About the reaction I expected from Allbuffs with the way the game went. That was a decent win against a team that will win more than they will lose through the season. Not Duke but also not sisters of the poor. Need tough games at times and when you win, it is a good win and help builds for later in the season. Mission accomplished vs the Spiders.

Unless you're a true BBall blue-blood, November can be a real adventure.
Charleston in 13, won that one, too
Two!
I think he has planned on being here 2 years.
He seems a little tentative at times., but I think he's just feeling things out at the college level. I expect that by mid-season, he will be lighting it up, be a huge factor.
It’s kind of been his game and style. Sort of like Derrick White. Casual, calm, disappears at times, but can turn it on. I’m hoping he grows more and more assertive as he develops. The game he had against Milwaukee is that version.
Nothing to see here. Tad has talked about Cody's maturity in knowing that this team belongs to guys like TDS, KJ and Hadley and that he's fine with his role and learning for a bit.
Sure. But watching game film in high school, the McDonald’s game, US team, he is smooth and a bit reserved. Nothing bad, just reminds me of Derrick White sometimes. And White has become a star by gaining confidence and becoming more assertive in the NBA. I also think guys like Cody and Derrick White see the court so well that they sometimes come off as passive.
In the last five or six minutes of the game we stopped having KJ initiate the offense and Cody started doing it. We quickly got the lead back up to 6 and looked a lot better offensively. KJ knocked down an open three as a result of Cody's dribble penetration and kick. We are a much better team when KJ can benefit from Cody being assertive. Luckily KJ did enough on his own in the second half to keep the lead.
Today will feel like a road game but I don't think FSU is as sound defensively. Add that it's the second game shooting on the same hoops and I think we'll score a lot more.

Conversely, we regress when Hammond is running the point. Which is why we're seeing Cody as the #2 "PG". Cody and KJ are a great combo.
Cody's defense is not getting enough credit. Kings or whatever was making circus shots and Cody broke his magic down the stretch.
Yeah, really liked switching Cody and his Go-Go-Gadget arms onto 2, when KJ was resting. Really changed up what Richmond was getting each trip. He's so much better defensively than I had even expected.
This whole team can defend like a pack of wolves. A pack of wolves that can avoid the whistle.
Watching this team play defense is fun

Interesting game in that CU never really had their offensive mojo going but got significant scoring from KJ and TdS. Both hit critical shots. KJ is just amazing in getting to the basket with tall defenders around the rim. Getting to the free throw line and making a high% of them got them over the finish line. CU's defense was solid despite Richmond hitting very difficult shots in the second half.
Felt that Lampkin's Jokić inspired pass to KJ for a layup was the play of the game.
Anyone else have bad flash backs thinking about the last time CU and FSU faced each other on a neutral court?

Selective amnesia is my friend
He’s a superior D White, if he can continue his defensive progress (he’s got the lankiness). Kid is going places.
We need to come out with more energy. I thought Richmond was a lot more intense than us.
Tad said that the FSU coach consistently recruits the same physical type, "long" guys. If you fight 'long' with 'long', I'd like to see Diop or Dak get some minutes.
I hope there are 30+ fans there, who have adopted Colorado as their team, since CP got here. Crowd should be very FSU.

Don't we owe FSU a beat down for knocking us out of the tournament a few years ago?
Definitely
KOA: FSU has 91 fouls in 4 games. They don't worry much about fouls - their players are interchangeable. They will be coming at us hard.
One thing about Dak - Tad met with him several times to talk about red-shirting. Dak wouldn't hear of that - he wants to play and he and Diop are coming on strong
