I've thought about this before...why not retire #24? Hodge, Warren, Googs, Burleson...pretty impressive

3/9/2014 8:18:41 PM

I'll appreciate him more next year as a junior

3/9/2014 8:22:07 PM

I'd appreciate him even more in a San Antonio jersey playing for Coach Pop.

3/9/2014 8:27:09 PM

I'm watching behind with about a minute to go. Warren's an assassin. I've been searching for that word since last year, going on about his "composure" and whatnot. He's just deadly.

And we've all known he was really, really talented. It's obvious. But it's just gotten more and more ridiculous every game.

3/9/2014 8:28:03 PM

if he loves State, he'll come back

3/9/2014 8:28:25 PM

LOL, all the cool kids are doing it.

3/9/2014 8:30:02 PM

Warren's NBA stock went up tonight like tenfold. i wouldn't be surprised to see him projected lottery pick as of this week easily.

3/9/2014 8:31:09 PM

as a scorer in the nba at his size, he needs to shoot better from long range and the ft line.

Warren asked if he was aware of what Parker did last night: “It was all in my mentions about that, a lot of trash talk from their fans.”

First player with 40+ points in back to back ACC games since 1957.

Appreciated.

3/9/2014 9:18:39 PM

Goodman is one of the top-5 trolls in sports media

3/9/2014 9:22:46 PM

30 points is Parker's career high

That's just a slightly above average game for TJ

3/9/2014 9:23:26 PM

Hell of a way to go out tonight....assuming that's his final home game. Maybe an NIT home game if we don't pull off a miracle in the ACCT.

Back to back 40+ point games...setting career highs in each. Unreal.

3/9/2014 9:29:32 PM

Parker has 29 against Boston College and Warren had 36 against UNC so....

3/9/2014 10:03:29 PM

I don't understand the argument that TJ shouldn't be ACC POY based on the success of his team. It's player of the year, shouldn't have anything to do with how well the team is doing. It's just blue bias.

3/9/2014 10:20:58 PM

^yeah i don't like that argument ("where would team X be without player Y") as measurement for how good a player is. But that being said, Warren is by far more valuable than Parker.

And I can see why people would vote for Parker. But not if they're using the same logic Keeley used.

honestly ... how many times has warren been ~50% of our offense ...

to say someone has had a better year ... meh I disagree, but you can have your opinion.

to say anyone else is more valuable to their team ... that's just a fucking asinine statement.

3/9/2014 10:31:56 PM

when is POTY announced?

I do feel like a lot of media i've seen have come around to TJ. Hope it's enough, dude had an amazing season.

LOL

3/9/2014 10:42:12 PM

It's just ridiculous that he's not getting more attention for his season. Confirms the media bias against state. This is a really bad team that he carried to a .500 finish.

I still think he goes late lottery. Kid is just way too good

I said it weeks ago.

Put the guy who is going to be NPOY on our team. Do we play better D? Nope. Do Cat Barber and Des Lee still have dumb turnovers at the end of crucial games? Yep. Are we any better? Nope

We'd be a pretty awesome team with TJ Buckets and Doug McDermott

3/9/2014 10:53:41 PM

ok, fair point

i meant trade tj for mcdermott

although I think it would interesting to watch a mark gottfried team play defense with warren and mcdermott as your 3 and 4

[Edited on March 9, 2014 at 11:01 PM. Reason : but the offense would be ]

mark gottfried teams don't play defense.

3/9/2014 11:02:29 PM

Kinda sick to think of all the near misses we had from guys who woulda made us a tourney team and an ncaa contender with all of them
.

Randle, amile, and Montrezl were all pretty nasty.

Bojangles woulda helped a lot. Purvis woulda kept lee from leeing us to death. Harrow woulda kept lewis from lewising every game.

Who was the jump big man we lost to the northwest? He do anything?

3/9/2014 11:07:53 PM

harrell was ours if he didnt get cockblocked by acc rules. i'm going with that one, especially since he was blocked from us by a metro conference school so he could go to a conference usa school that we'll be in the same football division as next year

after that, hiring Lutz instead of Gaudio. With Gaudio we'd be playing some form of a packline defense (it wouldn't be great because Gott would still be in charge and our guys would probably still leak out and try to get hopeless offensive rebounds, but better than the garbage we do now) and we likely don't keep Lewis during the coaching transition as IIRC Lutz vouched for him.

syracuse fans are idiots so it makes sense their media are too. these are probably the same people that thought amare was a legit mvp candidate and the knicks won the melo trade

Pretty much any ACC media member can vote. Which lends itself to people who cover one team not really able to fully evaluate players they've only seen play a few times compared to players they've seen every single game. It's an imperfect system...but whatever.

3/9/2014 11:38:29 PM

There are 120 members of the Atlantic Coast Sports Media Association who vote on all the conference awards

Can't find a list to them though. They're like some kind of shadow government, like The Company in Prison Break
