maybe their fans will taunt JP and he will go off on them in DC!

Agree completely. I think we'll see lots of offense/defense subs late in games in marcholdhoopster2 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 04, 2018 11:40 amNice that the younger guys can defend and we have the option to go to them for stops. If we needed a stop in a final possession to win, wouldn’t need JP or Tre to be out there. Best defensive team would be Jones, Gates, Marshall, Scruggs and Goodin. IMO
Both he and Tre and tremendous defensive liabilities. JP plays great help defense, but individually, he guards his man straight up and goes for the steal too much. X and Marquette are in the running for worst defensive teams in the conference, with Creighton not too far behind. The difference is X has the athletes to be much better. They've always shown the ability to pressure other teams well, but CM very rarely does it.I could understand it if they guarded well in the half court, but their best D is simply outscoring the other team. If they play Duke in the tourney, it could be a 300 point game.
Does that make the win a "freebie"?
