Cards Survive Scary Dieng Injury, Rutgers 3s
The takeaways from this game are the two big guys: Dieng's scary writing and Chane's monster afternoon. Still let the other team make too many threes and hang around longer than we should have, and Kyle didn't play great.
Can't wait to watch video of Chris Smith's left handed "dunk" a couple times a day for the next 5 years.
Everyone send good thoughts to Gorgui's ankle. Gonna need it Monday night and keeping this season on track requires a healthy, productive Gorgui Dieng.

Chane's game was unreal today
Was really cool seeing them all smiling and having a good time too. Air Louie busted out some crazy dance moves during a commercial break too, definitely a dark horse for game MVP.
Every time I see Air Louie
all I want is a straight pin.

Stats show that Chris Smith had 9 rebounds in the forst half and Gorgui had none. Can this be right?

Seemed like I remember Gorgui having one the first half
He started off pretty slow for the most part. The air got sucked out of YUM! when Gorgui hit the deck, was not good.
Yeah, we still turn it over way too much, and many are unforced.

I remember at least three passes going right through Kuric's hands,
and going to Rutgers or out of bounds.
By my count there were 10 turnovers in the first half.
Ware owned 3 of them.

Ware was horrendous
Lost his guy on almost every defensive possession, turned it over with the weakest press we’ve seen all year, missed lay-ups and telegraphed passes or made pass decisions way too soon

I agree, but for now I'd rather have Bullet in there
Justice is less likely to make a play but he’s much less likely to turn it over. And since Ware isn’t even making plays, I don’t see how we can live with the mistakes like we did with Russ earlier in the year. I’m looking forward to Ware’s future but right now, damn Siva, quit getting into foul trouble
Absolutely agree
I waa screaming for him during the game. I’ll worry about which one should be in next year. This year it’s Bullet even if Ware is a better athlete.
2 BIG FAT FOULS.
3 rebs, 2 assits a steal and 10 pts. GET OFF

Are you saying Ware had these stats?
We are talking Justice verses Ware, not Siva. Me thinks you are too centered on Peyton.
do you THINK Kev had did these things in the game?

Yeah, I was talking about Ware/Bullet when Siva needs a spell or is in foul trouble
The comment about Siva getting into foul trouble? yeah, it’s warranted. He’s in it almost every game. Sure, he only had two fouls, but they were in the 1st half in only 5 minutes of play. In his defense, though, I thought his 2nd one was pretty cheap
referring to your last sentence in Ware post
by GOCARDSATTITUDE on Feb 5, 2012 12:01 AM EST via iPhone app up reply actions
What I said is
that at this point Justice is a better backup to Siva than Ware. I also believe what you quoted as stats are those of Siva but it seems as if you are saying they are those of Ware. So I have no clue why you are telling me to “GET OFF.” I never said a single word about Siva.
And additionally I think you may have my comment confused with that of uoflcard.

In my family we call Kevin "Bambi"
and once he learns to walk and dribble he’ll be fine.

If the shooting can just improve
we all of a sudden have a lot of weapons on the floor. A couple weeks ago I wondered if we had ONE weapon on the floor. If Kuric gets out of this slump and CS5 gets more consistent from three…look out.
Jeff Goodman is trying to put his foot in his mouth, but Gorgui keeps blocking it.
Kuric found the range late
Let’s hope it continues into the UConn game.

About to dribble it off of his knee
I’m sorry, I’ll leave Kevin alone now

I didn't even read the caption
That was the only picture available on the SBNation post editor to use from the game. Wanted one of Chane but it wasn’t up yet, for some reason.
WE REGRET NOTHING.
Sat in the most awesome seats I've ever been in tonight. I was so fucking pumped

omg...
Eating straight out of a cooking pot, while laying around are 3 fast food cups and 2 fast food bags and a fork on the floor? Doesn’t seem to bode well..
McDonalds is NOT just "fast food" as you say.

FW heard some talking about Shawn Bananaman
and he got hungry
Just fair warning, do NOT watch the ESPN.com highlights of this game
The lady commentating butchers Chane’s name the worst I have ever heard
CHAY-n BEE-uh-nin
Wow.
That had me rolling.

She's pretty bad.
Inconsistent too. She once pronounced it Chain Banana Hand.

Rutgers AHC David Cox on Chane:
“Two things that killed us were Peyton Sivaās penetration and obviously, Blake Griffin (Chane Behanan), who had 100 rebounds today."
"Chane gave an outstanding effort. Iāve been in the BIG EAST now as a coach for six years and Iāve been a BIG EAST fan for 25-30 years. I donāt remember seeing a rebounding performance like that. He got every major rebound, he was 6-of-6 in the first half and he was just a man among boys."
Good game guys.
Keep it up! Come a long way from a month ago!

i was happy to see Angel Nunez in the game………… thanks Coach P about time now give him more play time……….
Dieng Doubtful for UConn Game???
wtf? Shi^!
E. Crawford of the C-J tweeted Pitino saying Dieng could be doubtful for the UConn game. Hopefully they ice the shi^ out of that ankle all night and it doesn’t swell too bad. We really need GD for UConn. We really need him for every game. Hope it’s nothing serious. Though with our injury luck…aarrghh
Okay, end rant. Holding a good thought…

Paint the Husky mascot yellow & convince Gorgui it's a lion.

Flagged for misspelling Dieng
Not really, rec’d for awesomeness.

Please accept this substitute as we truly regret the error.
I’d like to say it was a subtle ding(Dieng?, Jang?) at all the grammar cops, but it sadly wasn’t at all.
It's been a while
since the Cards have had a big man that was a legitimate threat.
I cannot believe that Gorgui and Chane are where they are in their game. It’s incredible. To think about them suiting up for the Cards for the next 3-4 years just blows my mind.
Just imagine a game when Kyle AND Chris are dropping them, Peyton/Russ are just average and Gorgui and Chane are doing what Gorgui and Chane do.
I am excite.
