Jackson was freakin awesome for a while. Then his quote in the papers today "catching the ball became the hardest thing ever" (paraphrasing) summed it up.
I like the team, and we have some impact players. Need to put it all together and be more consistent.

Man, I just wish I could muster the intellect to use "really really good" and "really really bad" in the same paragraph. Then I'd be on top of the world!
Heights {l Wrote}:Jekyl and Hyde performance. The first half they were flat out explosive, Reggie just dominated the first half, amazing. He was doing anything he wanted to even took over the point from Biko for spells with mixed results. I'm a big critic of Sanders, but he played great in the first half. He did not settle for shots, worked hard to the hoop..although I was surprised to see he is not very good at finishing once he gets to the hoop, but that could come.
Then SC came out with end to end pressure and the small lineup wilted. Trapani and Sanders for some reason kept putting the ball to the floor when trapped. I mean this is hoops 101, don't guys get coached anymore at any level?.
Elmore is a great defender, even with that no-conscience gunner #2 he stayed in front of him.
Reggie must work hard, his dribbling has dramatically improved, not ready to take over from Biko full time but much better.
I was mystified that Roche rather than Raji was in there at crunchtime, but damn if he doesn't drop a couple of clutch shots near the end that were huge. Still don't get it though.
The starting lineup just did not hold up in the second half to non-stop pressure. Sanders, Trapani, Raji back on the pine for long stretches. Some odd lineups out there to try and stop the bleeding. Small lineups (good ones) should have no problem with pressure. This is what we saw almost every ACC games last year, and so I think the second half is a preview of the ACC play.

You are a fucking loser, but that is way awesomeness.

Wins? Pretty weak twb. As I recall you have been constantly and without provocation been calling me a stat geek recently. Remembering a conversation that took place within the last couple days to defend myself, my God - I am such a loser!
It's always interesting the garbage people spew when they have nothing better to say.

We can overcome Trapani not being good so long as he is on the bench. But, we can't overcome him sucking and continuing to get minutes.

This stat geek thing is particularly funny since I always back up stats with analysis. But people easily defeated can only defend themselves by pinning a term like stat geek on me. So be it - just a message board after all.

"Continually attacked"? Wasn't it just one guy, RyanBC?
