Coleman has to be the best sell this staff has.

It’s a testament to what they can do for players. Hopefully young guys can be mature enough to recognize that.

Ayo too. He got big money in the NBA in no small part because he didn't go for the quick money. Not hard to see other NBA ceiling guys on this roster and/or incoming.

Keeping him interested just doesn't matter. He's not good enough to not play our best players

If he leaves, he will be replaced

Brutal, but you're not wrong. This team is special, and guys want to win. If a player isn't willing to buy into that mission, and if needed make some sacrifices, then they're going to find themselves not playing. I can see why DGL is here --the fit looked great going into the season. But he's got some things he needs to work on, and if he takes the easy route the staff will no doubt adjust.

Because he is smart he’s aware of his shot shortcomings at this time but seriously imagine a TSJ type who could go left or right? With a much more refined floor game?Not necessarily a 3p shooter but can get to his 18 foot off the bounce or off a screen? It is there with a jumper.No point guard(or that dumb strategy about a big man defending him..lol)will be able to guard him ….Period..

I am just amazed at the minute details that BU sees during the game, he doesn't miss a thing. When I rewind to see why he is upset, it's there every dang time. I guess that's why he makes the big $.

Yeah, yeah, but let's face facts:

1. He's stubborn and inflexible. He won't make in-game adjustments like in the Maryland game
2. We don't have a real point guard and without that we'll be mediocre at best this season
3. Coleman Hawkins blah blah blah
4. Tyler

and... most persistent and damning of all:

5. he still can't diagram an effective, end-of-game, high-pressure-sitch inbounding play.
