Plus, Kam Williams had another surgery on his foot when is progress stalled out at 90% healthy
Practice Report from Givene
- Thread starter Blue till I die
- Start date
It’s pretty obvious last years team didn’t always care. Look at some of the games that they didn’t show up for. That team had absolutely no leader

Sounds like Pope is in Dark Pope mode and not playing around with these motha effas. That's what we need.
I put NO stock into off-season talk anymore.
As a Kentuckian I'll pretend im.from Missouri.
SHOW ME!.

Show me would be a welcome change around here. A lot of people bury the team before seeing them play once
Yes, or claim a national championship after a single home game against Cupcake U
Good positive report and JG is a truth teller. I’m more a believer in having great chemistry than most. Truly think it’s a must.

The reality is most, if not all, teams appear to have great chemistry together in the summer. It’s new and exciting and the guys are working/playing together.
Then the season ramps up and starters get worked out and rotations start to form once season starts. Then the personal feelings kick in.
This is why I am very interested to see how Bass mouth figures out the puke rotations/minutes. They legit have 11-12 guys who will be expecting to play. They have 3-4 big time studs who will expect to play 25-30 min per game.
The challenge is keeping that summer chemistry rolling and growing into the season once playing time gets sorted out.
Scheyer has his hands full with that more than Cal did with the platoon team.

chemistry i feel is mostly made up crap by fans. but there is a difference in how hard you work. some guys think they put in the work. the fact that JG notices a different in the work being put in is a good sign.
MARK, make them DOGS on defense. Do it and you might be here next year.
Meh. Just once, I'd love for someone, anyone, to say, "They just don't look very good. I'm concerned."
We disagree. Maybe I’m wrong but I think chemistry is huge. Some of the teams I played on had it and it helped. Couldn’t wait to get to practice and the games.
I thinks it breeds confidence and familiarity in each other.

The World Champion Knicks agree with your assessment.
Summer practices are fun to read about but they don’t translate to real play in the reg season. It’s NEVER what they say summer is like.
brandan garrison and mo d had chemistry.....but it turned out they werent very good and huge a-holes. go listen to goodman and others talk about milan. kid is high high character and works hard. thats how leaders lead. everything else flows down.
No reason to worry, everything Mark Pope touches turns to gold. I'm sure he will have them as a top 5 team ready to roll come November.
