It seems to me that we have had more slow starts to the game or the second halves under BU than other coaches....I would further elaborate that we have had more scoring droughts and longer scoring droughts under BU than I can remember....That is on the coach, IMHO.....A coach has to have the pulse of the team and know when to push them or pull back based on their play on the court..
the coach stands on the sideline for a reason..To lead the team, to watch their play and make adjustments based on what he sees on the court and what he thinks will be to the betterment of the team and their play...
I'm not seeing any adjustments on offense , as we still run the weave, or set screens at the elbows or pass around the perimeter until eventually someone goes 1-on-1 ....Numerous times yesterday Kofi worked his defender where Kofi had the positive position and NO pass into the paint...time and again I wondered " kofi's open, pass him the ball.
I stand by my criticism of DW as I rewatched the game and his play was horrible...out of control, bad passes, blown layups and TERRIBLE defense...I guess we are at the point where I am going to refrain from my rants as BU continues to play him and we continue to get zero production on O and blow bys on D from him.....
I really thought we were a tourney team this year, but after 12 games I'm finally realizing we aren't..Too much uncertainty regarding READY to play, let alone play during the games....We had a 15 minute FG drought yesterday.....Think about that !!! 15 minutes of missing shots , turnovers , offensive fouls , poor rebounding and blocking out.....
We have way too many holes to go dancing now....I just hope we can better our 12-21 record from last year...i think the jury is out on that...if we approach another 12-21 season then buyout be damned...We are BETTER than this...way better than what has transpired before our eyes....
Playing favorites over more athletic players has to stop...If we are going to have a losing season, at least give others a chance....i have seen enough missed layups and poor play to convince me we need to start thinking about changes to the staff and everyone is accountable for their performance...
JMHO
