Yes, my mistake.Huh? Reid is shooting almost 90% from the line this year - 33/37.

We didn't resort to anything. We took, and missed, 7 three point shots before the 16:00 mark TV timeout. Reid took one 49 seconds into the game. That is not resorting, that is awful coaching.We had to resort to shoot 3’s because Cam and Boopie couldn’t get to the basket or get going period. Carr was the only post scoring presence with Reid in foul trouble and several times he kicked it out for 3’s when they would double team. Totally agree with the 3’s early in the shot clock. Would rather have Parker or Damari shoot a contested 3 opposed to their open ones tbh.
I bet you’re fun to watch a game with.We have one of the best offenses in the country against bad to mediocre teams. Said offense shits the bed against anyone decent, and especially on the road. That is the sign of a bad coach. We are mentally weak, undisciplined, miss crucial FTs, take awful shots, stupid fouls, and stupid turnovers. All that is all on the coach. He is a great guy, great face of of the program, great at identifying talent in the portal, and a seems like a great hype man. But he has proven over and over and over that he is a bad in-game coach. If we don't have an obvious superior talent advantage, we are fucked. Duke tried all night to give us that game and we didn't take it. But hey, maybe things will be different in the 28th year.
I respect people’s opinions, but pal…I don’t think you have a fucking clue what you’re talking about.We didn't resort to anything. We took, and missed, 7 three point shots before the 16:00 mark TV timeout. Reid took one 49 seconds into the game. That is not resorting, that is awful coaching.
News flash buddy.I respect people’s opinions, but pal…I don’t think you have a fucking clue what you’re talking about.
Yea but like 4 of those were on the same possesion and wide open.We didn't resort to anything. We took, and missed, 7 three point shots before the 16:00 mark TV timeout. Reid took one 49 seconds into the game. That is not resorting, that is awful coaching.
holy shit you should email this to forbesIf we want to improve, we must raise the intensity of our defense in practice. We must be able to reproduce in practice the stifling defense that we encounter when we play better teams. And we must practice like that from day one, all the time. Right now we are a much poorer team when we have to play against strong defensive pressure. The shots that go in against weaker teams often roll out against the better defenses. Why? Because we don't seem to be sufficiently accustomed to playing against tough persistent pressure in practice.
14:51 On 29-23 Wake (62 PA/40)anyone have access to on/off splits? curious about our defensive efficiency with and without reid on the court.
Efton should be shown this. Stop with the silly fouls.14:51 On 29-23 Wake (62 PA/40)
25:09 OFF 40-54 Duke (86 PA/40)
I have spent waaaaaay too much time on compiling and analyzing +/- data and lineup data but haven't pulled that yet. Probably will for the season later this week.
Efton 14 games ex bottom 100 opponents.
ON: 382 minutes +118 (+12.4 per 40)
OFF: 183 minutes -1 (-0.2 per 40)
Carr's numbers are even crazier -- and his presence on the court is possibly even more important to our overall success -- but these guys are 1/2 in some order.
Total Ex B100: ON: +159 (+10.1 per 40); OFF: -42 (-12.1 per 40)
Before Efton: ON 184 min +31 (+6.8 per 40); OFF 21 min: -26 (-48.5 per 40)
After Efton: ON +128 (+11.5); OFF -16 (-5.4)
Definitely, but when the talent level dropped off after Dino, we just haven’t been on the same plane with Duke. Prior to that no excuse for not getting a win with CP3, Teague & Johnson, somebody. We are finally getting back to a decent talent level.Definitely seemed like we were a step slow which is no surprise after the major effort it took not to get swept by State on Saturday.
And despite the player turnover through the years, at this point the long losing streak in Cameron is probably weighing on our guys' minds and affecting their performance. We really need that monkey off our backs soon. It's getting really embarrassing, like Clemson@UNC-level embarrassing.
I don’t know about the coaching aspect of it but I was there with a buddy and we were wondering the same thing with this early barrage of terrible 3’s! And I certainly don’t want Reid taking one early in the shot clock. Yes he is wide open—Duh. I would leave him out there wide open if I was the defense.I respect people’s opinions, but pal…I don’t think you have a fucking clue what you’re talking about.
I knew it.It would be very "this season" for us if UVA were to lose to Pitt at home tonight right before we play them.
