Message: [QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 1965526, member: 489"] They don't have the pieces to be successful. I mean you need shooters, you need a guy who can flash the middle/high post and make positive plays. They don't have them, can't beat a zone without these. Facey flashed 2 games ago and was good as the zone left the middle open - you've seen him against better coached teams who collapse on the high pots with the guards and if you put the ball on the ground you'll most likely get stripped. Suddenly teams take away things from scouting, and this team can't afford anything being taken away because they have so little skill wise to begin with. Shooting - you either can or you can't. Vance Jackson can I believe and he's struggling - maybe playing too fast or maybe as simple as the game is tot fast for him right now but no matter he's not making shots the way he is supposed to so it needs to change - way too many open looks which would help a ton if he was even shooting 35%. Rodney is not as good as last year shooting the ball either, who knows why? FT's - Brimah changed his style and is awful. Why change from 70% to this? Facey killed us down the stretch missed 3 FT's. Just not a good team as gb said "grin and bear it" is the only thing we can do. [/QUOTE]
