I'm done for the night. No reason for me to not have an enjoyable time rather than get mad over something I can't change.

Peace

This is embarrassing. I really hate to say this, but I can't remember a Barbee team looking this fundamentally bad.

That still doesn't explain the lack of discipline in every other facet of the game.

It tells you exactly what we already knew. We are a perimeter shooting team with only a few guys that can actually shoot.

Well, Barbee easily had teams that did look this bad fundamentally.

Did he have teams that looked WORSE fundamentally? No.

I remember last year the first couple of games I saw Bowers play I though "wow, this is gonna be another Chris Porter situation, he'll be an All American." Now, it didn't take long to correct my mistake.

I have never been more wrong in my life.

God, we're so fricked. We're not going to be able to field a team at this point.


Is it too late to go back to Hawaii and bring Jack Purchase back?

Instead of yelling at the refs, Bruce needs to chew butt, they look like they have quit.

I watched almost every game under Barbee. I haven't forgotten anything. We had some seriously untalented teams, but this team is fundamentally horrible tonight and Bowers is the cause of most of it. Bruce needs to sit his arse on the bench. Anyone can turn the ball over and miss layups.

Barbee didn't have to play 2 walkons in the rotation.


The only player left from the Barbee era is Granger. Everyone on our team is young, juco transfer or first year Pearl player

Put Bowers on the bench and put in Waddell? So go from a guy who turns the ball over to a guy who turns the ball over and can't rebound?

So you're saying the total lack of basketball fundamentals on the court is totally Pearl's responsibility?

Is it not concerning to you that Bowers is still running around like it's the wild west out there? He needs a reality check. If that takes putting Waddell in, then so be it.

Remember the first 4 or 5 games this year when it looked like we were a good shooting team?

Same here.. This is the first time I've cut off an AU game. Terrible display.

The guy passed up an open Harris to twirl the ball behind his back and put it off the top of the backboard when the game was close.

I'm cool with Waddell getting more minutes. He can't score or rebound but at least knows how to take a charge. Let's just get everyone into foul trouble.

Yeah, cause we had Dunans to create shots.
