Just got back from the basketball game


Nov 19, 2021, 5:45 PM

A few observations:

It was a huge game for St. Bonaventure. Their fans were off the chain excited. Our fans for the most part weren't there. Work day, big football game at noon tomorrow and all, but still. We have to do better. The Clemson fans who were there (a few hundred) were very good.

St Bonaventure was 100% from the foul line, we were 50%. There's your game in itself. Also, they shot 58% from three-point territory. They are a very good team who seem to deserve their top 25 ranking. I think everyone in the arena thought it was a matter of time before they made a big run and they did.

PJ was awesome. He well may be our next superstar if he continues to development his game and body.

To me the difference was Dawes. He was having a bad game and couldn't figure out how to contribute. Great players are still difference makers, even on off nights and that's not something he's figured out. I felt like Brownell was setting up plays for him in attempts to get him going, but nothing worked out. He's our general, but today he was a virtual no-show.

I still like this team. Sunday gives us an opportunity to beat another quality team (West Virginia or Marquette). Please consider consider coming to the game if you can. This tournament is great basketball and its fun.

Go Tigers!

Thanks for going to he game. There is no excuse for Clemson to not be represented in the fan base. If you live in the Charleston area you should support Clemson in every way

Sadly Charleston is mostly coots, the Walmart’s don’t even sell Clemson stuff it’s all coot. Local news “covers” Clemson but all clearly are Kocks.

I agree.

Dawes has got to be better. really has not improved that much as a freshmen after looking like he was going to be one of the better guards we have ever had..he needs to ar least score 13 pts in every game for us to win.

He was off in the temple game too. Wonder if he's one of them that are sick. I had posted similar thoughts in another thread.

Excellent observations. He seemed to be pressing and you're right, just nothing was working. Twice (I think) he drove in the lane and forced a couple shots. One at least was off balanced and blocked. Both he drew the D in and both times had a wide open man on the perimeter for a clean 3... It happens. They'll look at the film and learn. Ian, more quality minutes.

If there is such a thing, this was a good loss that'll pay dividends in January. Anyway, as for st bon, came in shooting 22% from 3pt land. Hit 58% but 10 of 12 in 2nd half. Wow. Just tip your cap and win the next one.

Unemployable sounds like coots. Lots of coots.

Didn't see the first half, did Chase Hunter play? Don't think he did the 2nd. He went to the lane a couple times vs Temple making short jumpers. Possibly would've worked to sub him for Dawes during the long drought to try getting to the lane area since no one was dropping 3s.

He was terrible today. Couldn’t make a shot.

Sounds like he and Dawes were in the same grove.

I his few minutes every game, Chase usually makes a bad play


Nov 19, 2021, 7:06 PM [ in reply to Re: Just got back from the basketball game ]

Yesterday, he tried pass across court to Dawes which was stolen. Ben Hall was standing a few feet away who he should have passed to. Today, he missed several short shots when better shooters available. I cringe every time he enters, although admittedly he is improved from last year, but still not good sub.

I stopped blaming the players loooooong ago.

His injuries his first two years really set him back. Just plays way too fast. They need to work on Chase just slowing down by a half a step and might be better. Does play good defense at 6-4 as a bigger guard, but a bad trade off.

Thanks for the summary. Sorry it didn’t go out way tonight, but I’m hopeful this season.

It's a plus to read input from great fans like you.

Thank you for your support and efforts!

NO ONE should be giving up on this team, and for anyone


Nov 20, 2021, 8:29 AM

to do so five games into the season would be ree-dickulous.
