THERE YOU GO JAMES ROBINSON FANS, AGAINST A TOP TEAM DOING NOTHING

[KiwiJeff]

I've always wondered about your handle. I took it to mean you are someone who enjoys taking pokes at Pitt. Hard to believe someone prone to such emotional overreaction could be much of a poker player.

I've wondered the same thing. Cards get dealt. What, a 4 and a 9?????!!! Oops, I mean, check.

This Poker guy is an idiot. Wow. What an immature goof.

Horrible shots, turning it over. And everyone got excited because he put up 18 against Kent State.

Nice senior leadership.

Lazy passes from everyone, Artis doing squat, 1 and done, 1 and done. Can't rebound. Sigh...

And I thought we could win this game. Wow.

You are a donkey. He was one of our best players last night. The guy gave his all.

Robinson was by far our best player tonight and is just as good most games. He really only started becoming a good shooter last year though, which is odd considering how people though he was so much better as a freshman when he could only pass the ball. He is still a great PG as far as assist/turnover ratio is concerned, and now he is shooting the ball well. He seriously could not be less of a problem for this team.

Young was by far our best player IMO. But Robinson did play very well, perhaps the best game I've seen him play. But his assist-to-turnover ratio was 4:4. Which gets to the crux of the whole Robinson debate: if you like his increased assertiveness and improved playmaking, in all likelihood, particularly against teams like Purdue, it will come with the price of a less favorable assist-to-turnover ratio. For me, that's fine.

I still question Robinson's court vision, particularly in the context of him being a "great PG." He made a great pass to Young for the dunk, and had a few other nice passes, but he also missed several passes on the break, including Young once in the 1st half for a sure dunk.
