Gator Basketball ***Official Game Thread BBALL*** Florida vs Kennesaw St

[GatorBart]

Jones. Bonham has played only a couple min in the first half

Not Jones!

Beautiful 3pter from Kowacie in transition off the block

 

[I Have No Friends :(]

Gator basketball is fun to watch again. Great job building that lead back up.

Felder came up big on the D end. Liking what we're getting out of Richard. Looks like he's our best player outside Castleton and Lofton, and he's only a sophomore. Probably Golden's best 'get' so far.
Edit - and he rewards my praise with a turnover.

I'm not watching, but curious who's playing PG with Lofton out. Bonham, Kugel, or both?

Jones and he sucks . Jitoboh just had a great block after Colin got a blow. Lead to a 3 . Like Jitoboh a lot off the bench

Florida is up 80-66 at the under 4 timeout. Jones airballed a 3pter and Richard lost a drive OB

So far he has been passable, but its because when Castleton is in he gets the ball...not much for Jones to do

From the early looks of it, we have a solid 8 with Jit, Kugel and Fudge coming off the bench, and then we'll need Jones as a 9 to help with the point to spell Lofton. Looks like Bonham and Lane and the rest will be getting the mop up minutes.

Best player outside of Castelton and Lofton is Reeves. And I think Kugel is our most talented player, he’s going to be a force.

Florida wins 88-78!!! Castleton with 33 pts to lead the way

Bonham with definitely be getting minutes every game. Just wasn't so this game. Was a little wild when he cam in in the first half. He was pushing for a starting spot much of the preseason apparently

Ya I’m thinking he must be a little TO prone to not get minutes over Jones. Hope that changes

 

[MertzJay26]

Few thoughts:

- Richard is an insane defender
- We have a handful of legit NBA prospects (feels good to say that again)
- Even on a night we didn’t shoot great from 3 we dropped 88 points
- Defense has to improve (it will)

I’m pumped for this season fellas

 

[MertzJay26]

Oh, and FSU is 0-2. Lost to UCF tonight by 14

 

[Gatorbait25]

I like Bonham and Niles Lane much better than Jones. Jones stinks and should be behind Klatsky and the Jack kid .

 

[t-gator]

I'll give Jones props. He came in and handled the ball and didn't turn it over. Unlike Bonham who looked like he was trying to make the and1 mix tape out there.

Nice win, plenty of work still to do.

So they've lost to Stetson and UCF in the first week?

Shocked I tell you, Shocked. This is the first time I’ve ever heard this from you.

Forgive me for my optimism. It’s on me and I’ll get it fixed.
