[QUOTE="Wade, post: 1577695, member: 746434"] My thoughts: - People have underestimated losing Feliz. He was a bulldog offense and defense and made this team what it was last year. We've basically replaced him and Griffin with 2 freshman. That's a net negative for us. - We will go as far as curbelo and Miller take us. We need at least one of them to play well for us to win. Curbelo hasn't played well the last couple games. Mainly because teams are going under screens and daring him to shoot. So we lost. Miller has been a disappointment all year. He simply isn't efficient on offense. He lacks the talent to drive and finish. Jacking 3's and only making 30% at most against real competition isn't cutting it. - Kofi has to make free throws. Teams are going to hack a Kofi until he starts to make them. - We need a lineup change just for sake of change. I say start grandison at the 4 and give him more minutes. Move Monte to the 3 and decrease miller's minutes. -ayo has to be more aggressive at the start instead of "letting the game come to him" The season is not lost. I think we will be better at the end of the year. But freshmen have to be better. [/QUOTE]
