High Point (12/6/24)

[GMG_Dallas]

Don't care what the records say, there's no reason to lose this team. We're just playing like garbage and have nobody stepping. Just a roster full of role players.

Maybe somebody on the bench should be given a shot? Or maybe we can just keep grinding, winning close games we should lose and losing close games we should win.

Looking grim.

[GMG_Dallas]

And about needing to give a bench player a chance, we're being outrebounded 30 to 18. We're going to get murdered by Memphis.

[meangreenfaninno]

How can we possibly already be in the bonus?  There has to be a mistake!

[greenminer]

That ol' cliche comes to mind: There's going to be like 2 games you win that you shoulda lost, and 2 other games you lose that you shoulda won.

This is potential bubble talk killer, and frustrating as hell.

[meaniegreenie]

Needed something from Wright.

[Matt from A700]

Missing FTs at the worst time. We started 10-10.

[Green Otaku]

That was a perfect example, did Walker even touch him?

[Tonto]

Love him or hate him but there is no Jason Edwards on this team to get hot when need it

[BleedingGreen]

I still like this team and think better than last year’s team.

Good topic here.  Might be interesting to see how we made last year work, and why it looks bleak this year.

It's too early to have one of the losses we should have won. It's just going to be an average year.

There's no Chris Davis on this team when you need him.

Could also use T. Mitch at the rim right about now.

Anyone else on your wishlist?

Missing an A Scott who can guard all 5 positions and missing a scorer who can take over. This is as average of a primary rotation as we've had recently. Not bad, just nobody stands out either.

No, but the rim did… 🙄

Missing some key free throws that could really make it interesting.

Not ready to make that leap myself, but I getchya

The only game I missed this year was Mcneese.  I thought we looked better this year than last.  But this game has me concerned.  No depth little talent in paint and no one in the backcourt is stepping forward.  This looks like a middle of pack AAC team that I hoped would be top 5.

Wow you are an accomplished smart ass.  Hope you’re proud.  Didn’t say I wish he was back but sunny see that type of offensive talent on roster.  Care to counterpoint or just be a dick.

Newell, and Massie look like busts. Sissoko hasn't improved from last year. Scott, Jones, Edwards, Nolan, Allen are missed.

Lorient is the only notable pickup.

Too early to judge .  Let’s get a few games into conference.

[Andrew]

Another ghost foul…. I understand the fouls are equal, but the way they are called is definitely one sided and affecting the way we play.

I don't understand how these "professional" refs make these horrible calls game after game.

This team has looked better than last year's team until tonight. Will agree this is a really bad loss, but remember last year's bunch lost to a 13-20 Fordham team on a neutral site. Super disappointing tonight for sure.
