Started the game with Maldonado. Go on a 9-2 run. He gets pulled for Aka Gorski and CSU goes on a 20-2 run before maldonado comes back in. Why can no one on that staff see things like that. It’s not coincidence!
In an effort to be as fair as possible to a player who has given his blood sweat and tears to this organization, I have to adjust my comment. I went back through the box score this morning and realized that my above statement was in error and a slave to the moment. Aka Gorski came into the game well into the run that sealed the game in the first half. Alexander, if you read this board, my bad.
All that said, I wanted to see what kind of player efficiency we had in yesterdays game. Frankly, its no wonder we lost yesterday. 5 of the 9 players who played in yesterdays game had NEGATIVE Linear Weight PERs. Thats astounding. 5 of the 9 players who stepped foot on the court yesterday had a NEGATIVE impact on the game. I don't know what to say past that. That hurts.

What these tell he is that JJ has to get his turnovers in check. Theyre killing his efficiency and really hurting the team. Aka Gorski is doing absolutely nothing. You look at this box score and he has a bunch of zeros and couples missed FGs. Free throws and Rebounding killed us yesterday. Had we hit 82% instead of 73% of our free throws we win that game.
There are real issues with this team. I can't quantify or illustrate one issue but there is an "IT" factor that this team currently is missing. I don't know if its our seniors being poor leaders, our youngsters not growing into their roles, our coaches not understanding the true strengths and weaknesses of this team, or some combo of all. I am interested in everyones thoughts on this.
