Then you have their leading scorer Jeremy Harris who is more of a driver but still a career 34.2% from three.


He shot just as many 3s as everything else combined. Also convenient that you use his career percentage when he shot 27% from 3 last year, in their most successful year.

They had 5 shooters who had a better three point percentage than Kira lewis, who was our best three point shooter.


Again, nope. They had a guy shooting 6.5 attempts from 3 every game at a 27% clip last year. Their second leader in minutes played.

Percentage wise, Ingram was our best shooter this year.

I do understand how it works. It gets their mediocre three point shooters a ton of open shots.

Like, I told you pages ago, their shooters weren't exceptional. They weren't bad either. But, they scored so much because of pace and volume.

Okay ya'll win.

Buffalo had terrible shooters and were ranked in the top 25 most of the year, had the 5th highest scoring offense, and had the most 80 point games of any team in the country.

I can only hope we suck so bad.

You don't think the same thing about Fleming?

Nobody said any of that. We told you their shooters weren't spectacular. That doesn't mean the team wasn't very good.

Obviously Fleming didnt play last year but from his Highlight tape he has a little bit of offense to him IMO.

No ones saying they suck. The fact that they efficiently scored the 5th highest PPG in the nation on pedestrian 33% from three (210th in the nation) is more impressive than if they shot 40% from three.

He is an offensive liability and a turnover machine. In our last 4 games, where all we needed was to win one game to get in the tournament, Jones turned the ball over 14 times. In our last 3 games of the year he had 9 turnovers and 9 points. In a close at Arkansas, nearing the end of the game, we had a one on three fast break and instead of passing it to a wide open guy he took it himself, hit it off his own knee and it went out of bounds. I don't know what ya'll see in him but to me he is horribad.


I agree with you man, I think Herb is frick1ing awful. I understand we’ve had bad coaching, but sometimes players just are what they are. If you don’t believe me, go watch Braxton Key. He’s EXACTLY the same as he was, even with Virginia coaching.

Bro when you shoot that much at that pace all it takes is 1 or 2 hot stretches a game to accumulate these points. I cant tell you how many times this year Auburn would be shooting terribly get hot for 2 or 3 minutes and be at almost 80 points at the end of the game.

I don't mean this as a personal attack, but over the last week or so I've noticed that you have some absolutely terrible basketball takes imho.

From what I’ve seen if Fleming, I don’t think he’s as horrible as Galin. Hell, if Fleming only has 2 moves, thats 1 move better than Galin.

What I see in him is a guy that was asked to do too much, and was placed in roles that he's not comfortable in. He has shown some good passing abilities at times, but he's not a primary ball handler that you should be running your offense through. And for whatever reason, Avery seemed to put him in those situations quite often. He is a guy that should be cutting towards the basket looking for alley-oops and put backs. He's also a guy that can excel in fast break opportunities.

And on defense you can put him on the other teams best perimeter player and let him hound the guy all game. When other team's are playing small-ball he can guard the 1 through 4 positions. We've also seen him fly down the court and get some highlight worthy blocks from behind.

He just needs a competent coach that knows how to develop players. Maybe Oats is that guy
