(WSU 10-15, 2-10) at (Charlotte 16-8, 10-2) GAME THREAD

And maybe the players are being filled with so many analytics that they cannot play.

I think this is involved.

I'd keep Rogers, but I doubt his handles or his D, and probably neither, can be fixed in one off season.

I agree. But yeah...I don't see how you show the best 3pt shooter in the league the door. Especially when you are a team full of poor 3pt shooters. I would just prefer he become a more specialized player surrounded by better players.

Unless there is another 40% 3pt shooter with a couple years of D1 experience that you can go get lol.

Thing is I’m open to being surprised. Ballard had MASSIVE improvement. Maybe they could do something similar for Rogers. It’s worth a try given his scoring threat.

I’ve never seen guards so bad as Cortes though. And I used to think Samajae was kinda bad…. This **** makes me miss him lmao

Even when Cortes "makes a play" it feels like it's a play that shouldn't have happened. The lobs are hap hazard ... the cross court passes are just begging to be picked off .. and often are.

Does everybody lose their man a lot or is it just a couple guys that do?
If Germany and Pohto arm wrestled, would nobody win?

Unacceptable to have heard this so many games this year. Playing for your university used to mean something. The transfer portal and NIL have a significant hand in that, I think.

The shack up era of collegiate sports has arrived.

Missed the live broadcast but recorded. Saw KP only played 7 min and several of the usual negative comments. Since I checked the box score I wasn't going to watch the recording but I wanted to see what was going on with KP. Has to be something said or done off the court. He was close to the end of the bench at the very start and throughout the game. Must be in PM's doghouse. His seven minutes of play were not bad at all. No shots taken, no bad defense, and three rebounds. There were numerous team turnovers the first half that led to an eleven point edge for Charlotte. That put us in a big hole and one they couldn't dig out of. That was the biggest story of the game........points off of turnovers. At least on TV I did not notice any bad body language by KP but wouldn't blame him much. Flashed open a couple times and posted up strong once but no one ever got him the ball. I am guessing he is frustrated. As for the game as a whole just another poor TEAM performance. Too much dribbling, no movement and only seven assists.

Just before KP got pulled he was not even half-assing it. Barely jogging back on defense...etc. He barely raised his hand on defense. Kind of just flailed his arm from several feet away. It was VERY easy to see. And obviously Mills saw it as well. He never saw the floor again.

If Pohto could have played this game sitting and scooting around in a rolling office chair he would have. He had a total "DGAF" air about him.

[RoyalShock]

I think the season is beginning to take its toll. Regardless of how soft Pohto plays sometimes I never got the sense he didn't care or didn't play hard. He is who he is. But that's no excuse for going out there and not giving your all for your team. I'm glad Mills made him a spectator for the rest of the game.

[Dan]

KP got a rebound and basically let a Charlotte player take it out of his hands. I think he got pulled after that.

Pretty selective considering all of the mistakes I am seeing numerous players making without consequences.

[Singeril]

Once again, KP didn’t have “The Right Energy”. It’s been that way much of the year. And now we hear of another player saying that they weren’t “Dialed in”. Man, I’m so sick of these lame words after each game coming from a player.

You're so deep on Pohto's meat that you just ignored how poorly he played to hop on here and make this post.
