People need to stop the Red can’t coach stuff. He’s searching for players who can step up and play. I’d play Petar over Freeman every day of the week. The only thing Freeman does is defensive rebound. He’s terrible on defense, can’t shoot, can’t pass and walks all over the court. You never see him battling on the offensive boards. He’s as soft as charmin. Anyone who thinks he should be a lottery pick won’t have a job long. He brings very little to the game. I thought he would bring a lot more to the table, but he’s been very disappointing. I don’t trust his shot selection or effort. He and Lampkin just can’t defend anyone. The best thing about these two games is we battled and were in both games. Last year at Maui we were totally outclassed. We also proved we can make free throws, so that’s encouraging. After five games it’s still not clear who should be staring. If Chance has his old skills, we will finally have someone who can attack off the dribble and make plays for his teammates. He could also defend. You can’t give up on anyone at this point until someone proves they are better than someone else. People talk about our defense, but our offense is going to be our biggest problem. Who scores on a consistent basis? Despite the two losses, there’s a lot to take from these two games. More positives than negatives.
