Bowden's shooting

[whobethis16]

Shoots 41% from 3, just under 80% at the line, and averages 3.6 rebounds per game as a SG.

So you’re wrong.

He's shooting under 75% from the line. That's not "just under" 80%.

 

[wmcovol]

He played well against Tamu and UK.. so

2 games out of about 20 vs top level competition.

 

[114VOL]

He is a good defender/rebounder but he needs to be told not to shoot. Plain and simple, he is a liability on offense.

I think it's just confidence or maybe he changed something with his form/technique...either way, he will knock us out of NCAAT quickly if he is jacking up bricks

That's crazy. His form is fine. Lots of balls are going in and out on him. He needs to keep shooting. I'm sure that's EXACTLY what Barnes will tell him

 

[114VOL]

He’s just not that good vs top Sec teams normally. Probably more a CUSA player.

Another one who should be praising the first amendment.

Rock solid ignorance

 

[114VOL]

I was trying to be nice...I've said many times he shouldn't be playing at all

lol:


As if you have the first clue. He's been starting since day 1 of his freshman season. Forgive me if I trust what Barnes is doing vs. what you think he should be doing

25-8. SEC regular season co-champions and SEC tournament runner-up.

So you’re wrong.

You have to be at least a cousin at this rate because your homerism is strong.

Nah, Fleece is a regular poster. He just loves Bowden like Thunder loves Fulk.

No facts, but a lot of arrogance.

6 rebounds in the last 3 games, 23 percent shooting since vandy..am I wrong on those stats, if I am I apologize.

 

[FleeceItOut]

My bad. I was looking at his career % of 78

 

[FleeceItOut]

6 rebounds in the last 3 games, 23 percent shooting since vandy..am I wrong on those stats, if I am I apologize.

So we are just going to pick the time frame we want and use that to prove the argument?

Johnson will have his minuites next year... Most of them anyway hopefully.

 

[FleeceItOut]

2 games out of about 20 vs top level competition.

Again, go look at his numbers. It’s more than just 2 games. Those were just the first 2 to come to mind.

He scored in double digits 15 times this year.

 

[FleeceItOut]

Not at all. Never met the guy.

It’s not homerism. He’s had some bad games but that doesn’t define him as a player and it shouldn’t diminish the good he has done.

 

[FleeceItOut]

Nah, Fleece is a regular poster. He just loves Bowden like Thunder loves Fulk.

Haha I don’t love him that much. I just don’t like when people rail against Bowden one night, and praise him another. He’s very streaky and a lot of that is mental.

He isn’t trash and he shouldn’t lose a bunch of his minutes. People just take everything to the extreme.

I’m not saying he is the best player on the team but I think he has been crucial to their success. Just look at his game logs.

When he's on, he's on. But when he's not, he's really not. There's no in between with him. He needs to realize that when his only bucket is a 15-footer, he needs to not be shooting, especially late in the game.

That’s fair.

I just know he sucks when we need him most.

 

[FleeceItOut]

I just know he sucks when we need him most.

He’s sucked in games and has been good in games.

 

[Dtj64]

I hope he turns it around, but I think better talent on the bench is coming for his minuites.. Just an opinion fleece, don't hurt me... Lol

 

[tnvols72]

Bowden cannot afford to shoot like crap in the NCAA Tournament.

Surprised Barnes hasn’t given his minutes to someone else.

this is what I dont understand.

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

At one point in the game, the camera went to Bowden and he was grimacing a little rubbing his shoulder today. Anyone else catch that? Any word?

 

[tnvols72]

I just know he sucks when we need him most.

which is quiet often. Bone isnt much better when shooting.

Bone had 36 in this tournament while Bowden had 13. That quite a bit better.

He hates Bone as much as A-Rod hates Fulk.
