We were a good team at one point, but turns out maybe you were right, we need a slasher.

You can only play Suburban HORSE for so long and get away with it.

Why is the color of a players skin important?

Probably because white guys can't jump.

You hit the nail on the head here shoxrox, the Jays have become WAY too reliant on their 3 point shooting - and when they cooled off (its the law of averages, you can't stay "hot" all season long in college basketball) it has brought the entire team down. When the shots are falling, the Jays play faster and more inspired, but when they are throwing up brick after brick (especially in Ethan Wragge and Jahenns Manigat's case) - their level of play greatly diminishes not only offensively, but defensively as well. Manigat early in the year was playing very good defense, but now he's getting worked on the defensive end, and with Wragge - we won't even go there - the guy basically should be the last guy on the bench when he's not making his 3's, he's basically a sharp shooter only - very one dimensional player.

The Jays have completely went away from what worked early in the year during that 17-1 stretch, which was pounding the ball inside to free up open long range jumpers... over the last 11 games the Jays have completely gone away from doing that, and their 5-6 record in those games is the end result.

Probably because white guys can't jump.

And they cannot run, quick, explode and acrobat.

Best post of the thread, by far, goes to Aargh.
