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.

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.

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.

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.
