Yeah, pretty simple-minded thinking. An offer should have been there for him to take. But it wasn't and time to move on. Hopefully they fill that void with a player that can be just as productive. In this day and age, it's difficult to care about players getting hosed down.
Thanks, I was unaware of that. I am surprised that they didn't exercise that option. I don't have access to the numbers but I would guess that viewership was down. Perhaps the non conference game between Army and Navy had a major positive impact.
From what I've seen in the last few games is they like to press with length. Wright and Jossell are the best ball handlers, but are the 2 shortest on our team and struggle with getting trapped, so Hodge has switched to Massie or Floyd bringing the ball up who aren't point guards. We also aren't punishing them when we break the press because the other teams know we are going to back off and take our time, they don't have to worry about a fast break.
If the other team is going to defend us that hard I'd like to see us aggressively drive through them and make them foul us.
I've been really happy about the way Sissoko has been playing the last couple of games. His game has always been more about getting a pass and going at the bucket and not so much just posting up, he looks to finally get where he is supposed to be during offensive plays, he's been aggressive going up for rebounds. Let's hope he continues to play this way.
Stone got 3 mins, we basically payed 7 yesterday. I'm surprised none of the other guards on the bench got any minutes.
