Average of last two games:

41.5 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.5 steals

vs

24.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 1.0 blocks

yeah, neither of those jump out as being more impressive than the other

3/10/2014 4:18:36 PM

Jabari was awful against Wake defensively too. Lucky he even won ROW... but UNC!

[Edited on March 10, 2014 at 4:26 PM. Reason : Actually Ennis lost to Tech too. Nm. Parker deserved it.]

3/10/2014 4:25:47 PM

Extending those stats a bit...

41.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.5 steals, 1.0 block, 3.0 assists, 2.0 turnovers, 66.7 fg%, 42.9 3p%

vs

24.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 0.5 steals, 1.0 block, 1.0 assist, 1.5 turnovers, 60.7 fg%, 40.0 3p%

3/10/2014 4:55:16 PM

which is why Warren won Player of the Week

3/10/2014 5:04:20 PM

well, no kidding. just pointing out how much more impressive he was than Parker outside of those few stats

3/10/2014 5:08:29 PM

V
Whoops, you're right. i was thinking that Parker was also named co-player of the week. My bad guys.


[Edited on March 10, 2014 at 5:22 PM. Reason : VV Yes, damn you!!]

3/10/2014 5:15:58 PM

^ Parker got Rookie of the Week. My point was part of the bigger Warren over Parker for POY argument

[Edited on March 10, 2014 at 5:18 PM. Reason : a]

3/10/2014 5:17:38 PM

^^
Were you referring to my post before I corrected it? Parker is ROW, not co-player of the week

3/10/2014 5:21:43 PM

^^^ may want to confirm what you're arguing about before you start

it's a pretty good rule of thumb

3/10/2014 5:22:49 PM

arrogant as always
nah man, i ain't got time for that, i'm busy doing other more important stuff.

3/10/2014 5:23:40 PM

just seems a bit odd that you're always so quick to comment on a post of mine

aint no thing, though

This guy was responsible for a Girls episode playlist. Additionally if it wasn't for him, Future Islands wouldn't be a successful band.

oh hey, another one

3/10/2014 5:31:20 PM

Kanye didn't have Warren on his ACC first team

3/10/2014 6:18:43 PM

Warren being POY is our super bowl

One man's tough shot is another man's 60% fg percentage.

3/10/2014 11:31:24 PM

Warren shouldn't have been passing a lot this year.

3/11/2014 1:08:25 AM

That's a pretty interesting video.

I love the guy, but one assist per 30 minutes on the court is pretty bad (or whatever the stat was). He did have a nice one to Dez last game though. He was triple-teamed in the post and swung it out to Dez for a 3.

Also, kind of scary how good a shooter he could be if he'd just fix his mechanics a little. He would be lethal in the NBA with a reliable jump shot.

I saw they moved him up to #17 in their mock draft too.

3/11/2014 7:44:26 AM

If we retire his jersey, would Jules get jelly? Same numerals.

3/11/2014 7:55:06 AM

why would we retire #24? some of our best players have worn that number

3/11/2014 8:04:37 AM

No way would we retire Warren's jersey, maybe if he stayed 4 years and kept up his pace with multiple All-American honors and broke some records.

BUT I could see us "honoring" his jersey and putting it in the rafters. I don't imagine Hodge would have a problem with it, esp. if Warren won ACCPOY like Hodge did.

When Warren shoots 50%+ from the field (leading the conference) can you blame him for not passing more? He is the guy on this team. I don't think we need him passing up many shots.

3/11/2014 8:21:36 AM

If you win ACCPOY, that should be qualification for a jersey honoring, regardless of how long you stay.

3/11/2014 8:46:20 AM

gotta win NPOTY to have number retired.

hoping today brings us news we can have TJ's honored though.

3/11/2014 9:10:11 AM

Just heard on the radio that Jeff Goodman said he watched Warren play in one game this year

LOL

3/11/2014 9:10:13 AM

Warren is a poor passer and doesn't have great court vision. Those are fair criticisms.

He shouldn't be passing more. Outside of a couple egregious misses (the one with Freeman under the basket in that video being one), Warren taking a highly contested shot over 2 guys is a better shot than anyone on our team taking a slightly open shot.

[Edited on March 11, 2014 at 9:18 AM. Reason : we should never retire 24. just give it to our best player every year]

3/11/2014 9:16:55 AM

I think they announce ACCPOY at 1pm today

3/11/2014 10:36:58 AM

American Athletic Conference?

3/11/2014 10:38:22 AM

Oh oops. I swear it said ACC and multiple comments started talking about Warren. I need to stop reading twitter on iphone.

Napier, Smith and Kilpatrick makes sense..

"Fran Fraschilla: Jabari Parker | F | Duke Blue Devils Regardless of class, Parker was the best player in the ACC from the start of the season to the finish. His freshman year culminated with a 30-point effort against North Carolina in what may be his last game at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday night. He is an ultra-efficient scorer (19.2 points per game) and hits 48.7 percent from the field. His versatility makes the Blue Devils very difficult to defend."

Haha, in all the statistical defining factors Fraschilla uses to defend his decision, TJ was better.

3/11/2014 11:48:30 AM

If the start of the season means fifth ACC game he would still be wrong but id allow it. Are we is it supposed to ignore Duke and Jabari's start?

[Edited on March 11, 2014 at 11:50 AM. Reason : X]

in a lot of cases, they work backwards from the answer they want. logic be damned ha.

3/11/2014 11:57:33 AM

The fact is the national media guys went so far all in on the freshman that only Jabari can save them now.

For fucks sake these are the same guys who thought Kentucky was going to be 40-0.

3/11/2014 12:02:26 PM

my favorite tj/jabari factoid:

both sucked ass against virginia and scored single digits

duke won by 4

we lost by 31
