RowdyZip Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 That dunk, to me, was surprising. Not because it occurred, we know he's capable, but how effortless it looked. I think Reggie takes a big step forward next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Keith put some plays in for Reggie and he was working very hard on offense trying to get open. Good to see that happening. I really disliked the offense when Reggie and Jake just stood on the wings. Would still like to see more back door movement with Reggie and Jake for some easy inside baskets. Reggie has really benefitted from the short rotation knowing that he coach will let him keep shooting till he finds his touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Reggie takes a big step forward next year.It would be great to see him continue to make moves like that, because (as you say) we all know he's capable. I do seem to recall him making a similar play (baseline dunk) last year against WMU when the Zips were running out to a big lead. Does anyone else remember this, or am I confusing it with another game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone else remember this, or am I confusing it with another game?It happened in the second half before we hit our scoring drought around the 11:00 minute mark.

zippy5 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 I'm pretty sure he dunked in last year's MAC tourney. Not sure which game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyzip84 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Duh on my part - if I would have read the article carefully, Reggie states that his last dunk was against WMU in the tourney last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Z Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 I've wrote multiple times on ZN (as others have), that I would like to see set plays run for McAdams. It's finally starting to happen. So last night Frenchy asks KD about it after the game, and KD responds "Yeah, if the head coach would have gotten his head out of his rear end a long time ago we could have been doing this all along." For those of you that continuously write "trust KD", or "KD knows better than you", you might want to consider that some ZN members have the ability to evaluate and discuss things that might be good ideas. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been alluding to the fact that his guys are playing with more confidence knowing that they're going to get their 20+ minutes. Maybe some were right in stating going 11 deep isn't always great.

akronzips71 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 There is only one guy on the team who probably could not play 40 minutes if he had to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave in Green Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 I trust that Coach Dambrot will be right on basketball strategy most of the time because he's proven over many years to be a darned good coach. But I don't believe he's right all of the time because no one is. Fans who lack the training, experience and knowledge of a good coach are wrong most of the time on basketball strategy. But I don't believe they're wrong all the time because no one is. Congratulations to every fan who gets one right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what keeps some from expressing their thoughts here. Instead of giving up, I remind members to use the ignore members posts feature instead.

skip-zip Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 It was vs WMU in the tourney on the same basket tooIt was actually an Alley-Oop style dunk on a backside cut, not a dribble to the hole like he did last night.Yes, that was right before the drought.
