We don’t lose by 20 on the road though. We lose (generally speaking) by 2-4.
Super Stubborn Steve Forbes or we just don't have enough dudes?
1. Forbes on developing a bench (gee, a guy off the bench scoring 7-8 points last night is all we needed). We need a spark off the bench imo. Any spark. Maybe a walk-on for defense? Clark for defense? Anything. We probably have 2 more road wins right now, if we had any bench production whatsoever.
- "Why would I do that? Develop a bench? I am just trying to get the starters ready to play."
Watching PFred and 3-M, it seems like both could give us something. Anything. Defense, hustle? Marsh has been awful, Ituka done, Clark looks athletic, Canka looked decent, Monsanto has 0 mobility, so I guess none of them are ready.
Last night, I put a more physical guy (Sallis, Clark?) on Markus Burton, who we made look like Immanuel Quickley or Cam Sexton or some NBA ready PG.
2. Now, Steve's other super-stubborn stance on free throws, to his credit, he's making that work - we lead the league in FT%.
I don't agree with him at all on that, but it's working. We simply never practice free throws. Do that in your individual workouts (in a cozy, quiet gym, with zero of the distractions you face in a game). But it works, somehow.
