6ers are dumb that would have easily landed Kawhi
In fairness they didn't have a GM back then, and with Brett Brown running things he probably didn't have good perspective in terms of value.

Just sit his ass on the bench and go with Roach Ramey and Long
That's pretty much what he did at the end of the game.

There was about a 6 minute period of play in the middle of the first half where I thought we looked like a good team. Outside of that the entire game was garbage.
-
Yep having guys like Ramey and Long to cull the down spells will serve us well.

So I had a conversion awhile back with a source very close to the program. Here is what this person had to say about the state of affairs of the b-ball program.
Not only is Shaka not a very good coach today, he knows it. He was reluctant to take the Texas job because he knew he wasn’t ready but didn’t feel like he could turn down such an incredible opportunity. He’s trying to learn on the fly to get his teams where they ought to be.
The recruiting has obviously been great so he’s working hard to improve his coaching skills to take better advantage of the talent he is assembling.
I thought you said you had some inside info.

If Jones gets back to form this year Febres minutes need to diminish accordingly. He should get a few minutes every game to see if he has a hot hand, but if not he needs to see the bench. He doesn't stress the defense at all.

Bench was a lot shorter in the second half, but it was good to get so many guys involved in the first half. It will be interesting to see how our rotation evolves when Hamm is healthy and if/when Jones can handle more minutes.
That being said we played a lot better in the first half, especially when we started using the bench. Maybe Shaka should take that into consideration.

Agreed Hayes & Ramey need to replace Sims & Febres in the starting 5 ASAP!
Add in Hepa for Osethowski as well. I need my bigs to cut to the basket every now and then.
-
I can't see how it's possible for Sims to ever leave Texas before he's a senior. Forget offensive skill. Dude doesn't even have offensive instincts for the game.

We won a game in which we shot 21-67 from the floor... Are you a pessimist or an optimist?
Shot 70% from the free throw line.

Ugly as fuck, but fuck Arkansas!!! And kill this ball screen offense. Especially where Osetkowski never fucking dives to the basket. You're 6'10" for godsakes. Dive to the fucking basket every now and then.
-
So far Coleman is 0-5 from the field, 0-2 from 3, with 3 assist and 1 steal.
-
Sims is gonna get a lot of FT attempts this year. Hopefully our guards get a lot to balance him out, albeit he's shot decently well so far today.
-
Box score on ESPN has Royce Hamm with a personal foul. Did he get in the game??
-
Coleman must have 2 fouls. He didn't play for seemingly the last 12 minutes.
-
Ramey has a chestshot.

Ramey isn't as explosive, but he kind of reminds me of Oladipo.
I can see that. He has that type of aggression on offense and irritation on defense.

Way to calm down. Would love to see more movement and penetration along with quicker ball movement.

i'm glad we eventually hit that but we passed up three consecutive wide open jumpers.
You aint lying.

Milwaukee needs to be on National TV like 20 times this year. Anyone with a brain knew the addition of Budenholzer steering that roster was gonna cause the Bucks to be a problem this year.

I think we will get better shots this year with Coleman, Long and Ramey. I know it was Eastern Illinois but our ball movement was pretty good last night.
We have 3 players that can handle the ball now and get guys shots.
Roach and Febres should get open looks from 3 all year. We saw it last night with Febres. If anything we were a little bit too unselfish last night and passed up some good looks.
I think people forget how many open shots we got last year and missed. For all the criticisms of Shaka's offense he does/did a good job of scheming open shots. Of which we missed a shitload last year. I'm sure @Bitterwhiteguy could give us the synergy numbers from last season, but I remember reading an accounting of it and we did a reasonably good job getting guys open shots. Just have to knock them down.

Players like O'Connell get wasted playing for Duke. He would start for a team like us at the 3. He'll be there 4 years and only get starters minutes during his final season.
-
Has Alex O'Connell even played today?!?!
-
Hayes will probably play A LOT more than we predicted.

Basketball Buds or Nerder she wrote discussed Fultz and Simmons numbers playing with each other and when one of them aren't on the floor. Their numbers are significantly worse when they're on the floor together.
