Not a well coached team tonight.

[RUJMM78]

New coaching staff with high energy trying to transform a basketball program in a high profile power conference without talent to accomplish the positive change.Talent and shooting matter to achieve the ultimate objective of winning league games.Nobody knows if it will happen and how long it will take.

And a few more of the sunshine soldiers fall away. Look at Minnesota in the NBA with some of the best young talent around--Wiggins, Karl Anthony Towns, Rubio--takes time. Just love how everyone is knocking the coach. For not turning Gettys into Dwight Howard or Freeman into Karl Malone or Corey Sanders into Clyde Frazier? Get real. We have a couple of promising recruits, and we don't lose much. By the time you guys get old enough to know who Clyde Frazier was, we will be better.

I notice Omoruyi has consistently turned the all over when trying to get the ball into the post. Somebody pointing out he was the best passer on the team but I don't see anything close to that.

Yeah, I am not sure who said that. He is a freshman, and plays like it. I do t hink he has potential.

Going forward, the most important thing is that there is flexibility within the offensive game plan, and that they team makes easy passes.

True if he can develop a jumper he could be a nice player. And just to re-emphasize, I think he is bad passing into the post, he consistently turns it over in that specific situation, but at other times I don't notice regularity in terms of turnovers.

For sure. As fans, we need Laurent, Omoyuri, and Freeman to develop a jumper. Right now, they do not have it.

I heard to improve shooting the team has started playing games of HORSE at the end of practice. So far they haven't been able to finish any or determine a winner. Good gimmick anyhow.

Freeman is 2 for 3 from 3 this year :basketball: AND last year when he was hurt I was watching Laurent in street clothes knock down 3 after 3 from way beyond the arc.

Doesnt matter. 2 for 3 from three?Doesn't mean he can hit it reliably, or he would be shooting it a ton.

Anyone with a week of practice can hit tons of shots. Can you do it with a hand in your face, tired, frustrated.

The majority of our team cannot right now.

I have a minor in statistics from RU. If Freeman takes 30 3s a game we'd be 19-0.

Half of the above is true.

Figures lie, and liars sure can figure.
