Uh oh. I'm sure Tres and Ethan did something wrong that can be criticized, however.

And that the team just works a lot better without him? Or is it just me? I am not sure that I agree with the thought, but I will just put it out there for comment. |

I would have said Stevie T before Big G. Many games Stevie was ineffective but given lots of minutes. And his D was small d many nights |

I am not sure that I agree with the thought, but I will just put it out there for comment. I would have said Stevie T before Big G. Many games Stevie was ineffective but given lots of minutes. And his D was small d many nights That is what I was thinking as well. But I think the coaches have something to do with that - for all his lackadaisical D (or, as you accurately identified, 'd') and bouts with "volume" shooting, he sure was out there a lot. Now some on this board argue he had more talent than what we had on the bench last year...... I see some of the same volume shooting going on with ET right now as well - hopefully he can start slashing to the basket with more positive results (or consider dunking for a bit better chance of converting). Right now if you check the stats, the player with the lowest FG% or 3FG% of ANY player is ET, and he is within 1 minute of playing the most minutes (by a large margin) on the team. And one could argue there might be some other guard possibilities on the bench this year.......like I say, I hope he is just in a shooting slump. Go Beavers! |

Good road win for the Beavers. After the loss to OK, I posted I hoped WT would use these next 7 games to get the newcomers some experience and so far so good. Would have liked to see TT and ET play about 5 minutes less each and gotten Franklin some minutes. But I was happy to see Tucker get some minutes as well as SMM and Hunt. And overall it looks like they did well. Some nice shooting stats for Lucas and Hunt, and all seemed to contribute. And speaking of contributing, Reichle had another good game. Only player on team to have a point, rebound, assist, steal and block. Not sure I’d call him a stat stuffer — maybe a stat sprinkler.
As to Ethan, he’s always been primarily a volume scorer and not a great shooter. I think he is pressing some with basically being the second option instead of third. What I find concerning is I haven’t seen any improvement in any facet of the game this year except maybe D, but haven’t seen enough to know if the increased steals really equate to better D. I do think he would benefit from a little more time on the bench when his play warrants. It is looking like the Beavers have enough talent on the bench to pull him for a minute or two when he makes some bad plays to give him some coaching or just time to regroup. And also has added benefit of getting a bench player like Hunt an extra meaningful minute or two per game. Next year Ethan’s going to have a huge role (as well as this year), so instilling more accountability in him this year could pay huge dividends for next year’s team.

Reading this board, I'd expect tomorrows newpaper to have this headline:
"Beavs Finish Contest Next-to-Last. Coaches Responsible for Debacle."

I have heard that Big G was a locker room malcontent, who ran his mouth a lot, complaining about everything to pretty much everyone who would listen. Mostly about getting beat out by Kelly, but also about favoritism shown to the coaches' sons and such. Though, that is just what I have heard. |
