shoot

we can, make ‘em we can’t especially in away games. 11-2 @ home. 0-5 away!? We are Dome Homers this year - a totally different team away, tentative, non - defensive, low scoring. Working on your bad is something you do in practice. That’s just basic logic so some who criticize the coaching should look at what they’re saying again. Hell, when I was playing baseball and other sports you worked on mistakes you made in games over and over until you got it right and got better. 996 wins he didn’t get there by not getting things right in practice and games. HOWEVER, why in away games do we keep failing?

The zone however needs to be examined for its effectiveness in today’s game. The poster below who says they shoot over the zone is right. It is a different game today, we can’t bank on the Z anymore not with the talent level we have on this particular team.

- I hear you but when you get the right pieces then the zone works really well. Baylor has been playing good zone for years now. So have we. Last year our perimeter D got really good to help mask the interior woes. This year Lydon still shouldn't be in there playing the 5. We saw Coleman vs ND. He can barely get up and down the floor and Chukwu sucks. Thompson can't do anything right on D. This year either the collective Bball IQ of the players is at an all time low or they just don't give a damn and don't try. The perimeter D of Howard and Gillon is just terrible. Battle has been pretty good lately but even yesterday he was giving up dribble penetration. Maybe they are shutting the coaches out. I don't think this team would give the necessary effort in M2M. But, it comes down to the staff bringing these players in. Getting real tired of the sanctions excuses also.
