Message: [QUOTE="ucp990411, post: 5126774, member: 1217"] Rather than blaming the refs for losing the game how about we talk about our performance. Here are my grades for the players and coach. Hurley - D minus. If you complain about every call you won't get any calls. His T cost us this game. Johnson - F. If it could be any lower it would be. Karaban - C. Has turned into a strictly 3 pt shooter. Our first team all American should have done more to lead the pups. McNeeley - D+. Had him for a D minus until he made the 2 three's. Didn't rebound and played poor defense. Threw up prayers on his drives to the basket. Seems to shy away from contact. Ball - D+. made the big shot. What else? Got torched on D Mahaney - D minus. We need more from our starting point guard. Waits too long to initiate the offense. Poor D, again Reed - A+. Turning into our best player. Diarra - B+. Almost willed us to victory. Stewart - A. Why didn't he play more in the 2nd half? Hurley said he looked "skittish". Maybe if he was not looking over his shoulder so much. Afraid to make a mistake. Ross - D. Did nothing. What happened to the player that in practice looked like our best player. Really needs to play better D I know it is a long season and the ceiling is high, we will get better as we get more experience, this will not be the only bump in the road. My biggest concern is that other than Reed and Diarra we look like a soft team. Our players complain way too much about the calls, show them a better example Dan Hurley. [/QUOTE]
