The huge difference being....

....that Stansbury's teams could dribble and complete more than 30% of their passes (to their own team).

I.e., they looked like they had practiced and had been coached.

Ray had a really swell jacket on, though. Looked really sharp.***

Damn right I did. This is even worst.
There is no motion in our offense.
Just horrible. We are in the double bonus and shoot 3 pointers. Really???
Drive to the hole and get a layup or on the line. It's not like they have great shot blockers. Ray needs to go. NOW.

Well, that's tough when you're not great at dribbling. I don't know if yall have realized or not, but Fred Thomas really isn't great at running and dribbling at the same time.

You're correct only problem with that is we only have 1 player who can do that and it's Sword. No power forward ,weak post player and especially no shooting guard. Won't be successful until those needs and a few other are met.

I think the biggest thing that bothers me is how little confidence we appear to have on the offensive end. Everybody other than Sword just looks really nervous.

Ready and Daniels could be really good players for us if they would be more aggressive.

Add Daniels and bloodman to this group. At this level, you can't teach someone to be a ball handler. They either are or they're not. Ray can and should be held accountable for not getting better ball handlers though. Tookie and weatherspoon will help out tremendously here.
