I know it is against the nature of Cuse fans but RELAX!

[Cuseball]

So many new pieces and so many new roles. It will take time. Cal's a good team and Iowa is a good team. Even if you leave NYC at 2-2 you still should have more answers than by playing Hampton 2 more times. This is one of those years where pateince is key.

• Joseph was not ready for last night and he probably isn't ready for tonight. As long as he keeps getting experience and keeps learning from misstakes he should be a good PG by mid to late season. Lst night PG play was the reason for lack of flow to offense.
• Rak is much improved from last year. Once he learns how to play with more touches (not head down and to the hoop every time) he'll be even better
• Roberson just needs experience. Looks stiff at times out there as once he settles down can do some nice things. if he can get 1-2 big games he'll be a new player.
• don't worry about if Mike G starts. he's comfortable off the bench and played 30 minutes last night. Regardless if he's anounced at the beginning he will play major minutes
• Trevor is not the issue. He'll never be the 45% knock down shooter we all hoped but he can hit 38-40% and that is fine. you need goood PG play, good passing and other offensive threats to get your shooters open. lats night there was none of that so you get a 2-6 shooting night from 3. As Kaleb develops at the point and penetrates and finds open players, Cooney will get more open looks.

Development of Kaleb and Roberson are the key to the season and they will both get better with more experience.

Cuse!

Thought Rak front rimmed about 6 shots. Those go in? Can he adjust?
