WarEagle1983 2,185 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I wish AU had guards like Shead and Cryer. We need guys that can go get you a basket or finish at the rim or dish it off when needed. March is about defense, rebounding and good consistent guard play. Teams go far with those three things. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if anyone in our conference plays up to the opponent quite as well as they do That was one of the reasons I preferred Florida in the SEC championship game instead of Tamu. Dude can coach Edited March 25 by e808 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,797 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Btw guards. Wade Taylor, Radford, that lightskin kid (Garcia?). Houston has incredible guards. Gotta have the guards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus a big reason we lost. I know a big focus is on CBM. But guard play wins you games in the tourney. AU and BP should know that from 2019. I need my bigs to rebound and defend. Guards are going to win you games in the tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U don’t expect many points from the guards just hope they manage the game Edited March 25 by e808 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,797 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Incredible game. It’s hard to evaluate that a guy has “it”, but Buzz knocked that out the park with Boots and Wade. Unfortunately Wade still has eligibility left I’ve just found out, so I guess he will continue to torment the SEC for another year or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAG-91 1,486 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Held on to that one with scotch tape and baling wire...UH got off to a good start in OT and that was enough. They're a mentally tough bunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a fan since 88' and watching program that's won titles, I've seen the guards that have lead them to those wins. They certainly didn't soley manage the game. Ben Gordon, Kemba Walker, Ray Allen, Rip Hamilton, Khalid...list goes on and on of guards that showed up big in March. Auburn should be getting top guards left and right. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
