Kohl only played 5 minutes. Didn’t see him in the 2nd half. Is he hurt or in the doghouse or just too young?
I think doghouse
-
@Kcmatt7 dang. Let me ponder that. I think its a little premature to say Elmarko has got what Melvin hasnt we could just ride the hot hand. Def seems like edge Elmarko this game and its good to think about this with DP imminent

We Aren’t a bad team, but we aren’t good without DP.
Hate to say it but Elmarko needs more minutes over Council.
I do think he could be more efficient not playing on the ball most of the time. We need 22 back in the worst way.
-
I don’t think this loss is too hateful, defense was good most the night but the issue with switching is a big is getting a rebound over a guard to often. It comes down to making shots, won’t win many games shooting 25% for a half. When council and flory don’t finish, we really have no weapon to use. The missed freethrows late were big as well as not having any threat from deep.
-
Looks like another long year.
-
@Gorilla72 haha come on man. We have so much more potential than last year
-
@approxinfinity - “potential” is the operative term.
-
This issue late was not having a go to scorer, Mason, Graham, Ochai, Wilson one of those guys takes control in years past and wins us the game. Everyone shot shitty in the second half and was scared to make a play.
-
Hopefully Darryn can finally play soon. Sucks that hamstring injuries are so sensitive because we're giving him millions of dollars to go out and close games like this

Nah we’re the Justice League without Superman right now. Get him back and we roll.

@rcjhdraft if we cut down the nets i am going to point at this DP-less stretch as the catalyst. Its all good. This is just one marquee game and the big prizes are ahead of us.
-
Any of the stat folks remember the last time we let up less than 65 at home and lost? Thats prob the biggest disappointment to me is 2019 will remain the last undefeated season in Allen. Feeling like the building has lost it identity here the last few seasons. Seems like we lose 2 or 3 games just like most other power 4 decent teams
-
Now that we are DP-less, this is about what we should expect for the rest of the season. This is a good team, but not quite talented enough to be a great team.

Yeah I've been pleasantly surprised by elmarko and Jamari but they are still being stretched far beyond what should be expected

I would wager a significant amount he’s back soon, barring a setback.
-
Still not sold on those 2 playing that much
-
@rcjhdraft Yeah, my head exploded on that last play, but Jamari has given us pretty good minutes this year. I would still assume that Jamari has the most minutes to lose of the rotation guys with DP's return, given what we've seen from Elmarko.
-
Need to lock the guards in the gym over Christmas break and do nothing but layups and 3s.
-
My 14 year old had a minor hamstring tear and is an elite soccer player for his age, and it took about 6-8 weeks to fully heal.
You just can't explode with a hamstring injury.
I would encourage every to temper their expectations of what DP can bring not only in terms of a minute restriction but his explosivity when he returns.
-
Jamari is playing such good defense. He has been a very pleasant surprise.
