What we learned today.

I learned Amida does not like to pass the ball when receiving it down low. Its sorta a black hole for him. We just have to hope he makes the shot cause he's taking it whether double or triple teamed.

Seriously though do they tell him its okay to pass it back out if there is no immediate shot?

I'm sure they work on it Kita he just has no feel for that part of the game. Actually how many assists do we get form our bigs all year?

If bigs can pass it's huge for the offense.

Kitaman its probably because Amda knows he doesn't have shooters to pass the ball to so his shot will be a higher percentage one.

He sees the ball so infrequently on the post that he feels inclined to shoot--they need to feed the post more often

What we need is something beyond the team's control - experience. Everyone made momentum killing plays. Very foolish plays.

we learned that this team stinks.
there is a severe lack of talent in the front court and back court.
i blame ollie and his staff.
gonna be a long time before we are good again unless they recruit some real talent.

This should be in the dictionary next to Bad Post. It's got everything: Nasty and terse blanket statements, utterly brainless nonconstructive criticism, reflexively throwing the coach and entire staff under the bus and then shoveling dirt on the program's grave, all in just four lines. Bravo!

What I want to know is what Gurleyman did to make it possible for me to see the stupid post. Everyone else who quoted or commented left me blindly guessing which Ignored idiot wrote something inflammatory.

I dunno. I imagine it's a Forum Runner thing. I like it for most things. But you still see posts from people you put on ignore, and then you feel compelled to respond. Consarnit.

The offense looks too mechanical. Nothing is being done smooth and natural. And it's largely attributed to the youth.

Hamilton, Brimah and Facey could be best back court in college next year.....
Ollie needs another point guard.
Sam Jr reminds me a lot of his father's game, unfortunately his father is heading towards his sixties.

Just because it enters you brain it doesn't mean you have to write it. Sometimes you just need to step away from the computer.

Players need to step up, plain and simple

 

[donyell34]

Constructive critique and criticism is one thing but kicking them when there down is another. Some of these posts are really vile. Fortunately it's only a few. Just remember what some of these guys did for us just a short time ago. Happy new year guys and gals.

Hate losing. Hate negativity too. This game was ours except for awful free throw shooting. Cassell is pretty slow footed. KFace is getting better. Without Boat on the floor we need to run some plays better. DHam needs to come off screens sharper. Ready for our next game. Happy New Year everyone!!!!
