Can someone remind me again why this is much better than the product OP put on the court?

I think Brownell is a good coach, but his recruiting ...
Feb 16, 2015, 8:48 PM
|
|
... has been woeful.
I get it, we don't have any history or pedigree, so we are a tough draw and not very attractive to high school kids. But he has to get some better athletes and shooters into the program. Our guards are OK, but are big men are woeful (and not really showing much improvement).

He coaches boring, white boy basketball.
Our players have shown flashes but we just aren't consistent. The only way we win is if we shoot well.

We have an all-Black team - and we lose all the time. Do they just not understand the game of BBall? Duke seems to win with White guys. Hmmm - I'm sensing a pattern here. Maybe it's NOT the coach - it's the players that don't know how to play the game. Well doggone - we've all been looking in the wrong direction for the problem. Get rid of the Black guys and recruit all-White guys. Problem solved.

And OP won how? With masterful offensive minded genius players? OP was win and die by the sword... Press press press. He never made half time or in game adjustments. His players hardly progressed nor improved from year to year. His own recruiting was woeful BC his teams free throw shooting percentages did not improve.
Tonights loss was inexcusable. Coach BB did not make adjustments fast enough, went to zone too late, and he stayed with a few guys too long as it was not their night tonight. Lastly he should have absolutely lit into some of the guys with the boneheaded plays they made and the settling for jumpers.
But with all that said...
Clemson was trying to win 11 straight over GA Tech and Clemson was not going to shoot anything like they did vs VA Tech. So they were due to stink on offense. They should have won, but didn't finish.
Coach BB should have known that would be the case with this team.
This team is not a NCAA team, but it is going to exceed preseason expectations.

oh wait no his first season was the only one we made the NCAAs in. Honestly BB got lucky and struck gold with KJ. Without him a year ago we're a mediocre team all 4 years since that tourney year.

He ran for the dough and was way overpaid and would rather live in Chicago than Clemson. I think he would have continued to do fairly well at Clemson had he stayed.

it was king of gimmicky. Any team that had good ball handlers would kill our press. we couldn't hit free throws if we threw it in the ocean. He was able to beat a bunch of OOC teams with better athletes, not better basketball players. His best year was 3rd in the ACC with no Pitt, UL, ex'Cuse, ND, and a Carolina team that finished with 5 wins in conference. Sure, he got us to the big dance but that was it. Brownell's play-in game win exceeded OP's tourney win-loss record.
I think he's trying to get better basketball players, not just athletes. I'd say we would have a team that looks a lot like UVA right now. The biggest problem is we don't have any consistent players we can count on. He has to mix and match line ups to find a hot hand. If we could just get some ### offense and stop these 4-6 minute scoring droughts we might win some games.
Is there a way to put the entire team on some bi-polar medication? They'll play great one game, then look like the aliens from Space Jam stole their abilities the next game. I figure our smartest coach is Winiecki, he shaves his head so he doesn't have to pull his hair out.

You mean if we don't make the ball go thru the basket, then we will lose?
####. Now I have it all figured out!
At least when it doesn't go in we still have a chance due to our elite defense.
24 hr turnaround for a road game = tough for anyone. We benefitted from that scenario earlier this year at home.
This boring white boy basketball has a group of guys who were picked last on the verge of an NCAA bid. OP ran from a roster with better talent than this one. Ran. As in the middle of the night so scared he wouldn't touch it ran. But we see what he is made of.
Go crawl back under your rock.

The problem is we live and die by our streaky shooting.
We don't play inside out because we have nobody that can make a move in the post.
We do play hard defense but you can't hold teams under 60 points every night especially in this league.
What has to happen for you to see that this is not a good basketball team and our program is not progressing under Brownell?

There are a lot of things you can not pick at and criticize, but the development of our post play is not one of them. Landry demands a double every time he touches the ball. Josh smith has actually become a decent ACC player. Djitte gets better every time he goes on the floor.
Thanks for reference point for what I am dealing with here. Nuff said.

Wow so we have great post play, elite defense, and a genius for a head coach.
Wonder why we haven't made the NCAA tournament in 4 years?

If you have ever flipped on a tv during march, then you would know what it takes.....
Guard play or lottery pick or 2 on the wings. Scorers. We lost that guy. The next one isn't ready yet.
Anything else I can help you understand? Maybe something a little more challenging like some motion concepts or defensive rotations?
