I don't know. Maybe the 5 Star MCD's AA could do something to help if he actually ******* played more than 1-2 minute spurts.
MY ******* GOD. HE HAS PROVEN HE IS NOT, I REPEAT, NOT READY. Give him time, but calling for him when you have seen that he does NOTHING when he is out there is the definition of insanity. AND NO, it's NOT better than having ANYONE else who has seen the floor out there.

JUST STOP IT!

Honestly, I think they are all playing hard. The defense these last 60 seconds had been really tough. I think they've played badly for a lot of tonight, but the effort has been fine. They really need some plays to put them in the best positions for success.
To their credit, they did stop the bleeding after losing the lead, but then just plain missed a whole lot of wide open shots. Momentum is a *****.

Nobody's been able to consistently keep GIlbert or Tamin in front of them. MM has had massive mismatches on the block much of the tournament. But up front, yes. The length this tournament has been a real challenge for King.

Skills are fine. Should we expect to score in the 80s consistently, no. But slogging in the 60s is an underachievement.

I think they will get better at both ends of the court, and they will have to.

Gilbert can get in the lane and after that it's an adventure.

I have a theory that the way they are asked to guard absolutely destroys their legs offensively and that’s part of why we can’t ever shoot.

Atleast Rob is playing his ass off. The rest of the team not so much.
I dont question the effort of basically anyone.

We just have a lot of guys who
1. Are new to the team
1a. Are new to big boy basketball
2. Aren't very talented.

Why are you yelling? While you’re at it though, which players on this team DO look ready to you?

Well this one got away. Glad the Fb team won the snow bowl. It was the highlight of the weekend.

A&M was ranked 12 for a reason.

Guess I'm going to need to DVR our games this season.
