Can he shoot the 3 ball? well... not exactly a chip off the old block as i was never any good, BUT he did hit 57 threes in 18 games and shot 44% from 3.

They absolutely do, but after four years of this the CEO is going to catch a lot of blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo123 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Archie "we have to be smarter on offense" Really! you are saying this at the end of the season? If you are saying this at the end of the season. your season was lost before it ever started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s being paid an amount that is reasonable for the market he is in and the job he has. He’s just failing at it. I mean, do people actually think he’s just doing this for the salary? Maybe not. But, he was clearly signed to a contract that was too long and totaled way too many $$$ for a guy with NO head coaching experience at this level.

IMO there’s a difference between a fan having friendly banter with friends and a player openly attacking an overly simplistic system of a rival. The former is harmless and expected. The latter is within their player/coach community and totally different. These are just my opinions. If I were a coach I would shut down the latter as disrespectful. The former is different in kind and totally fine to me. What happened here is a player essentially said the rival’s system is stupid. Not a fan of that. I would never tolerate that as I wouldn’t tolerate attacking a competitor by name. There’s a principle here I’d want my kids to learn that’s applicable to the real world. This is my last post on this because I’m not inclined to keep going on and on about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t even dispute the statement. I will say that if a vendor came to me and tried to sell me something and said his competitor had a stupid system, I wouldn’t buy from him. If you think I’m alone on this, you guys would be mistaken. The way you say it is “my system has this feature or that feature and is better because we focus on feature X and the competitor doesn’t have that feature. This is how it will help you.” Similarly, if my player said Kentucky’s system was the easiest to crack that I have ever seen and no one is close, I’d teach that out of him. Coach Knight would high five me on this because there is a real world component to this. As 100% confident as you guys are in your view, I’m 100% positive in mine. I guess that’s what makes the world go round. I don’t think you guys get my point so let’s move on. No point in going on and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatGuy Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Someone mentioned earlier they don’t expect to Ivey after next year. Don’t kill me, but he reminds me a lot of Oladipo. Amazing leaper, great finisher, and developing an outside shot. About the same size too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone tried to sell me by downplaying/bad mouthing the competition etc I would not buy from that person and also would want to know what the competitor had to offer (ie what do they have that obviously threatens the person Trying to sell me). In regard to this trail of posts....In my case I just glanced at a post and thought some PU guy was jawing because “little brother”, as we used to call them, has beaten “big brother” 9 times in a row and just thought...how sweet for them, can’t blame them, without even paying attention what was said, in what context etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
