Message: [QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 2395819, member: 489"] Not sure why a "work in progress" isn't ok? I mean they ARE just that. Not throwing fluff around this team will struggle early and if you don't like that don't watch them. Hell, I would be a fool not to wonder if they will struggle all year as there's just some things that concern me. But for now it is what it is, they need to play together, KO needs to see different guys in the line up with Jalen and what should be the regulars. He needs to see everyone play while he can and that will stop more than likely once he gets a sense of who is going to command the minutes. It may stop when they tip off the first game next week. Heck even Jalen and Alterique are a work in progress playing together in more than a practice setting. They need to make each other better and find a way to do that. That would be on both ends as they both have the same tendencies of not keeping their guy in front of them and that will lead to all kinds of disarray on D. If they don't make shots it will be a long year anyway I mean it's a must. They didn't look good against a zone with a bunch of 6'2-6'4 kids imagine a zone with 6'2-6'10 kids long and fast? All of them tried to cut the mustard too much when they found a seam and threw some dreadful passes which will lead to fast breaks the other way against better teams. Terry will be huge if he can shoot it from 12-15 against the zones as well as maybe even Polley. Long way to go I'm afraid, hang on for the ride that hopefully gets smoother game to game. [/QUOTE]
