The Downside - Georgia Tech

[SWC75]

- The definition of insanity: you keep starting unproductive players, (Benny Williams and Chris Bell), and getting off to bad starts, and then bring in productive players, (Maliq Brown, Justin Taylor or Quadir Copeland), and try to win the rest of the game by a bigger margin.

- The press could be the key to the season but JB continues to downgrade it in interviews and press conferences, “It helped a little but they just missed shots”. At least he’s willing to use it earlier.

- Benny only played 8 minutes after starting the game and it’s understandable that he’s upset by that, (although all he has to do is look at what Maliq was doing to see why). But Chris Bell got 18 minutes to prove he belonged in there and only got one shot off and never got his hands on a rebound. Both he and Benny had the same number of ‘net points’: again, Chris’s jersey number.

- The next three games: UNC, at Va Tech and UVA, will tell the tale. What tale will they tell?

Downside, still no Quad 1 wins. G tech is not a barometer, they suck.

It’s a barometer in terms of seeing that the team is capable of beating the bad teams. It’s a low bar but one that needs to be set

Any win is a good win.

Benny is avg 7.3 pts/ 4.4 Reb ==> Goal is 9p/6r
Bell is avg 6.8 pts/ 1.5 Reb ==> Goal is 8p/5r

Benny is a few consistent games away from reaching "what I think" is the goal for a successfull 1st year contributor. He lacks consistency in his approach and his mentallity is not there to get himself ready for a game. Again, these are my observations. He has to learn to transfer his practice effort into games.

Chris Bell is a freshman. He gets pulled from the game for players that are more effective on defence.

Now both are first year starters and need game experience.
