I’ll give you Murphy to an extent, but Dewan was never a true 5. Even though he should have been. He was too busy trying to mold his game into what he thought NBA scouts wanted to see. But still no huge bodies to keep opposing teams off the glass at a high enough rate.
Did wake forfeit?
This is probably the most entertaining team L has had here, excluding the 2 sweet 16 seasons. It's quantifiably the best offensive team, besides those 2, and the fastest paced team he's had.
10-3. We have to beat Wake first.
I miss Lykes but if he was still around that would mean the ball in Wong and Kam's hands significantly less. I think it's a wash. The killer was losing Cross. We're streaky at 3 now but we could really use a consistent shooter. Sure could use Brooks too, obviously.
IMO, Brooks was one of our most disappointing transfers in.
He got better at the end of the season and he rebounded and was a rim deterrent at least. He would really help now. He's averaging 9 and 8 for Ole Miss. That's a **** of a lot more than we're getting from Rodney and Gak.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I get why a lot of people get on L around here. But I never get the coach L hate. The FBI did that man dirty. L had the program rollin and then got side swiped by the corrupt system. Between that and all of the injuries, how in the **** was he supposed to be winning 17 to 20 games a year like some people on here want.. John Wooden wouldn't have been able to do much better under the same circumstances L has faced.
Still don't get why he left to go to Ole Miss, yes he would have given us a better presence in the paint but I agree, overall he played like a walking ******
The problem I have is we are too predictable. On offense when we get in our sets we feed the ball around pretty good. But it’s getting to that. We have a rotational sequence of plays that are standard and like I said predictable.
