^^ It reminds me a lot of Zo in 2012. He turned it on mid season as well and really changed our team

Zo was never a good 3 point shooter, and he was awful on defense. Go watch some game tape of him on defense and you will cringe. Cat's defense is mostly solid and his 3 point shooting has taken a leap in the second half of the season.

3/12/2015 12:42:28 AM

He's unguardable at the college level when he's making threes

3/12/2015 12:53:27 AM

^^ Well yea, im not saying they are the same player or the game is the same. Im just saying they are both point guards who had huge improvements that corresponded with our team winning more games.

3/12/2015 1:41:08 AM

That's called a jump stop.

3/12/2015 10:40:34 AM

Zo was an amazing distributer and unbelievable on the fast-break. He could finish well, but just not great.

Cat is more of a play-maker with the ball in his hands, and is developing into a better shooter/finisher.

And they're doing the same thing with Wash. OMG HEZZ GONNA TRANSFER

3/12/2015 10:49:30 AM

Washington did seem to not give a fuck yesterday. When he was trapped in the corner and Gott used a TO he basically just walked to the bench, an asst had to guide him towards the huddle. I wouldn't be surprised if he's already made up his mind and has checked out. But maybe he was just mad that he got trapped

3/12/2015 11:21:21 AM

I think he lets his emotions get the best of him. He was probably super frustrated that he's in the game, has an opportunity to prove he's worth the playing time, and then Gott has to waste a time out. Probably not how he envisioned that going. But he did have some good moments.

3/12/2015 11:25:47 AM

yeah he had a really great pass to abu.

3/12/2015 11:26:45 AM

The first time he caught the ball he looked like was about to jack up a bad shot but realized "oh fuck, I'll get pulled" and backed off instead. At least he's learning lol.

3/12/2015 11:27:59 AM

Yeah, I think he wanted to jack a 3 and Lacey was like "no, NO, gimme the ball" and he reluctantly did

3/12/2015 11:32:25 AM

Let's be real though, he's probably gonna transfer.

totally saw that as well

3/12/2015 12:36:30 PM

Washington just needs to play with more patience and composure. He's obviously got some skill, but it's negated by his spazzi-ness.

Back to Cat -- I kept asking myself last year how this guy broke AI's scoring record in high school. These past few weeks have shown how. When he's in the zone and hitting shots, he's unguardable.

3/12/2015 2:14:55 PM

and i have a feeling that he didn't get a lot of his points from jump shots in high school, he probably just blew by the defense on almost every possession.

Please be ok

3/12/2015 8:55:41 PM

from the replay, he didn't look like he hit his head on the court, but i'm not sure if he could've gotten concussed from the contact with emilia jefferson. wonder if he bruised his Ribs

3/12/2015 8:57:04 PM

it looked like he ran face first into jeffersons shoulder

plz to not be concussed

3/12/2015 8:58:30 PM

Even if concussed, he has a week or so to recover. I just hope it's not something more than that. Fuck Amile Jefferson though.

3/12/2015 9:49:37 PM

Gravely said the concern was NECK

3/12/2015 11:07:02 PM

honest? neck cancer?

Get better soon Cat and come back aggressive. Maybe Tyus jones is a good defender but Cat had I think one drive tonight. What's up with that?

3/13/2015 1:07:18 AM

He absolutely cannot go right

3/13/2015 6:59:39 AM

I don't appreciate how he and Lacey played especially shitty defense last night.

I was screaming to put Lee in, because he couldn't have been any worse.

3/13/2015 8:43:39 AM

3/13/2015 10:27:27 AM

Cat really got mugged last night.

It's not like Lee would have been our savior. The game was over long before you were screaming like a maniac.

Good to hear that it wasn't a concussion

HONEST

[quoteyou were literally screaming at the coaching staff through the tv?[/quote]

You must be new to nc state fandom. I'm pretty sure my eye level, wall mounted TV has some spit drop marks on it from the yelled ref/coach/player instructions I give each game

3/13/2015 9:08:31 PM

He needs to come back and tear it up in the NCAA tourny by driving to the basket for the layup or a nice assist for a dunk by our big men.

3/14/2015 12:53:55 AM

LOL, afripino won this page.

cleared to play and named to the acc tournament second team.

Really need Cat to take over this game. PG is the one spot we seem to have a big advantage against LSU.

If NBAdraft.net is any indication, Cat's play lately has been getting a lot more attention on the next level. They've currently got him listed as a 2nd round pick in next year's draft (2016): http://www.nbadraft.net/2016mock_draft

FWIW, I think he can go much, much higher than that with a solid year next year. His speed and length has to be intriguing to NBA teams, and he's got a really good-looking shot when he gets set. Just needs to keep developing as a playmaker.

Yes. Yes I was.

I was pleading for the wonder twins + Lee lineup in the first half.

3/16/2015 2:44:31 PM

Cat is (fortunately for us) still flying under the radar somewhat. If he goes Pittsburgh on Nova I still think he becomes a flight risk, however. NBA guys know about everyone and I'm sure there's a team or two out there who like him a lot but they're not going to go public with it because then the entire league starts paying attention and your Jimmy Butler at the end of the first round is playing for someone else.

3/16/2015 2:50:32 PM

point guard who can't shoot in the nba?

3/16/2015 10:28:11 PM

3/17/2015 7:56:37 AM

Cat's a much better shooter than Zo.

And he can average 30 points a game during the tournament, and he still aint going pro.

3/17/2015 11:38:14 AM

speakin of zobo, he played 16 minutes Sunday night and finished with 6 points, 7 assists, 2 steals. He played 18 minutes last night and finished with 0 pts(0-5 shooting), 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block, 1 steal.
