You can't be serious. Brunk has had some outstanding games this year. He's had a couple subpar games in a row. He's been a contributor with a hard nosed attitude and great hustle all year. There's no reason to dog the guy with emotional rants.If Archie doesn’t start Thompson in his place in the next game he should be fired on the spot...

For the record, Crean pasted a 28-0 run on Belein at Michigan one time. 25-0 at the end of the first half and then a 3 pointer to open the half. https://iuhoosiers.com/news/2016/2/2/MBB_0202161318.aspxWow- give up 16-0 run in 4-5 minutes. That is why my confidence in CAM is so low.
Brunk was playing defense against a guy who can put it on the floor, or shoot it. Brunk is used to playing defense in the post, i.e., flat-footed. It's problem enough in the post, but when he's on the perimeter playing defense flat-footed against a guy who can slash or shoot . . . nothing but a mismatch.He shouldn’t start the rest of the year...

I don't know whether Brunk playing on the balls of his feet would allow him sufficient lateral movement to play perimeter defense, but if he's asked to play out there and isn't ready to do that he shouldn't be on the floor in that circumstance . . .
. . . but that doesn't mean he's worthless. It's a match up problem for the specific circumstance, not a roster decision.
K.I’m not saying that he can’t contribute, just that he should not start...

As this team is currently constructed, I like Brunk starting. Brunk seems to have of energy at beginning of the games and gets early points and rebounds. Thompson has a different type of game and provides energy and effort coming off the bench. With Thompson's Injury History and current level of endurance, let him come off the bench and provide 25-27 minutes per game, and let Brunk manage the rest of those minutes.The point being that he shouldn’t be a starter. I forgot that many folks on here can’t deal with hyperbole.
It depends on the situation ala the personnel on the other team. Brunk is effective against certain players. What Thompson has over Brunk is speed. Notice in the second half today Brunk got burned twice by faster players hence he didn't play again. Let's not give up on Joey. He is important to this team.If Archie doesn’t start Thompson in his place in the next game he should be fired on the spot...
With all the idiotic comments, I am not going try to guess who is dumb and who is a drama queen going overboard.The point being that he shouldn’t be a starter. I forgot that many folks on here can’t deal with hyperbole.
I wonder if he could halve been sick?With all the idiotic comments, I am not going try to guess who is dumb and who is a drama queen going overboard.
We won. Brunk's 6 minutes didn't cost us the game.
