Trap off one of the best three points shooters in the country ... cool... which one of our coaches scouts the other team?

18, 3 point shots... and 10 inside the 3 point line
I’ve seen pimple faced nba2k basement dwellers with a better understanding of offense and matchups

So many of our disorganized, panicked, late shot clock 3 point heaves will now just be 2 pointers? Â
I suspect we will still neglect working the ball inside...Â
I will watch, but I have absolutely no reason to suspect Shaka to make any improvements to recurrent, glaring issues like Snoop dominating the dribble and trying to channel Steph Curry, Febres standing motionless in the corner and having not idea how to drive or free himself for a better look, overusing the 1 big - 4 guard defense and getting destroyed on the boards...Â
If the attitude Ramey, Hamm and Hepa play with prevails, we might have a watchable game. If the Snoop, DO, and Febres melancholia and sapped motivation vibe prevails I may not make it to halftime. Â

I was so excited about we beat UNC and Arkansas. What a sucker, you think I would learn by now.
I actually tried to remain optimistic until we lost to a really bad Okie State team.

Georgia, Providence and that first game against OSU were the bad losses.
Holy fuck that Georgia game is still maddening. Have they won a game since they pantsed us?Â
Georgia, OSU, blowing the big lead to Baylor followed, home loses to VCU and Providence, and round 1 to TCU were all punches in the gut ... we shouldn't have lost the second game to the Sooners either. Most of our "quality losses" would have been wins with decent end game coaching and poise.

Just putting it out there... Radford and Virginia Tech are both on track to be tournament teams.
actually I meant VCU, but they may be heading for the tournament as well.

Shaka has the look, demeanor and overall vibe of a lame duck / kicked dog of late, which is never good for a program. It unfairly adds a shitload of pressure on the players when they start thinking their play will affect the livelihood of their coach.Â
Whoever is coaching next year has some very good, young pieces in place and won't be "starting over" or "rebuilding" (unless there are a ton of defections), as evidenced by the team play without Roach and DO on the court of late. That said, it's not clear if Shaka returning with his current underclassmen and recruits intact is better than some new guy like Buzz coming in and having a lot of recruits and players bolt. Beard has shown that a good coach can get guys the big schools passed on to play winning high-level ball.
If Shaka survives the season, I wonder if he maintains what's obviously not working well or tries to shake up his tone, strategic beliefs, and teaching methodology to save his job.
I think my dream hire would be Mark Few or Brad Stevens. Billy Donovan would also be good, as he ran an exciting brand of ball with really good results at another football school, Florida. I don't see either of them leaving the NBA anytime soon. Jay Wright would be good. I think Kelvin Sampson is a good coach, but he is a scumbag reputation wise. A lot of the former up and comers like the Millers, Mack, Cronin are kind of struggling. I'm not sold on the Nevada coach yet. There's a pretty big gap between the top 5-8 current college coaches and the rest of the pack.
I think we need a win against TCU and a win in the first round of the conference tournament (which is unlikely if Roach shows up suddenly and fucks up the recent chemistry guys have been trying to develop) to make the NCAA.
Maybe we get another shot at Va Tech, Providence or Radford in the NIT... ugh.
Rant over.

hepa playing fairly well.
He’s actually jumping for rebounds this game ... a big plus

Time to put the lid on this turd bucket ... nobody on our team is shooting worth a shit and we don’t have a clue how to get anyone a fair look at a shot

Gotta work off the Coleman drive... he has the hot hand and desire ... if they decide to shut that down maybe he can drop it off for some better shots to Ramey and the others

Zero hustle on defense ...not a good look

Tech won’t let Febres stand waiting for the ball... he’s going to have to work just to touch the ball and we don’t know what an off ball screen is .

Shaka ... keep running the offense rather than the stall ball
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Ramey has eclipsed Coleman noticeably and DO’s absence is a non factor ... just wish Hepa had even low bell curve level skill on defense and rebounding positioning

On a positive note the team is absolutely playing as a team without Roach trying to be Steph Curry and I am fine if he is done for his Texas career
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Team is so bad at rebounding.
Not even a basic fundamental display of getting a body on the closest defender when the ball goes up ... just a ton of standing and looking up

Give me 15 mins with Hepa and I could teach him how to box out a defender ... what have our coaches been focusing on all year?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Definitely not the energy / fire I’d expect to see in a team playing for its life... did everyones’ puppies die?

How about working inside where we have about 6” on the defenders?

No recognition of mismatches on defense or offense

Alaskan assassin?.... why does everyone need a cute nickname, Lowell?

Lowell coupled with Hepa’s atrocious defense is hard to bear
