Theo to play. We'll obviously win now since he's Jordan combined with Bill Russell combined with Russell Westbrook

You just cannot let it go with the raider folks. What is it with you? I'm obviously picking up on the sarcasm but if you can't see how Theo makes our team substantially better, I don't know what to tell you.

I'm so excited for the game tonight. You could say, "I'm on Pinson needles." :cool:

So...a poor man's Joel Berry?


I'm excited that Theo is back tonight. Sure, he's not really an All American or anything but he is a guy who will give you solid contribution in pretty much every area on the floor. Plus he has a personality that the team seems to really respond to.
 
Without looking, I'd be willing to bet the opposition has as much to do with those records as Theo's presence.
Well, 2 of the 6 Theo was there for are currently top 4 in the ACC (FSU and Cuse), plus two wins against in state rivals and another against a team that spent time in the top 25 (VT). So while we still might have lost the games we lost without Theo, fact is we are 6-0 against ACC competition with him, and 3-2 against ACC competition without him.
 
Actually, just sticking to ACC opponents, without Theo we are 3-2 with a -3 average scoring margin and that's against 5 teams who are all currently 7th or worse in the conference.

Not saying we are invincible with Theo but I do think even without those numbers, we play better when he's available

Actually, I can't see it. Let me explain. I see that we play better when Theo plays, but I can't quite see why that's the case. On paper, he shouldn't make as much difference as he does, but he does. I probably lack the basketball IQ (insert Hicks joke here) to see why he makes such a difference with this group.
 
Shit idk. I hope like hell this isn't bad. Maybe Luke. I'd be in favor of Theo but coming off injury I'd doubt Roy would.
I think you got to go with Pinson if necessary. I'm not sure how well Bradley would hold up if he got his first start tonight. That's a lot of pressure.
 
If Hicks can't go that means we'll have to play small ball, and that might not be a terrible thing. It decreases our size advantage but we might be better prepared to match up with duke.
