We seem to have cured the slow starts and have had great fast starts where we jump all over the opponent (UTEP, UNLV, Oregon)

and then comes the effin SLOW MIDDLE


Gotta play hard and focused with intensity for the whole game.

Incredible

Maybe, just maybe, we are like any other team and will have inconsistent play with a bunch of amateur 18-22 yo athletes. Woe is us, we are the ONLY elite team that doesn't play efficiently 40 mpg every game! :oops:

Take a look around at the CBK scoreboards any given day. Top 10 teams struggle with competition on the daily, some even (*GASP*), LOSE!

:idea: I'm convinced Sean consults a magic 8-ball for his lineup decisions:

Start lottery pick RHJ? "Ask again later"
Should Stanley start? "Cannot predict now"
Start the obvious 5 best players (TJ, SJ, RHJ, BA, KT)? "Signs point to yes!"
Should I bench this lineup after they start the game up 15-0? "Yes definitely"
TJ is having the game of his life - should I sub in PJC a lot? "Without a doubt"

You cannot let crap teams like Oregon and UNLV hang around with these baffling decisions or you're gonna take some unnecessary Ls

Call me Sherlock Holmes but I notice a big drop off when the 5best players (TJ SJ RHJ BA KT) are inexplicably sat for long stretches in favor of York, Pitts, PJC

The ore game was a blowout after 5 min, TJ on fire and Kaleb playing like white Shaq. What do we do? Remove them all except TJ for York Pitts PJC and Ristic at the same time. Result: Lead whittled down to 3 :shock:

We also continue to leave Bash/Pitts/York out on a defensive island to get abused over and over by whatever scrub du jour is having the game of his life. Clawful defensive strategy, but that's "what we do". :shock:

"Shakes magic 8 ball" is riseandfire a troll who cannot see the forest for the tree? Without a doubt.

Miller sure is dumb. But I wouldn't want any other coach.

Then in some later game when we need an effective bench: "Miller should've developed the bench more!"

Maybe--just maybe--Miller wants the second unit out there to see not who can score in the group, but who can play DEFENSE as a group.

I know, novel concept for a man who even ran out a second five for extended minutes in the first half of his NCAA second-round game against Texas, right?

Sorry, you forgot about Kyryl-Horne-Lavender-Mayes-Parrom?

*cough*

No teats on that site, all I see there are sausages. I can look at a sausage any time I want without internet access
