Exactly right. If any team is going to play "small ball" like ODU has been forced to play this season, they better at least have multiple above average 3 point threats. It also helps if they have a post up big man that can help to keep the floor spread or when the outside shooters are having an off day. ODU has neither ..... but they are playing "small ball".

We lost to JMU at home. Bottom line: We aren't good.

Agreed - we need to start Monday to have any hope. But I’m going to go against the grain and say we have potential to make the NCAAT. Too many moving parts recently to know what we have. I think this team can hunt if they figure it out.

The team has some pieces, but we're a few players short of being good. We have some players forced into action that clearly aren't ready, Green and Oliver aren't getting it done, and Kalu can't stay on the floor. Wade and Curry are our offense.

We need a big man and a sniper badly.

Unfortunately, a big man is not in our future for this year. But we will be a different team if X and AJ start showing up. We’ll be a dangerous team if they start playing to their potential. Push our record aside - and I like our chances in the CUSAT w/a bye.
We are 18 games into the season. X has been what he is going to be. As the focal point of the defense, he just isn't good enough to carry the load at this point. Oliver isn't going to all of a sudden become a 15ppg scorer in this offense that doesn't run any plays for him either now that defenses have figured out he is the only perimeter threat on the team. There are games where the matchups will allow X and Oliver to thrive, but they are not going to consistently be a lot different than what you are seeing now.

I expect X to improve because he played better last year and is clearly in a slump. He hit big shots last year in multiple games when we needed them, and played lock down defense. He is playing below his potential and I expect that to change. He just needs a break-out game to regain his confidence. I can’t say the same for AJ because we haven’t seen a lot of him, but he seems to have played significantly better his first three games with us. Perhaps I’m an eternal optimist, but I think we can win the CUSAT if we start clicking.

Green also wasn’t be guarded by their best players as they were busy with Caver and BJ. I think this seasons Green is more of what Green truly is as a player. Not good.

Hopefully he continues to develop and understand his role. He could have made better decisions down the stretch that could have resulted in a different outcome.
I really like Curry and this team would be a complete disaster without him, but boy did he blow it down the stretch. Going to the rim with 18 seconds left in a tie game is an inexcusable mistake. The foul is really secondary to the clock management for me.

Agreed - Curry is the silver lining to this disappointing season. He played such a great game, but just had a brain cramp on the last possession. It was a terrible possession. Hopefully, he benefits from the experience and plays smarter next time.

Respectfully disagree - he is getting open looks, just not knocking down the shots. We should be able to count on him for 10-20 PPG.

The last two possessions were misserable. And I’ll agree that Curry has been pretty good lately but he was aweful the first 12 games. He had a good spurt or two like the end of the JMU game. His release is ridiculously slow on his jumper. He shoots a horrendous percentage on jump shots. They dare him to shoot. I do like his ability to get to the rim. He finishes well with his left. He shoots his foul shots well. He’s a good athlete. He’s playing solid defense and he’s becoming a better point guard. I’ll give him credit for some of those things.
My silver lining to this season has been Jason wade. He’s our best all around player. He brings it every game. He’s not a great shooter obviously but his stroke looks much better and he’s putting in the work. He’s the only player that brings it mentally every game. One of the best competitors we’ve ever had, since I’ve been following the team (30 years).

That’s rather harsh. He may not be living up to the expectations we as fans had for him this season, but he in no way “sucks”. The guy plays hard and is a mighty fine D1 ball player. He might not shine as the “star player”, but he’s certainly talented and would be welcome on any CUSA team I’m sure.

I disagree. Nothing mighty fine about him this season at all. They wouldn’t be knocking his door down to get him on their teams.

Agree with your perception of Wade. He is our silver lining. He is exactly the type of player you need to have on a championship team. Not saying this is a championship team by any stretch but if we do manage to have one in the near future, Wade will have a lot to do with it. He is tough as nails and knows how to play.

Obviously....Wade is a good player and every team needs a guy like him. The issue is the others.

My silver lining to this season has been Jason wade. He’s our best all around player. He brings it every game. He’s not a great shooter obviously but his stroke looks much better and he’s putting in the work. He’s the only player that brings it mentally every game. One of the best competitors we’ve ever had, since I’ve been following the team (30 years).
Agree with your perception of Wade. He is our silver lining. He is exactly the type of player you need to have on a championship team. Not saying this is a championship team by any stretch but if we do manage to have one in the near future, Wade will have a lot to do with it. He is tough as nails and knows how to play.

You must smoke some really good stuff.

Obviously....Wade is a good player and every team needs a guy like him. The issue is the others.

Yeah, I love Wade. Reminds me of Finney, he NEVER takes a play off. He sure ain't the problem. But, we got lot's of other problems.

He had a good spurt or two like the end of the JMU game. His release is ridiculously slow on his jumper. He shoots a horrendous percentage on jump shots. They dare him to shoot. I do like his ability to get to the rim. He finishes well with his left. He shoots his foul shots well. He’s a good athlete. He’s playing solid defense and he’s becoming a better point guard. I’ll give him credit for some of those things.

Imagine how good he would be if he was the size of Finney !

??? They are almost exactly the same size. And Wade is only a sophomore. He may grow.

They are not close. Wade MAYBE is 6-3 on a good day. Finney was a true 6-5 and much longer.

If Wade was 6-5 he would not be in CUSA. Wade is 6-3 on a good day.
