The defensive lapses in the backcourt are the truly mindboggling thing. Although Swain is not a backcourt player, he's guilty of it too. If you had shooting skill on the offensive end, you could mitigate that. Perhaps Miller could make an example of someone by benching them a few games. Problem is he doesn't have a reasonable option to fill in. That's why I don't care how many games they win from here out as long as they don't completely fall apart.

Based on what I've heard Bucky say, he thinks gimmicky ball is the way to go in the "modern" game. While it's true that current rules and even the three point line itself are gimmicks, you can't coach your team to rely on gimmicks like 6'5" centers and "pressure" and still win big when you play teams that are both talented and fundamentally sound. Otherwise stated, physics and form can't be negated with gimmicks.

Haven't seen much adapting. He's a really good coach. Even when Crump comes back, we won't be a good shooting team.

Shooting, shooting, shooting? Don't know what Vic has against it, but that's what he's always lacked.

I think this is true enough within the scope of the first five games of conference play. That said, Bucky ball is still gimmick ball and it won't pan out over the long haul. I'd lay big money that Bucky never wins consistently at a high level in high major basketball. Miller's problems stem from defensive breakdowns by knuckleheads and inconsistent shooting. He can be blamed for the roster this season, and maybe failing to do enough to "adjust" to his players, but his goal is to build the program over the next couple of seasons, not maximize wins this season, which wouldn't do more than maybe get him into the tournament.

Their actions clearly indicate they don't see the guard issue as nearly as big a problem as some fans do. They have the money and they would have spent it if they thought it was a must. Educated guess is that Sark thinks Arch's improvement largely negates the guard issue from a pass pro standpoint and they plan to emphasize outside zone in the run game. Differently stated, Sark clearly thinks getting big time weapons for Arch is much more important than getting a big time guard. More bang for the buck.

I want to start by saying I like Miller. I was skeptical of the hire, but watching him coach, I like him. Seems he's tough for some guys to take, so he's gotta get more of "his guys." Not enough shooting, and just not enough intelligent guard play on the defensive side. Wilcher has not panned out. Can't see him back next year. Heide is way too timid. Can't see him back next year. Mark, Pope and Weaver are out of eligibility if I'm not mistaken. I think Swain will be back unless he just wants to transfer. He's not a first or high second round pick. Be happy to keep Matas, but wouldn't pay him too much. Don't think it's a good idea to go into the season counting on Goosby and Ogden to be big time guys as freshmen. Need a PG that can spearhead the offense and defense. Obviously need a wing or two that can bridge to Goosby and Ogden. Then you need a couple of consistent role players/glue guys. Don't really care what happens the rest of this season as long as they don't collapse.

Greatest game ever in the history of basketball.

Most of these chumps haven't actually watched games.

Years, we talking Elvis, Kobe, Arch.

The reason I thought Kobe would be the best player in the world is because Jerry West said Kobe would be the best player in the world when he drafted him as a seventeen year old in June 1996. He was right within four years.

Elvis to Arch.

Watch Reservoir Dogs. That's 1992 Cowboys v Eagles. I'm dealing with pansies here.

If you're an Eagles fan you need to answer for this stuff. Being a sports fan doesn't alleviate you from right and wrong.

Would you root for Landry and Staubach or Sirianni and Brown?

Don't like evil. Includes criminal sooners and eagles.

Eagles fans are the biggest scumbags in the history of the world. They deserve to lose every game from now until the end of time.

You boys play for Sean Miller.

What a block!

I have no confidence. Until game seven 2002 WCF. Knew we couldn't lose then.

I've never seen refs like this.

If we win, we get Kobe. https://www.tiktok.com/@gdfactoryclips/video/7237609156268674305

Damn this crap.

I've never seen this kind of ref crap. Is the mafia on the sideline?

I could make more free throws than these goobers.
