Malachi my goodness you could see the drop step back to his strong hand coming from a mile away...

We give up the most trash 3s at end of shot clock in history and I guess 3 seconds isn’t a thing because Missouri player took 5 dribbles and a drop step to score that last one.

The last defense for the Pope cultists: no coach will want to come here if we fire someone after 2 years.

Translation: we have nothing left in terms of real arguments to defend Pope.
I know you are capable of considering more possibilities than one. When you are angry, does it nullify your ability to think objectively? Or do you just give in entirely to your bias?

I hate it for Pope because I wanted him to succeed. This ain’t it and won’t ever be it. Last year was lightning in a bottle with 5th year seniors and a unicorn in Amari Williams, a Sharpshooter in Brea and a DPOY candidate in Butler.

I don’t believe this any more. It’s all about the money. We will get who we pay for.
Na man. Everybody’s got money. Players are getting money no matter where they go. All this stuff with Pope absolutely does 100% matter and affect recruiting.

It is in maturing that we are reborn. We are being called to explore the grid itself as an interface between intuition and guidance. The explosion of potential is now happening team wide.

This is the worst offensive flow I’ve ever seen with a UK team. Absolutely no teamwork.
They look like they have never played nor wanted to play together. Aberdeen will dribble dribble dribble and Oweh just has this frustrated look on his face.

There is something very wrong here. These players are far better than they are playing. And Pope is a far better coach than he is coaching.

I don’t know what the disconnect is but it’s disconnected.
I think good 3 point shooting covers a lot of scars and we just don't have it. We labor to score and if you can't make 3's, it's so much worse.

You can almost see the thought bubble over each guy's head when he gets the ball: "Oh I need to do something here for the NBA scouts.". Clank.
