My WHOLE point is Pedulla has played too many minutes at PG

Especially with teams who have a great on ball defender. It’s not anyone’s fault (except Rice) I’ve always defended CMY and him adjusting to allow someone NOT guarded by Beekman to initiate the offense was brilliant; that by default took a good number of minutes of PG responsibilities and out them on others. It just so happened a large part of our run was without Pedulla on the court because it did make us a bit better defensively matchups wise FOR THIS GAME without Pedulla in for a bit All of that made Sean more comfortable not forcing stuff when he was in there and he didn’t force things or turn it over Again…brilliant by CMY. If we can figure out the right amount of Pedulla at PG and away from point like that worked out it’ll be even better We NEED him to play PG and to score and we NEED him to shoot better vs. competent offensive teams but maybe that comes when he’s not completely worn out by having to face the other team’s best in ball defender constantly for 35+ minutes

Beekman was on Pedulla**
sideline guy 02/19/24 09:06 PM ET
Right which is why he shouldn’t play PG
hokiepro 02/19/24 09:10 PM ET
Lol….he’s had some tough games with a lot of TO’s because he’s played 30 or
Femoyer74 02/19/24 09:46 PM ET
lol. I left off…vs UVA with Beekman guarding him.

Offense seemed to play better with Collins running point.**

Let's say VT moves Pedulla off the ball...

Did you watch the game? Because we DID do that quite a bit

Sure he’s a good basketball player he’s not a natural ball handler or
hokiepro 02/19/24 11:13 PM ET
And play someone worse instead...

WOW GC, you were right! Even after a very nice win, the hoops lice came out

Did I mention you specifically? No. You're only paranoid if you think
ancient alien 2018 02/20/24 02:23 PM ET
Oh I don’t know
hokiepro 02/20/24 04:48 PM ET
When did I say bench him?
hokiepro 02/19/24 11:56 PM ET
You don’t know much about basketball do you **
sideline guy 02/19/24 09:15 PM ET
I know plenty bud
hokiepro 02/19/24 10:10 PM ET
The offense under this type of system does not require a distributor at PG
