Yeah. I used to think it was a lot of inexperience. But even with experience the talent ceiling of the current jimmy and joes just isn’t good or great.

Give me a 1 year powerforward, TJ Power with 3 years left, a guard handler (Chance Mallory or Trent Perry) and a wing (Daniel Skillings?) this off season. And Tony ditching help principles on defense.

Contested shot at the buzzer goes in. Seems to always happen on the road this year…

Teams just shoot it with such confidence against us.

Blake was showing hard on the hedge instead of the flattening that was fairly successful against VT.

Ah, yes. Good D, well defended tough shot as the shot clock expires. Money, Ga Tech.

Minor needs to learn how to use his left hand on a reverse layup. Dude gets stuck under the rim so often.

Yeah honestly a lot of shots been well defended by us.

1 step forward. 2 steps back.

GT should be ashamed we are still even in the game. We are playing atrociously.

Oh my god this lineup makes me want to gouge my eyes out. How in the world does Tony think this works at all?

Blake is awful at hedging. I’ve been saying it all season. He stays consistently too high.

I like a Bond Dunn Minor frontline but would like to see some threats to score with them

Less minutes for rohde please. He rarely comes out and its puzzling.

I just don’t understand how we have 8/9 rotation players, and nobody is a pure shooter, even Reece. We need extremely easy looks to finish, and even a 3rd of those rim out.

Issue is none of them have shown that ability. The scoring has to come from somewhere. Per 40 min this lineup might only give up 10 points but score 5

He has to get 30 minutes

I would be curious to hear if it’s an assigned thing or if it’s a mental lapse… he showed on essentially every hedge made me think it was more strategy.

Most frustrating aspect as @JBHoo hit; we made the defensive adjustment we needed vs VT and then completely ditched it.

Hate that the take away was “VT is good at 3s so lets flat hedge”. Not “We have been killed consistently on hedges and doubles so lets flat hedge and go iso in the post every game”
