re: Alabama basketball: The team nobody wants to play right now.

How the hell do you gameplan against these guys?...they can't rebound...there's no threat in the paint....they've got no "stop him and you win" player to contend with...they don't shoot free throws well...they constantly turn the ball over. They've got to be a nightmare to play until somebody figures them out.
It feels like a rag-tag team of guys that have a lot of deficiencies, can't do any one thing great, but work together to make shite happen and play with a ton of heart.

There are 5-6 top 100 players on this Bama team that aren't Obasohan, Kessens or Edwards... Bama fans have been trying to convince themselves that this team is full of walk ons or something. These were mostly all State players and Class Players of the year. LOL yes Grant had a knack for regressing players but Bama has some good talent.

All they really needed was coaching... we've barely missed several tourneys with Grant... we had the players but not the coaching.
