I was interested in what the team manager posted

friend of a manager, not an actual manager.

We're not going to have great movement and here's why:

My friend is a manager on the team and oversees all the practices and sometimes even ends up running stairs with the team due to poor effort. He says this offense is based a lot on isolation (NBA-type offenses). We're not going to have a lot of movement around the perimeter. They look for one pass to get the person into scoring position. The more we move the ball around the perimeter the worse. You can see this when we'll set up a screen on the wing and the screener will fly off the ball to get to the rim (for whatever reason we don't get it to them in time enough). The style of offense is not very sophisticated but simple and effective (unless you miss a billion shots like we did Saturday).

That was pretty good really. Fits the philosophy of sometimes a missed shot is good offense for us. If I had time I'd chart how many times we get to the last 10 or 5 seconds on the shot clock, its not often outside the last 5 minutes of close games.

Make shots.

sltherific slogan.

I was just telling Bill (Seff) the other day, the game's easy when you make shots.

Shirttucks ( :opcat:) frustration w/ our offense similar to Bob Knight's frustration, if there is not one white guy passing to another white guy, then screening off the ball something must be seriously wrong and obviously our coach knows nothing about this game of roundball.

That half-assed explanation seems accurate to me. Offensive rebounding is our most effective "play". This is the same offense we've seen since Huggs/Frank arrived, now we just don't have anyone to run the transition O very well. miss you denis...

The real question, should we even be missing Clent Stewart at this point?

Excruciating question.  Possible the greatest, and most troubling, of our time.
