Calm down!

Yes we have looked bad but this is where Sha finds out what he has to work with and who can be the players he needs to start and finish games. There is a lot to be optimistic about. The defense has been great. That is something that Sha works at and is his priority. All of this kids can score the ball. No doubt that once they get more games and practices in the offense will run better.

No I don't see this as an NCAA tourney team but I see them getting better as the season goes on and actually not being as bad as they look now. Just get the offense going and we will be Okay. We will be competitive and we will surprise some teams and naysayers!

We did not look bad. Bad looks a lot better than how we have looked.

Lots can change. And I hope you are right.

We have an unprecedented number of new pieces to fit together. But 50 ppg so far is incredible to me.

There are two positives: (1) It’s only November 14th and we’ve only played 3 games, and (2) the defense has been good, and the team looks well-connected on that end.

The play on the other end and the clear lack of roles, flow, or connectivity is not just bad, it’s alarmingly bad. We should be worried by what it looks like. We’re rotating ball handlers too much, we’re using DAW as our PG, changing combinations, it’s chaotic and so slow bc everyone is confused. It’s why we haven’t even hit 58 points in a game yet against MAAC, A10, and CAA teams. That shouldn’t be happening.

And we had what in that scrimmage against Willard? 52? 🤦‍♂️

When you have two Quad 3 or 4 losses on your resume after 3 games that should be cupcakes it's easy to get discouraged. And when you actually watch the games and your eyes hurt after each one its even worse. I'm calm but very disappointed in the coaching, team construction and lack of basketball that I've seen.

Yeah we all knew to set expectations low but this feels like the bottom falling out in November instead of the usual January dip

This about says it all. No we haven’t played well but make a couple more FTs and we’re 3-0, where we should be but are not.

Wow Rick Barry could shoot better than that blind folded

 

[Mrpiratee]

I'm calm, like the calm you feel when you finally let go and accept that death is inevitable.

Is that a positive or a negative? My buddy whose a Rutgers fan, finally has twisted my saying to him, are you capable of handling the next 4 months of this?

 

[King of S]

Two very winnable games that we lost. People get upset over dumb losses. Play the hot players, run plays, make shots. Very frustrating.

In order to swoon you have to have a high point to swoon from.
