My take (in addition to those above):

Game like Friday night vs. UB:

Minnie will win us a few of them, but the ones he doesn't win for us, we'll lose.

As a team, we have a 'puncher's chance', that is, Minnie gives us a chance to win some games we shouldn't but if he (and Jackson) are missing too many shots we might lose some games we should win.

The schedule gets easier from here out.

Translation: if Minnie plays really well, the team has a better chance to win games. If he plays poorly, the team has a greater chance to lose.

And the team plays some bad teams now, so all is well. We have a chance to compile some meaningless wins!

Buffalo is a good team we have not won at Akron at any time Murphy has been coach but almost won. Need to regroup and pass the ball more on offense. I think we might in on Javion Hamlet former Buffalo signee at Northwest Florida, he might be the impact guard on offense that we are missing.
