Hayes with the typical "you're a big man so it's a foul when this guy lowers his shoulder and drives into you" foul. a la Dexter Pittman, Cam Ridley, Shaq Cleare, and every other big man we've ever had.

Ramey is dominating this game. 

Ramey's such a baller. I hope Shaka's gone next year so he doesn't beat it out of him. I still cannot think of a single player who has improved with an offseason under Shaka.

It just doesn't happen. Guys may get a little bigger, a little older, a little more mature looking, but they're the same player every year. Or they've improved by leaving Texas and going to the NBA. Player development is nonexistent.

Mitrou-Long has the handles and attitude of a hooper and the IQ of freshman J'Covan Brown. Dude is too old and experienced to be playing like this all season.

Agree

At least the team looks game .... without DO and Roach there a welcome drop in the my dog just died vibe... though Simms has a bad case of it too

to be fair to Long he isn't suited for our style. a bunch of guys standing around on the perimeter waiting to shoot threes is just about the worst offense for him to be in. he could possibly thrive in a system that let him get up-and-down, that avoided half court sets if possible, and that had a lot of fluid, moving parts.

You can tell he's not used to the athleticism. He's a step slow on offense and is frustrated that moves which used to work no longer get him by his man.

These guys on the floor play so much harder and with so much more joy and passion than the likes of Roach and DO. I'm sorry to our seniors but losing them is addition by subtraction. VV nailed it with his earlier post.
