  1. He needs to direct that ire on the team … guys like Hunter and Disu gotta show every game, Abmas needs to play smarter, and our bigs can’t be embarrassed on the boards like that at home
  2. Run a fucking play … the offensive sets the past few possessions have been pure ass
  3. Motherfucking refs need to start calling number 11’s shoving, moving screens and elbows
  4. He’s an undersized volume shooter whose defense, floor generalship and ball handling have not been good so far … definitely struggling with the step up in competition and the expectations … he’s trying to be Steph Curry and needs to play more composed and share the rock when he’s got a man in is face He’s shown a few flashes of being able to step up when needed but he needs to focus on improving his defense and ball control, and providing a smarter, more consistent floor product In many ways the same can be said of Hunter, but I believe Hunter is a way better defender and much faster with the ball.
  5. Abmas needs to wake the fuck up … he looks like a skittish freshman out there
  6. Twice Abmas left the same shooter wide open and got torched
  7. That screen handoff by Disu worked very well at the end of last season… would like to see more of it.
  8. He played that about as well as possible against a bigger man with no help… great play by the shooter
  9. What the fuck?
  10. He’s been sort quiet this game …seems a little slower than usual
  11. So they’ll double and ply tight on Disu at the end of this one … someone else will need to hit a couple shots to win
  12. And his defense is softer than soft serve ice cream on a hundred degree day
  13. Abmas with several turd possessions in a row
  14. Need to punch back here
  15. He could butcher the name worse!
  16. Let’s go!!! Good energy so far.
  17. [emoji50] Disu!
  18. Disu showing … need Hunter and Mitchell to bring it.
  19. Horton covering their number 1 scorer who has like 6 inches on him is doom
  20. The lighting for this video feed is like low quality I’ve seen when Lamar university plays at home on espn +
  21. It's a weird combo of things in my opinion. Our guards are inconsistent and outside Hunter well below average on defense and ball handling (and Hunter's not a great ball handler). The new pieces are still a work in progress far as meshing and complimentary basketball. Our stud portal transfer is still getting used to higher level competition and is a bit less polished as far as shot selection and being able to get teammates involved than we hoped. There is a clear drop in defensive consistency and intensity from Beard's teams and that is concerning since it seems like opponents get to the basket a lot easier than the previous 2 years. There's been stretches this year where the team shows it's good enough when motivated, aggressive and clicking to be a possible 2nd weekend NCAA tourney team, but the inconsistency is concerning. When things aren't working, the great coaches will adapt and change to maximize their roster talent. Terry seems like he is still trying to figure that part out consistently. He's experimented with lineups that have shown promising results and also stuck with discombobulated lineups and guys who were having really bad games. We also don't really have a Sir Jabari Rice rock we can rely on in the crunch... and the defensive energy and focus tends to be bipolar during games. This is not a talent depleted team or a team with a clueless coach... it's once where neither team nor coaches have been able to consistently build forward without taking the steps backwards along the way. These concerns are amplified by the fact we are already > 1/3 of the way into the season.
  22. Not a weird hate … I just expect him to be a lot sharper decision wise due to his experience and pedigree as a transfer … call it high expectations / tough love … I’ll root for him every game, just hoping to see some 5th year senior leading ncaa scorer pedigree and poise bubble up to bring this teams mean up several notches … his inconsistency is frustrating for me but I’m a demanding old bastard at times.
  23. Abmas setting up and heaving bricks 6 feet behind the 3 point arc when there’s 10 feet of open space in front of him is a head scratcher
