I Believe We Are Improving

[PingPongKing]

yea right....we are disimproving. we played good against georgetown lost by single digits as well as #6(at the time they were ranked) michigan state. now we are getting blown out to northern iowa. stutz needs to get stronger. ellis is doing terrible. shox only hope is murry & hannah. they don't play up-tempo which gets fans into the game.

Ya, I'm lost on that one..

[Zardoz]

I agree with most of what MikeShox said along with with what SubGod22 said. I think Matt was better as a floor general, but Hannah is a better scorer. Backup point guard is a wash. Mekel wanted the ball at the end of the game and that wasn't always a good thing.

[KC Shox]

We are improving at getting worse. :D

[ShockerFever]

Still Top 4. Book it.

I'm not trying to get all the rational people to get it. I'm trying to make sure a certain someone gets it..

Judging by his lack of posting....

[pinstripers]

No, we are not improving.

[ShockRef]

No, we are not improving.

Agreed.
There are a multitude of problems and they will not be fixed before Sunday afternoon. This is going to take more time than originally thought. 8)

I'm not seeing any improvement, jnless G'town and Mich St totally overlooked WSU and only played just hard enough to win the games.

I don't think the Shox look as good today as they did then. Scouting is better in Valley games and the Shox have some weaknesses that are being exploited by Valley teams that some of our earlier opponents couldn't know.

I'm not seeing improvement, but I'm seeing a lot of room for improvement.

[ShockCounselor]

I agree Shockref and Pinstripers. Pretty discouraging performance. I think we all knew it could be a bumpy ride this year but it's hard to suggest there has been improvement ... individually or collectively ... from the beginning of the season to now. THAT is what is discouraging. I personally held no expectations for this team this year other than to see growth in players, decision making and execution. Still ... if this team could hit shots and free throws, that would cure a lot of ills and compensate for what has been an inconsistent if not mediocre defense.

We did get open shots tonight...still the matter of putting them in. I thought the offense ran pretty well tonight, but it is only good if you put the ball in the hole.
