those last two possessions were terrible. Christ i can draw up better plays.

Many of the last possessions were pitiful, some of them were Boats fault no denying that. When he begins the 10 dribbles behind hi back in the same place with 5 seconds left I think they know he's going to shoot it.
What got me was coming out of the timeout in a 2 for 1 opportunity and standing out there dribbling - be aggressive hate that crap. Run offense, go hard to the basket get a foul or at least have plenty of time down the other end. Frustrating

ESPECIALLY A COACH WHO SPENT 13 YEARS IN THE NBA!!!!! HEY BOAT, SPEND 10-15 SECONDS WIPING YOUR DAMN SNEAKERS, THEN LETS SEE WHATS OUT THERE 25 FEET FROM THE BASKET!!! OK, no more screaming. This game means nothing in the big picture, gotta win the conference next weekend.
This is another baffling example of lack of coaching and play calling. We actually had drawn up plays that we could potentially score off of last season...where did those go?our best inbound play is a 50 foot pass into the back-court

Why is our only read to throw it deep and high to a big man, often times it isn't even a safe outlet either
Did we think we had the greatest group of players heading into our last two NC seasons?...hell noI have an opinion. We talk about smarts, strength and just the overall skill of the game. Last year we had guys like Bazz, Giffey, DD and Lasan who were all very good overall players. They listened to the coaches, more than likely remembered and executed the plays as well as the in bounds, doing things on time as well as being crisp while doing so. Now we do have youth, buys with little knowledge and many skinny, less than physically imposing people. For instance on in bounds plays, timing is critical for execution as well as picks. We have REALLY crappy pickers out there, Brimah and Facey are stick figures so guys get through and between them very simply, makes the play call go away right? Giffey, Olander even, Kromah, tough smart players always found a way and DD long and an easy pass in on a lob.
We don't have the same player nor the same aptitude to pull a lot off. The brains of this years team is at least half the battle I'm afraid form point A - Z.
