This was a fantastic win. Bigger than the haters will say, but at least the forum will be quite for a while.
Great win!

Quite quiet for the queens whose quacking will go unrequited.
Loved CS's energy as always. Nice to see Cline being aggressive, and great to get that performance from Haas. Big win!
Cline and Mathias are not just spot up shooters anymore.........more well rounded. Hell, Cline had some decent quickness in this game IMO.......I said decent LOL
Huge game , a shame the hiccup vs minny but I'm guessing this puts us right back as league favorite .
I absolutely love this team , not athletic but they have everything else . Quite the roster of different types of players as seen today Haas comes in and is their worst nightmare.
This team is fun to watch and has the potential to go very far. It all hinges on Carson and Vince imo as how far

Yep, good move. Cline was on fiyah.
Favorite play was the fast break pass to the Wisky player too far under the basket and Biggie was first Boiler down the court to disrupt the basket. He had 8 TOs but man did he work hard.
Carsen had a couple of nice pull up jumpers but Dakota had a couple of baskets where he created his own shot too. And after 3 TOs in 1st half, Dakota had only one in 2nd and made nice passes. 7 assists think.
I'm worried about Carsen's me 1st mentality. He has the talent to make his teammates better but he too often tries to do it on his own. He needs to trust the talent around him. Not like HS when he had too. I liked how Biggie talked to him going down the court after his one bonehead play. But Carsen didn't look happy on the bench later on.

I think your concerns are well-founded. However, I think Matt has given him the greenlight and encouraged some selfishness. He may be trying to get Carsen used to scoring in college to pick up the slack next year when Biggie gets drafted.
When he's cold, he does get the muzzle like in today's game. He definitely looks much more polished than the comparable Johnson bros or Bryson in their freshmen year.
and we needed good perimeter defense. Carsen was not good early on D.
reminds me of the Bold Old Gold and Black Big Boiler Buggy Bumpers.......
This is all part of the learning process for Carsen Edwards. He's struggling a little, but I still think he'll win a game or two down the stretch. Big time defense is a lot different, and I think he's finding that out.
Kudos to Ryan Cline as others have pointed out.....hung in there on D, got some boards and loose balls and knocked down some shots to keep the Boilers a working margin.

I love CE, I'm just a little worried that he not lose confidence and or gets down when he has pine time like tonight. It's got to be hard to come from scoring 30 a game and playing every minute of meaningful time to getting sat. I'm glad CMP did it because it was the right move tonight, just want CE to keep his head in it.
Well, I certainly don't think CMP sat CE to "punish" him or anything. He just made a good coaching move. CE has to see that. Besides, I want CE to be mad.....no better motivation to get better. But I think he will be fine. We will all be sad when this kid graduates.
Ryan has added some driving the ball the last two games as he used to do in high school. he is about 6'5" or so and it is great to see him make them play him honest
It seems like he is more down to business. Perhaps getting caught was the fork in the road for Cline. I do not know that of course, and I don't want to drag up that story again........but what ever it is, I like it. I have been, and will continue to be, a big fan of the Assassin. I like the hair cut too LOL!
He did and wisely. Carsen may have just found out that playing against senior guards takes away many of the opportunities his athleticism normally affords him. A good lesson to learn while still beating #13.
