Charleston Game 3: VCU 12:30pm ESPN+

Six games in and I can’t watch this team. It’s so bad, worse than I can remember this early. Even the Rion Brown team played hard and had a sense of itself.

Close the gap. Kidd back in. L yelling at him for poor defensive positioning and then he gets beat down the floor for a transition dunk. Lead shoots back up. Color me shocked.

Currently -16 with Kidd on the floor.
 
Kidd’s NIL is a sunk ******* cost. It was a mistake. Just eat it and play the groups that actually have some ******* offensive spacing, because he’s not giving us ANYTHING.

Hard to believe we were at the line with a chance to tie the game just a few minutes ago
 
Miami is getting good penetration and gets by their man but but there is no movement off the ball so the help defense is able to help and recover to easy. Need more backdoor cuts off the penetration or relocation when they’re men Go help.

If they would move the direction of the ball, i.e. ball drive right everybody move right that would create back doors from the wings and corner ( ala the old dwyane Wade cut ) along with fades from the wings to corners for shots along with better drives because the off ball movement is moving the help defense and also takes them out of good defensive rebounding position

Can’t watch the game but looks like Jalil and Divine are at least seeing the floor.

Things look bad though. It’s hard to believe this team can’t beat anyone

I’m the biggest homer and defender there is.

But this is right and I don’t understand why we keep rolling out 5 & 24.

I’m not a high level hoops guy but it was obvious to me from day one.

5 should be 12-15 mpg player.

99, 3, 24, 11 should be the backcourt rotation with 11 occasionally sliding to the 3.

Cleveland gets a lot of crap but he’s trying to make up for really bad backcourt play.
 
This team is so bad

It's time for Larranaga to do the right thing and resign for the good of the program. This is like Mack Brown holding UNC hostage

My excitement at us starting in a 3 guard lineup was immediately dampened by us also having Kidd out there. And an immediate walk. Lol
 
TV Teddy with the call from the backcourt when another official was right there.
