I really don't see us winning many more road games. Especially with the way we've played the last 4 or 5 games. We look tired and physically beaten up... Not to mention we are a very thin team to begin with... Size and available players that can contribute. Tomorrow nights game is reallyBIG because I think it's probably our easiest road game left, along with LSU.@ Fla,Vandy, andSouth Carolina all looks very difficult now. I'm just not feeling this team right now... maybe a couple of impressive wins can lead me to think otherwise.

teams from here on out try the Bammer plan and extend the defense and force us to attack the basket while doing their best to keep it out of Dee's hands...I'm surprised it hasnt been done before now...anybody playing zone vs us is playing into our hands

I admittedly don't read many of your basketball posts, but I thought you said Stansbury's teams suck against the zone?

that the only zone offense we seem to have is standing around and launching 3-balls- which is actually a strength for this team. Teams forcing us to put the ball on the floor and attack the basket give us problems because of our lack of any semblance of an offense. Not to mention the horrendous screens we attempt to set.

We are Crooms version in basketball of the West Coast Offense

I am no basketball guru, but it seems to me that benock, lewis, and phil have to get more minutes. I know lewis and benock are not playing like they should, but them playing ten ormore minutes would help us greatly. If Jarvis, Dee, and Barry were playing 30ish minutes where they weren't exhausted, that could be better than playing the entire second half tired as hell. Maybe, maybe not. Feel free to tell me I'm an idiot if I'm wrong.

I agree about your first statement, but osby comes in for augustus. He isn't playing 37ish minutes a game. Phil comes in for Augustus sometimes or maybe one of the guards. Neither one relieves varnado. It has obviously been hard on him playing these kinds of minutes. Wendell is very underdeveloped, but he is competent. Benock can contribute if he would just shot the 17ing ball. I don't really know who can sub for Dee. The only other PG is when Barry switches over to PG, but he is already playing 36 minutes.

That's a terrible analogy. <div>
</div><div>Crooms actually tried to run a ****** offense that didn't cater to his athletes, instead of just letting his athletes play. (see: Omarr Conner, Derek Pegues)</div><div>
</div><div>Stans is the exact opposite. He just lets 'em ball. Sure there's an inbounds play and a halfcourt set every now and then, but for the most part, Stans just let's em play. Don't compare Stans to Croom. Croom never won anything except the Egg Bowl and the Liberty Bowl.</div><div>
</div><div>You continually confuse your mouth with your *******.</div>

of the three at Arkansas, at Auburn, and at LSU. One of these teams will slip up and beat us on the road. I dont see us winning any away East games (at Vandy, at Florida, at South Carolina)</p>
