Long Beach State Athletics!: Re: I want to have hope for this MBB season...but Basketball 101

Hard to build culture in this environment. Let’s hope they can build momentum with two wins this week at Fresno and Pacific.

Last year I was excited after the coaching change and bought season tickets for the first time in a long time. The product on the floor was so bad that I only went to three games because the style of ball and results were so bad. Did not renew this year and will wait and see if things turn around. Not sure if the current state of college athletics will allow this to happen.

I suspected a problem when NONE of the recruits had any kind of decent assist numbers. And now, as you say, we see how this is going to work out. The issue is compounded by not having any elite shooters. This is sad. Again.

ok, Acker has probably forgot more basketball than I'll ever know

just 50 years of playing HW and rec and watching tons of basketball, I was HORRIFIED at some things

again, it was SDSU, heck that might be a final 8 team for all we know

but HOW IN THE F'ING WORLD DO YOU HAVE AN OFFENSE WHERE 20-25% of the TIME THE DUDE WITH THE BALL ISN'T EVEN FACING THE BASKET

I'm like a broken record, these hand offs beyond the perimeter. IT IS SO EASY TO SCOUT, OUR GUYS GOT BLIND-SIDED by the weak side seeing some dude standing there oblivious to his back side. and close proximitry passes TELEGRAPHED for god sake, like half the TOs are due to putting the guy with the ball in an idiotic position

we are doomed this year, I hope I'm wrong, we shot like 4 airballs from the 3.

played so ahrd defense for 10-15 minutes and then the dam just breaks cause the offense is so PUTRID
