Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 2787743, member: 652"] We have played terrible defense 2 games in a row and with terrible shooting on offense. You don’t patience with these type of performances. Putting a lot of improvement on Frank Howard coming back is unreasonable. If we can’t score more easily then our only way to win will be to win ugly defensive style games. I don’t think Howard will make this team a significantly better offensive team. He will help more on defense. I trust the defense on this team will be elite by seasons end. I don’t think the offense will be better. There will just be games where we make jump shots we missed these 2 games. That gives no reason for optimism as we could miss those shots just as likely as we will make them. Ugly offensive basketball is frustrating. Dino Babers doesn’t get the same frustration because we can have less standards and expectations. If basketball wants to be graded on the football curve then the bar is lowered. [/QUOTE]
