Joe Mazzula: “Gotta go back to the tape after that game and figure some things out.”
*inserts dvd of The Town for his millionth viewing”
This is like a 75% Izzo
“To their credit, they’re playing well above their means,” Celtics guard Jaylen Brown said. “They’re ballin’ right now and I’ve got to give them respect. Gabe Vincent, Martin, (Max) Strus, Duncan Robinson, guys that we should be able to keep under control are playing their (a*) off.”*
I feel like that’s a reverse Izzo. he said they’re playing their booty off, which Izzo would never concede.
i guess “well above their means” is the bad part now that I reread. that’s def an extremely backhanded compliment. I’ll go 50% Izzo
Yeah, he’s actually insulting them…arguably worse than “crotching a shot in”
dude is down 3-0 and his guys are just not showing up and he’s still got this at the ready. impressive.
At least he has his priorities straight.
I’m EXTREMELY amused at managing to give a team beating you 3-0 bulletin board material.
No, Izzo attributes things to luck. This is more like “we’re getting outplayed by guys we think we should beat.”
more “Guys who are bad are lucky to be outplaying us,” as I read it
for a team that OBVIOUSLY thrives on it. just not ready for prime time. like, this team isn’t any different than the one that handled their business and just didn’t have enough creation in the Finals last year.
EDIT: Fact-checked below. Ended his Big-East career in the Big East Tourney.
What’s wild is that this team took the Celtics to the brink with the same guys last year!
Love a tweet that is completely false. Kentucky ended Mizzoula’s career.
Not to mention that giving Jimmy Butler any bulletin board material seems…ill advised.
the Lakers will get swigatoni swept tonight
Lebron with 31 in the first half. Think they’ll survive another night.
The ole’ gentleman’s sweep
Lead has quickly evaporated
The ol’ standard rude sweep
The Scoundrel’s Sweep.
