I would love to find it but not sure I'll be able to.  I remember when Kam committed to Marquette the video on YouTube that was easiest to find was Kam playing a king of the court 1 on 1 type situation where the new guy on plays defense and if he gets the stop, he is now the offensive player, but if the offensive player scores he keeps staying on as a new defender comes on.  Kam kept finding his way to the basket and doing these weird angle shots with all different body angles and stuff, and I thought, "Yeah that's never happening in a Big East/high level game."  well...

The one play where he did an inside-out dribble, drove the baseline, went under the basket, contorted his body impossibly and then made the reverse was absolutely incredible ... yet he's done similar many times. I also loved the little 5-foot scoop shot, somehow twisting his body around the defender.

He's Gumby, dammit!

It's not safe to hold a child during an MU game.  My kids know to give me a 10' perimeter at all times.

Quote from: mileskishnish72 on November 19, 2024, 10:56:01 PMWas trying to be low-key but when Stevie hit that 3 I hollered out a whoop.

I was being quiet throughout the game, as mrs pbiflyer was sleeping (east coast), but I let out such a yelp at Stevie's three that she thought I was having a massive medical event. She was concerned enough to call our life insurance agent..... ;D

Perhaps I'm overthinking things but I'm wondering if Stevie should get more FGA's?  He takes the fewest shots in our starting line-up.  He also is draining free throws at a high clip. I like our guards.  A lot.  Although I do want to see ZL and TN grow and gain confidence.

Re Stevie, Scoop has sure come a long way!

Only a year ago, folks were talking about getting him out of the starting lineup; now we all can't praise him enough - and some want him to become a higher-volume shooter.

Personally, I'm an "if it ain't broke don't fix it" guy. Stevie is getting his within the framework of our offense, and we're winning impressively against quality opponents.

And I trust Shaka and Stevie to know what's best.

A year ago? Just a couple months ago, someone said this: "I don't follow this off-season as close as some of you do, but I will suggest Cam (sic), Chase and Ben are the core of the team.... I don't doubt Stevie and David will start but by the end of the season, I suspect Tre and maybe Owens or Hamilton and possibly Zaide will be break-out players."

It took some onions to make that shot. Stevie absolutely knew what was on the line and that if he missed,  they probably wouldn't have another chance.  The entire Fiserv held their breath when he caught the ball.

We've got some great ones on this team

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Except Shaka.  He told Homer on the postgame show he didn't realize that was for a triple-double until after it happened.

Pretty sure everyone else in the Fiserv rose to their feet (if they weren't already standing) when that ball was in mid-air.

Agree! Kam and Stevie were both at the top of the key and Stevie floated to the corner! Felt the same way that shot was going in!

I still think Jop will continue to start.....

Kam and Stewie did a live podcast last night.  Wade called in to congratulate Kam.   Class all around.
