Wichita State at Cincinnati Game Thread

[ShockerFever]

No amount of coaching can keep players from turning the ball over, missing open shots and giving up offensive rebounds...that’s on the players

What do we do during practice?

[Dan]

Jack up threes would be my guess

[Maizerunner08]

Also, Cincy effort level is higher than ours. AM only guy I see putting in 110%

[LoneStar48]

I'm so tired of SHJ and his me first attitude on offense. He's never seen a big man he thought he should throw the ball to

So coaches arent responsible for teaching those things in practice? And recruiting guys that maybe have a little basketball IQ? Maybe changing things during the game when other things arent working?

Coaches deserve plenty blame also

[shockerfan]

Thank you for mentioning that. Yet ANOTHER coaches responsibility. Get your guys ready to play!

[1979Shocker]

The best case scenario for SHJ on that play would have been a blocking foul, so he made the correct choice.

[LoneStar48]

Maybe so, 1979Shocker, but I thought he had time to set up and take the charge. Different perspectives

[Hurley]

Strange to me how Asbjorn gets his head ripped off no matter what he does, yet SHJ gets a free pass for blatantly stupid decisions time after time.

[Dan]

Coach probably doesn’t wanna set off his anxiety

[shoxlax]

That was a chicken **** post Dan. Blame his game, his bad shots, whatever but lose the personal bs.

[Dan]

You think i’m joking? Different people respond to different coaching techniques

[Dan]

RB, just not seeing it. RT, same thing

if you’re looking for additional scholly options, look no further than here.

[shock-it-to-me]

4 points in last 9 minutes
21% shooting
out rebounded by 7
not going to get it done.

[shoxlax]

Dennis has had 3 or 4 open looks and missed. Torres is okay for 1-2 minutes but we are not the same team with JB in the game. If we could rebound out of a zone I would stay stick with it, but we seem to be unable to check anybody out when we are guarding space.

Rod Brown makes Rashard and Evan look like Steph Curry.

JUCO caliber player that we're stuck with.

SHJ is a senior. He can do whatever he wants. Loyalty.

[TheShocktocles]

I bet Rod Brown looks good in the gym. Not so much the gymnasium

Rod Brown gives us nothing. I had hope for him. But he is no threat offensively, he doesn't dribble well, and not strong enough to play the 4 position.

[shoxlax]

He is a 6-7 PF lacking weight playing in a mans league. Good kid and teammate but unless you can push people around at that height inside you will struggle.

[Maizerunner08]

We need more guys wiling to drive and dish...

[ShockerPrez]

Our defense is good enough, sans the rebounding. If we can come out and actually make a few shots early we may have a shot.

Normally, I would say averages say we should shoot much better in the 2nd half, but.... i dunno. We aren't getting any shots at the rim, so that will need to change.

[Ashockalypse]

The defense at least wasn’t horrific

[Maizerunner08]

So who is going to take up MMs scoring next season? By committee?
