Buford

[BigTime]

Have a game! Playing with confidence and making shots.

I saw the ghost of David Godbold on that shot clock ending 3

Dude needs minutes from here on out! No matter what is going on he needs to play. Spangler is hurt or worn out. Cut his minutes down and lets build of this.

Great game and again I'm not too upset. We have 2 losses and both I think make me feel better about this team which is weird, but these games show we can play anywhere and with anyone.

As his confidence grows he will give as an added dimension on offense. I think he has a quicker first step than most fours that will guard him. Eventually we will be able to isolate him and let him get to the rim.

He played well and was not a liability when playing in a very tough environment against a good team. He earned more playing time.

He was a liability?

He was a liability?

I think he accidentally put him on the wrong side of the ledger. He has played very well the past 2 games and we needed him both times.

Buford and James really have done well for us the last 2 games. Gotta really hope they continue their growth so our guys can get some rest. Love their potential.

He was a liability?

I think he meant was not

 

[RyanMinorFanClub]

I'm glad to see him start to get things figured out. He was the one I was most looking forward to out of the new guys at the beginning of the year. I hope this game is the starting point of constant solid contribution from him.

Was not. Typing on my phone. I went back and edited it.

He played really well tonight. His offense is going to be there on most nights and he will eventually learn the defensive side (switching, movement, etc.) as he gets more playing time.

 

[MercedeSooner]

1 thing I really wish Buford would concentrate on is defensive rebounding. He has the ability to really make an impact there, he has a thicker body then both Lattin and Spangler and could really create some space there if he committed to it with his athleticism.

Great game by Dante. He's going to be huge down the stretch. I love his aggressiveness around the basket. About the only thing keeping him from major minutes is defense and rebounding. If he cleans that side of the ball up even a little he'll be a key piece to OU's run in March.

I do that all the time. I think faster than I can type.

I'm to wound up and disappointed to proof read tonight

Dante had an awesome game tonight! I told you guys he could shoot from three. :woot

I'm just the opposite.

 

[hoopsaustin]

He had a outstanding game tonight but let's see some more of that before we declare him fully ready!

I hope he can drive some and score in the post. If he could perfect one post move and improve that drive, he will be a very good offensive player.
