And sometimes a dude gets in a zone and can't miss. Hell, the Rebs had 2 guys in a zone the second half. We **** the bed. Ben had no clue for the 1-3-1. One problem is Ben won't run a zone. Sometimes when you can't stop dribble penetration and you have people in foul trouble---run a 17ing zone. Instead of taking Perry and Ado out in the first half(when the Rebs started their run)--leave them in and play a zone to protect them. I think we need a good asst. Coach to help Ben. Carter missed several shots and made some ****** passes. We for sure miss Q.

Yep this. We just needed a game manager from some non P5 school or whatever that can distribute the ball well. Nick is a 2 guard that can get to the basket and finish, because he has a ton of athleticism, but he’s not a PG. I miss his shooting ability tho. Seems like he was money from mid range and could hit also the 3 his freshman year. Now he rarely hits any jumpers at all. I remember seeing a segment last year where he changed his shot. That seems to have backfired, and he was a much better shooter prior to that change.
