Hurley said we played “mostly horrible”. We still won. I don’t think the sky is falling. We are too reliant on creating off the dribble and on bringing the ball up via the dribble. We just don’t move well enough without the ball to be a good passing team. Too many guys standing around waiting for whoever has the ball to do something. Doesn’t matter of it is Cole, Sanogo or somebody else, the whole team watches them.

Hawkins showed some life running off the ball early, then he stopped and stood like a garden gnome same as the others. I want 3 guys moving at all times with only Sanogo camping near the rim. Never liked Hurley’s offense at URI and I still don’t.

These were good learning experiences if we can learn. There is plenty of talent and I still remain optimistic.  Gaff needs to hit from outside or he isn’t mulch help. Same with Polley. Akok should be in more and we need to look for him in the post. He isn’t a 5, he is a good complement to Sanogo who can score off lobs.  Hurley playing 4 out with a team that doesn’t shoot is going to mean we have no offense but dribble penetration.  That’s a losing formula most games.
