  1. The soft handling of Greg brown by Shaka, instead of hard coaching that would help him in his nba career endeavors, is actually contrary to Shaka’s professed goal of making these men the best they can be...you can correct, discipline and even punish and still be a positive influence on a young player.
  2. Breakaway foul?
  3. These announcers have annoying New England slang/twang but are actually making some valid basketball observations which is something you don’t get from lance, Fran and the boot-licker (lowell)
  4. The inmates control our asylum ...Shaka never gets on anyone to modify subpar behavior.
  5. If I’m tech, I foul the shit out of Simms to keep him from dunking and allow Ramey space for very long 3s...move the ball on offense until you have AJ or Febres getting posted up or running for an ole close out
  6. He could be our sole “ball handler” next year...scary thought
  7. It’ll boil down significantly to halftime adjustments now.
  8. Efforts every 3 Febres hits he gives up 4 - 6 easy points on D... give me Donovan Williams or Cunningham all day over Febres’ +/- ... and fit that matter AJ and Febres need to play with more than pick up game level effort and toughness on D and rebounding
  9. Tired of the McClung turd’s smack talking and soccer flopping... he smoked us with Gtown and Tech and needs some cold humble pie today.
  10. I’m glad to hear that. Thanks for the insight. In light of your feedback I wonder why there is such a breakdown in fundamentals, movement and court / time awareness during long periods of time on the court. Are his technique coaching, psychological approach and game planning subpar (despite him knowing what’s right) or are his players ignoring or not absorbing what he’s teachings/implementing? A couple players who just don’t get it or even a season of bad luck/unfortunate circumstances might not reflect a problem but there’s a pattern of recurring errors and issues over the past 6 years that are very worrisome.

  11. Coleman missed clutch FT and then proceeds to give his man a clear layup attempt
  12. And kill the Tiger Wood crushed legs loop
  13. How many times are our guards going to dribble into a double team and cough it up....pass the fucking ball
  14. Help defense is nonexistent in the paint ...Simms is on and island playing two guys
  15. And AJ in the paint on D doesn’t put a body on anyone
  16. Piss poor decision by Ramey to walk that up at the end and crank a hip shot three
  17. Cunningham fouled on the missed shot
  18. As long as he wasn’t standing up when he got the ball it’s not a travel
  19. And don’t go into the standing run the clock offense before the 90 second mark
  20. Quit shooting the fucking covered step back threes idiots... keep driving and moving the ball...that’s what got you back in the game
  21. Aj offers zero on D in the paint ...he just seems to sit in no mans land not double teaming down on the big aggressively nor choosing to cover the three point shooter.
  22. The AJ story is heartwarming and he can play when he’s not pouting, but that dogging it bullshit on defense deserves a seat on the bench for a spell...you turn it over, you sprint your ass back and try to make good, son.
  23. Taking shitty off balance jumpers until that dunk by Greg brown
  24. So looks like Febres is getting Cunningham and Donovan Williams minutes ... not a fan of that choice
  25. I'm an old school X-O's guy, but do appreciate the psychology element required to manage a roster of college kids, especially those who believe they are just killing time before their childhood NBA dreams are fulfilled. That said, it bothers the hell out of me that all of Shaka's answers to press conference questions about what needs to change, what went wrong, what went right, etc... are answers like "we need to play for each other"... or "stay in the moment", rather than things like "our movement on offense stopped ... we quit driving the paint... we started jacking up ill-advised, quick three pointers as soon as we got a lead"... He could be just trolling, but it reeks of a guy who needs to read a few John Wooden books with pictures.
