NIT 2024: Next in a Long Line of Basketball Disappointments

[Deaconblue]

One example just to illustrate my point that Forbes doesn’t coach people up. Go look at Clark’s offer list. He was a legit recruit. He can’t even see the court for a bubble team with no depth? Why is that???

Because of what we saw.

Coach him up. He has raw talent.

 

[awakegirl]

It just appears that we run no offense at all a lot of the time.

 

[WindyCityDeac]

Stringing together a few postseason wins to show the guys how that’s done isn’t important?

nope

Yeah, I’ve lost all faith that this staff coaches players up too. Heck, even Manning or somebody on his staff coached up Collins.

 

[EatLeadCommie]

he’s 33.3% from three in conference and i think the expectation is he’s a better shooter than that (he drains them in warmups and is a great free throw shooter)

The problem with him shooting threes is he isn't there to grab the rebound.

 

[BigDeacEnergy]

Don’t run those dumbass lineups until we have a lead Steve

 

[liveanddiedeac]

The problem with him shooting threes is he isn't there to grab the rebound.

And he frequently misses.

 

[daaberry]

The team is jacking up 3s and Parker hasn’t shot in his first start.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

The problem with him shooting threes is he isn't there to grab the rebound.

neither is the guy guarding him, who is probably a good shot blocker / rim protector. having a center who is a threat from three is a huge asset.

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Reid just isn’t a great shooter.

 

[PhDeac]

Carr and Boopie came to play.

I’m fine with Reid taking one or two threes a game as a 35% 3-point shooter. He’s not too far off that. It should be part of his game.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

Reid just isn’t a great shooter.

he was literally our best free throw shooter this year

 

[liveanddiedeac]

he was literally our best free throw shooter this year

So, he’s not a great shooter with guys guarding him.

 

[deactherunner]

Feels like forever since pfred made a three. He's still getting steals at least.

 

[BigDeacEnergy]

I can’t remember the last time Parker made a 3

 

[dreadthedeacs]

This is annoying

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Even our “shooter” can’t shoot.

 

[awakegirl]

Hahahahaha. This is humiliating.

 

[93Deac]

Fuck this. I have better things to do.
