That emoji is going to get a lot of use this year!

Definitely some good stretches to get you excited for this team’s potential. Need to clean up the rest. Looking forward to seeing the improvement in game 2 now that we’ve got more tape against an ok opponent.

Where was Yo-Yo?

He was on the bench

I sort of think we need to find a more productive stagger. That “Kobe and bench” group was rough.

Geez I spent the whole summer not buying into the Jett hype because freshmen shooters and Caleb Houstan, and I resolved to know better next time and all that. But :flight_departure: :airplane: :ringer_planet:

Think you’re probably right but I don’t hate letting them figure it out while it’s still early? Good reminder that the big difference in lineups up and down CBB is shotmaking. Hunter’s elite. Jett maybe too? Jaelin is steady. Remains to be seen with everybody else.

Jett seems very long/lanky. Could we play smaller and have him at the 4 to get Barnes a few minutes? Seems like Barnes played too good on the Euro trip and the exhibition to get a donut

First half grouping was just as bad. Juwan really needs to not just “give away” 3-4 minutes each half to unplayable units. Split it up.

Yeah I mean it’s one game, but it wasn’t so great in the exhibition either

Don’t mind seeing if they can “figure it out”

Seems like just running JL instead of Kobe and telling him to hunt his own offense a little more or just leaving Jett on the floor instead of Kobe and telling him “do Jett things” would solve it.

But I agree, while painful to watch I don’t hate watching it play out

You’re right, Kobe’s better :sunglasses:

I’m impressed with this team, so many scoring options.

Is it too much to say this is the best Freshman debut of all time? Who was better?
