sec159row2 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 what a boob... I like his color commentary but he loves the ACC as much as peter gammons loves the yankees... dickie v's final four... UNC- DUKE- WAKE-and Illinois... he is only taking ILLINOIS because there is no ACC team in that bracket...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Gammons is a Red Sox fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 He's only back on the UNC bandwagon because how much hell we give him for his Duke bias. Although it wasn't much better when he was obsessed with Dean Smith calling him "Michaelangelo". Vitale is the ultimate bandwagoner, and he's latched on tight to K's ass. I don't have a big problem with his picks, he just picked 3 #1 seeds and a 2 seed, I can see all of them making it, I just don't agree with Duke over Syracuse. By the way, I can't stand his color commentary anymore. He used to be informative with recruits etc, now he's just BABY this and PTP'er that, doesn't add a thing to the games. He does however wear out alot of mute buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Yeah Vitale is a homer. Loves the ACC, doesn't care about any other conference. Sorry to any ACC fans, but I'd love to see only UNC get in, because I want Roy Williams to finally win a championship, but I don't want Duke or Wake to get in.

He does however wear out alot of mute buttons. I think what Vitale does best is promote the overall game of college basketball. I have no doubt that his enthusiasm is for real. But he is no longer a great analyst. The "cheerleading" has just gone too far and I don't feel he really offers very much good information as an Analyst. I think he is good for the game overall, but more in an entertainment/promotional aspect than a serious analyst. I just think he has taken his persona over the top to the detriment of his ability as an analyst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter Parque Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 (edited) How many people can make a comment about JJ Redick without actually seeing him? He doesn't play any defense? Why don't you ask Rashad McCants if JJ Redick plays any defense. And how is he no the best at what he does? Salim Stoudamire is definitely not a better player or shooter then JJ Redick. Stoudamire has taken less 3 pointers then Redick, he also makes less 3 pointers a game then Redick, he's not better then Redick at free throw shooting, and he plays in a conference with the likes of oregon State, Washington State, California, USC, and Oregon.

I think most people have seen JJ play, as Duke is on TV all of the time. Odds are that more people have seen Reddick play vs McCants or Stoudemire.

It sound to me like, thos types of people just get their info from what they've heard, rather then actually seeing them play.

IlliniKrush Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Butter the problem is that your just way too biased on this. Believe it or not, there are people on here who have seen JJ play, many times. This includes myself. JJ is good, but he is not the best player in every facet of the game like you make him out to be sometimes. His defense, no matter what you think, is not amazing. And yes, he gets away with shoulder drops and push offs plenty in the lane, whether you see it or not. He's not the only one. But to say he never does is just ignorant.

Palehosefan Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Redick 115 out of 276 3's at a .417 clip, 93% FT, .410 FG% Stoudemire 110 out of 213 at a .512 clip, 91% FT, .512 FG% So lets compare. Redick has 5!!! more made 3's on the year, while taking 63 more 3's, has a 2% higher FT average, and .10% less in FG%, yet Redick is the better shooter? OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK then.

Let me go out on a limb here and say that you probably don't agree with my opinoin and think that my opinion is pretty idiotic right? How arrogant and condesending!

I have seen Redick play tons of times, because Duke is on TV all of the time. I haven't even offered my opinion on his play, or that of any of the other players that were mentioned. I have just watched you claim how badly Duke fans get treated, meanwhile calling other fans ignorant and the like, and figured that you should see that you were acting just like the people that you were calling out.

Because, I haven't watched him play very much. So I won't put out an uninformed opinion. But your response was lame. That's what I was referring to.
