Did anyone mention the bit from one of the announcers during the last game, telling us about how Chukwu reached out to Baye to help him with his defense? Baye showed up at a practice (in nyc?) and advised him on zone ethos and anticipation or some such. Which is lovely, and speaks to the ‘cuse Family’ thing—generous move by Baye. But leaves me with the same question, about why we don’t have a Bigs Coach who actually played the position. It’s like having a NASCAR driver teaching F1. A catcher teaching outfielders. Me teaching anything. Not ideal. It doesn’t give me confidence to know that our kid feels like he can’t get what he needs from the people who are there every day. And yeah, sure, some will say this is a nothingburger, and it’s just an innocuous thing, but it just reinforces the eyeball test. We, too often, just don’t look competent in the post.

As to our ceiling—I think we can beat anyone in our conference except Duke. But we will probably also lose to the someone at the bottom of the conference. Ceiling is always F4 when we get in, because shizzle happens. But, that’s not the measure of how good we actually are.
