       Kinda sad that SBU is down 5 this late in the game. Forcing
       three's although they've cut back, can't even convert 50% of
       their free throws. Mo is having a rough game. Why is Geno the
       coach? What does he bring to this team.

       Being down to the disgrace of a program that is Binghamton at
       any point is an embarassment.

       I don't like all these mid-range jumpers. We did so well
       yesterday getting it into the middle and find a cutter or go to
       the rack but today just too many 15-footers and not enough
       cutting. I'd love to see our shot chart.

       Such a lucky win. Policelli and Habwe with outstanding games.
       JRod with some clutch shots but also some huge misses. Mo with
       his worst game by far as a Seawolf. Our perimeter D was horrific
       (hats off to some good Bing shooting too). Way to many long
       range jumpers from us today.

       Ugly win. Nice to see Policelli with the perfect 8-8 at the
       charity stripe.

       Policelli needs to be more aggresive  mo and Jrod continue to
       make questionable decisions constantly.

       Greene, who quietly gets it done on both ends, is our most
       important and best player to date, imo.

       A real positive weekend for us. I’m not saying we’re world
       beaters but I think we showed a little bit more of an identity
       than the non-con schedule when it just felt like something was
       off. I like the six we finished the game with – a mix of
       shooters, bigs and energy. It’s interesting with a week off how
       coaches can leave their starters in longer – big minutes from a
       bunch of guys.
       I’m still not totally sold though. We got a weakened Binghamton
       team with Bruce out. Lowell’s a nice follow-up to these two
       games though – two more that you can argue we should win. We get
       them after a midweek back to back with Vermont too.
       Interesting DNP-CD for Diallo. It seems like LES has leapfrogged
       him and I’m good with that. It’s pretty amazing to think that
       nobody in our starting lineup played a minute for us last year.
       Three sweeps this weekend in the AE.
       Foreman hit the game-winner for Cal last weekend and followed it
       up with a game high 23 last night in another W. Love him or hate
       him, or any of the others who left, it’s fun to see them test
       themselves at a higher level.

       My two cents:
       This team isn't bad when they actually play within themselves.
       The problem is that they go haywire every so often and it's
       disastrous. When they all try to do too much, or are put into
       positions that they can't handle, everything falls apart. We saw
       that in the second game against Bingo, a truly awful team that
       is barely at the D1 level. When we played outside ourselves, we
       fell apart.
       For example, JFR is electric when he takes advantage of the
       opportunities that the defense gives him. But when he tries to
       force those opportunities? Yeesh.
       Gueye is really coordinated and devastating when he's in the
       post. When he strays away and faces the hoop, we see his lack of
       touch and he becomes a turnover machine. The team ran so much
       better with Habwe in the high post against the zone.
       I'm just singling them out because those are the two most
       obvious, but you can go up and down the roster.
       Positives? There are many. I mean, we're not an elite team in
       this league but we're also not that far away either.
       - I'm excited to watch Policelli and Greene grow and mesh
       together the next two seasons. They have different games, but at
       this level, they're gonna be really really good. Policelli knows
       his limitations and plays to his strengths. His shot is just so
       pretty to watch. When he gets hot? Damn. And Greene does
       everything  so well.
       - Habwe and Sayles know exactly who they are as players and, at
       this level, they're really good at it. I enjoy watching them
       work the game. They're hard to handle.
       - JFR is electric and is a gamer. And when he corrales it all
       in, buckle up.
       - Gueye is a game changer. He's such a problem defensively. I
       just wish we simplified the game for him, and get him to work in
       the post or in the dunker's position. Or as a rim runner. Let
       his athleticism and size work for him.
       - I feel like one of "The Hyphenates" is gonna step up soon.
       LES, TPP and TSM have depth to their games. They're just stuck
       in a numbers crunch. But if and when one pops, they'll
       complement and even uplevel our rotation and make it easier for
       them to take breaks. Depth is key with this type of schedule. We
       need them.
       Thanks for reading. And happy holidays, Seawolves!
