Amir makes a positive contribution right away.

Painful sequence of misses. Should be into single digits.

amir, jerebko, smart bradley, IT
try it please

I want to see IT - Smart - Jerebko - KO - Amir.

That should be the best offensive lineup we can put out there.
ko over bradley, ko did not show up, and bradley is heating up in this half


KO spaces the floor and moves the ball.  Bradley is way too small to have out there next to IT, and he still zeroes in on the deep mid-range shots when the going gets tough.

We need Kelly's secondary ball-handling out there, plus his floor spacing playing off IT and Amir.

Agreed.  He wouldn't have shot that last year. And he should have.

What is everyone's frustration level with Lee at so far with 10 being the most frustrated from 1-10.

Worst big man on the team.


My position remains that Lee is not the problem, it's the fact that he's placed in lineups that can't shoot, so he has no space to work.



He can't finish around the rim and that isn't the fault of anyone but him.  Yeah he could do better with more space but he's been bad, especially around the rim.  He gets stuffed like crazy.  No lift.

Well, sure, but that's kind of the point -- he's not going to finish over other guys.  His value is in his ability to pass, make the smart play, extend offensive possessions with rebounds, and finish looks inside that are open or over smaller guys.

Someone should tell him that because that is not how he is playing.  He is going at guys and trying to put up shots inside.

We have multiple other bigs better at everything you mention as assets he can bring.

I am worried that we are going to be seeing a lot of these poor shooting games this season.  For all of the potential of some of our shooters, we don't really have any legitimate 3 point threats except for Avery.  Until someone else on the team can become a threat, the defenses will be packing it in on us.

I kinda want to see how this team performs for a game if Stevens just keeps Turner, Lee, and Zeller on the bench.  Shorten the rotation.

I still think those guys, individually, are not the problem, but I think the rotation is too deep right now, guys can't get a rhythm, and we need to play lineups that feature more skill and athleticism.
