low basketball IQ Team

He had 5 assists, 5. I credit him with the 15 boards. But going 2 for 12 is inexcusable. He also turned the ball over 3 times.

Adams had the same amount of points while running the point. And had turned the ball over a single time. Shot 2 for 7. 5 boards. Adams plays with a spark whereas Hamilton does not. I also said that Adams "will be" special.

This post demonstrate the lack of understanding you have about the game of basketball. His 5, yes 5, were 3 more than anyone else, which is more than double anyone else. Yes, he had 3 turnovers, which considering how much handles the ball, way more than anyone on the team, is pretty good. Adams would kill for a 5/3 Assist to TO ratio it would be a MAJOR improvement over his 2 to 1.5 season average.

Just give it up, you honestly are looking foolish asking how Hamilton "contributed" while he was on the floor.

When missed shots equal points I suppose we can talk..

Biggest problem? This team is a team of a lot of great role-players, no real superstars. No Allen, Kemba, Shabazz' and Okafor on this team.

First you need a LEADER
This team has no leader.
A lot of teams have no superstar but have leaders

And this is a post of a defeated man who realizes he was shown to be very very stupid, because honestly, of all your posts this is definitely the dumbest.

Wouldn't it help if our coach was a leader?

Hey
DHam is no where near the stiff you liken him to be
He is in a terrible slump but due to the ineptitude which permeates the team right now, he can't work out of it
He's a real good basketball player who hasn't even touched his potential but he is taking too much on his shoulders right now
I don't care what kind of rebounds he gets but 15 is a lot - case closed
Yes he can rebound and yes he has proven he can score but right now it's a mental thing and it's time one of the dolts in suits on the bench needs to work with him to figure it out.
You don't care for him - that's your choice and in my mind - your problem

Yes mini darren, I do.

Save face? The entire country is laughing at us win or lose at that point, as they should be.

I disagree. The rest of the country doesn't give a ____ about UConn basketball anymore, for good reason.

Hamilton will be known for great appearances in the NIT.

Fair question
I am not sure he isn't. My gut is telling me that he is confused with this team. I think they are a completely different cast of characters in practice vs game.
Ollie can scream and yell all he wants on the bench BUT that doesn't turn one of these guys into a leader.
KO needs to find himself a leader - I don't think JA is the answer
I remember Kemba and Bazz, as freshmen, circling up the team during breaks in play and talking.
If Purvis or SG would get into someone's face and fire the team up I think you see a different team. AB is not the answer.

You are arsewipe with statements like this

This is true, and even sadder.

Missing a lot of shots, but also not getting offensive boards. Also we shoot so many long distance shots forgetting about Miller.

Speaking of bigs who has really improved (dramatically) over the year(s)?

Glad I converted you in this issue but it's unfortunate the situation still exists.
