    That plus Simms, Muoka(the kid from Lamar) and Greg Brown would be fricking awesome... even Hepa choosing to return over Brown staying a year would be a very good pool of players Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Simms, another guard who can bring the ball up court and find the open man, and one more rebounder who can block an occasional shot and this team just might be salty enough to make it to the 2nd weekend of the tourney.

    A hike through the Gap of Dunloe would be worthwhile. It's very close to Killarney. The Ring of Kerry is cool, but I kind of like to drive around the peninsula that includes Dingle and Connor Pass, as there are less tour buses. Also, I'd recommend a stop at Minard castle, between Killarney and Dingle, which is well off the beaten path and very surreal. In Dublin, there's large multistory pub (near St. Stephen's green and the main pedestrian/shopping/busking street) called O'neill's[sp?] that has a great cafeteria on the bottom floor. The Brazen Head in Dublin is a good spot to grab a Guinness.

    Despite flashes of showing some offensive ability (he pump faked and drove the lane once for a dunk), he has exhibited many bad habits / deficiencies that were not corrected or improved in his stay here... the ones that bothered me most included his unwillingness to box out for rebounds and lazy reaching on defense... on offense he fell in love (and was not coached up otherwise) with just standing in the corner and allowed his defender to cheat off him and rest... even when he was hot in rare games on offense, his weak defense ended up putting him on the bad side of the +\- column... his overall physicality and effort reminded me of a skilled junior high kid getting a taste of being bullied around by a grown man and being intimidated by it... a change in mindset and some firm coaching could make him a useful player this year...

    It'll be a strange (expectedly very rough, but hopefully not so) season with a roster full of swingmen types... youth will be tossed about as an excuse.. no true ball handler and no presence in the paint. We will shoot a ton of threes, get outrebounded regularly, and shy away even more from any paint related offense (unless Simms returned for some reason). Without a couple guys who can block a shot and fight for defensive rebounds, even the one most consistent plus for this team (defense) is prone for a drop.

    AJs jitter crossover is a an unforced turnover way too often for him to keep pulling that shit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    He’s likely our starting and only PG and go to ball handler next year when the games on the line... let that sink in Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Our best ball handler still panics like a freshman and plays with no sense of where his teammates are on the floor when he needs to be a stabilizing force Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Energy and another guy who will out a body on an opponent to box out for a rebound... the 4 guard lineup is total ass on defense Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    If you’re gonna play Sims as the only big man on the court you cannot have him pressing out at the three-point line ...he needs to stay in the fucking paint Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Greg brown has no clue what to do on offense ... and Texas turns it over and only 2 guys hustle back on defense ... Ramey, AJ, and Greg barely jogging back ... sit em down if that’s the urgency they intend to display Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The soft handling of Greg brown by Shaka, instead of hard coaching that would help him in his nba career endeavors, is actually contrary to Shaka’s professed goal of making these men the best they can be...you can correct, discipline and even punish and still be a positive influence on a young player.

    Breakaway foul?
  21. VinyVango
    These announcers have annoying New England slang/twang but are actually making some valid basketball observations which is something you don’t get from lance, Fran and the boot-licker (lowell)

    The inmates control our asylum ...Shaka never gets on anyone to modify subpar behavior.
  23. VinyVango
    If I’m tech, I foul the shit out of Simms to keep him from dunking and allow Ramey space for very long 3s...move the ball on offense until you have AJ or Febres getting posted up or running for an ole close out
  24. VinyVango
    He could be our sole “ball handler” next year...scary thought

    It’ll boil down significantly to halftime adjustments now.
