JJ ball deflection night

 

[cayin]

Pleta totally fouled

 

[packattack425]

How is that not a foul on Pleta?

 

[madguy30]

Heise chose to miss a 3.

Bench him through March.

 

[blutarsky]

3 turnovers from Jefferson already. Ball is getting stuck with him.

He’s dribbling a little too much. Seems to happen when the team is cold.

 

[cyclones500]

Pleta was fouled twice on that drive.

 

[Cyched]

There you go Pleta

 

[CYDJ]

2 nice fouls there on Pleta. Hard to get 2 fouls like that on the same play. Talent!

 

[cycloneworld]

The offense is really working when the ball doesn’t stick with Jefferson.

 

[twincyties]

Is it me or does Pleta look way more comfortable out there now than even a few weeks ago?

 

[packattack425]

Pleta makes some nice rolls to the basket

 

[FerShizzle]

Pleta was fouled twice on that drive.

He gets treated like a freshman by the refs constantly.

He (and Batemon for that matter) has been developing well for a freshman

I think it looks like the idea is to get into the hoop to put some pressure on the defense to maybe draw a foul (good) but it ends up in a crowd (bad).

There are nights when anything after the third dribble is an adventure. Tonight is going to be one of those nights for JJ.

Yeah one move, maybe two is fine.

4 is down the rabbit hole.

 

[StLouisClone]

Jefferson has 4 assists and 2 TOs. Nice passes to Buchanan and Pleta. Just needs to create with his passing rather than his dribbling.

A freshman with a Student Visa

Death, taxes and Jeff getting stripped in the post
