Albany Game Thread (Wednesday 12/28. 6pm ACC Network)

One thing I know for certain after that first half is that we will not see much of Taine in ACC play

Don’t know that I’ve ever heard Cory call a Wake game where a Childress wasn’t a player or coach, but I’d bet he still mentions his boy Randolph. Several times. Randolph calls a UVA game…0 mentions of Cory.

Was waiting for this comment, lol. It’s correct, it all changed with this and blew all of our minds.

But Morsell wasn’t a dead-eye shooter in HS or on the travel circuit the way McKneely was.

Morsell’s principal attributes were on-ball D and aggression in getting to the rack.

Weird that Papi pronounces his own name wrong.

Morsell was a very good shooter in AAU ball and HS if I remember correctly. Described as a three level scorer and almost made the USA team

Actually Casey was pretty much a 3 and D guy. About like he is now at State. Just had one of the worst college adjustments ever, shooting is where it shows up most. Not comfortable won’t shoot well.

Drew Carter… is this his first play-by-play game?

Did some of this late v Miami as well. It does sometimes backfire on him, but anyone on the team showing aggressiveness gets a thumbs-up from me.

Bottom line, it should not be this hard for us to score, especially against a team like this and it seems to be getting harder as the season goes along.

Its sides. We had these same problems last year. And we had them the year after the natty

Do they need to show that ad with the fat fitness model every commercial break?

Maybe but to me it’s as simple as IMac and BVP were supposed to substantially improve our shooting and help space the floor for others to operate. That has not happened

The way to survive a shooting slump is to stay aggressive driving the paint and getting to the line. Have to get those free points. I know that becomes more difficult with teams able to sag deeper into the lane when you can’t hit a 3, but sometimes you just gotta find a way like Armaan has done tonight.

The primary issue is that when we shoot, we miss. It ain’t the offense.

The solution is obvious: we should stop shooting.

Armaan finding his shot is a welcomed sign.
