This is a brand new team. If we gel, I can see us going .500 in
conference play. As earlier posters stated, we have yet to put
and entire 40 minutes together. We have shown signs of
brilliance (today for 20 mins), against St. Johns for 16 mins,
and against Hofstra for 10 minutes. Unfortunately, with a team
this raw, every TO or missed layup or missed FT is magnified
that much more. IMO, Geno has to encourage more ball movement
and trying to limit shooting to a 15' radius of basket; we
really have no pure shooters on this team . We also need more
cutting to the basket, off ball movement. And we need more
pressing on D; I think we have enough athletes on this team to
pull that off. And free throw shooting must get better (11-19
doesn't cut it). Overall, a pretty entertaining game, even
though we ended with a thud.

The America east will be a series of ups and downs maybe they
can get hot late in the season. Thats the most we can hope for.

Yes, effectively 3-way rotation between Mo, Sayles, and Habwe.
Mo showed flashes of brilliance on the offensive end today, and
always does on the defensive end, but his type of unabashed play
leads to fouls. Sayles to a lesser extent, but he's foul prone
too. Habwe seems like a down and dirty kid, who I think
deserves more minutes. This may sacrifice some minutes for
Policelli, but he has less than dazzled me so far - I need to
see him do more off the ball, to free himself up to shoot in
rhythm, which is supposed to be his forte.

just what i was going to write.
actually id start gueye, sales, habwe, greene, and JFR.
policelli off the bench until he either moves off ball, or takes
a shot from the arc (not 4 feet behind it 5 seconds into the
possession, and then stands still watching the carom).
habwe is a shot in the arm, a real swing player that does a lot,
and is very athletic.
JFR grabbed i think 8 boards today. who's gonna get the ball
from us with that starting 5 on the floor?

Policelli needs to move in on 3s those are the ones he actually
makes. This team needs an identity to bring about some flow to
the offense. Habwe sayles and mo i worry would clog the paint
because none are shooting threats if policelli moved to the
bench.
