Tstan may be as dumb as Pastner. You wouldn’t think it’s possible since tstan is a tech man , but Pastner did graduate from az in 3 years.

Next time? It’s empty in there already.

I certainly hope it’s sooner rather than later. I had just seen or heard 12/31 a couple of times including from Pastner interview. Maybe (hopefully) that is worst case scenario, and we might actually see him sooner.

12/31 at Florida State

10-4

Nope. My solutions would change behaviors, thereby addressing the problem. That's part of coaching. Changing players' behavior. The first and most effective tool in the coaching tool box is playing time. You can lose every game playing your 5 best players 40 minutes per game and letting...

For me, it's not panic, it's annoyance. Then I guess you are not in the camp that thinks missing Jose is a major problem for us offensively, if you think that plugging in any 'ol 2nd tier small forward at point guard is our best alternative? Aren't you always asking for more playing time for...

I agree with what you are saying in the 1st 2 paragraphs quoted above. But, this is where coaching is letting us down. Faced with the situation we find ourselves in, it is Pastner's job to get the players to do what the players need to/should do to give us the best chance of winning. Having...

We miss Jose, and we should be better with him on the court, but as Peacone points out, us being woefully inefficient offensively is not a new trend, and I personally do not accept that it is due to Jose's absence. Devoe came up as a point guard. He has said as much on tape in interviews. He...

This is a good take. I am not quite as optimistic as you, but I agree that Pastner is definitely a good defensive coach and that our overall roster and talent level is improved compared to Gregory. I agree that the jury is still out regarding Pastner's ability to get something going on...

Wow! That last question was a doozie. Thank goodness Pastner didn't take the bait. Said he just wants to beat Ball State on Wednesday. Not the best answer, but could have been a lot worse.

I totally agree.

You think so? I'm not sure. Admittedly, I'm not always seeing the whole floor when I'm watching. But, every time Moses get's stuck with the ball at the top of the key trying to initiate something, I start screaming for a guard to come get the ball and looking to see where everyone else is on...

Pastner addressed this in a pregame interview with Andy Demetra, sort of. He said that the offensive game plan today was to try to get Parhum and Devoe more open shots by letting Khalid Moore handle most of the point guard duties in hopes of freeing up Parhum and Devoe off the ball. Having...

Our defense is pretty good as expected at this point. Our offense is pretty bad, and I'm not sure Pastner has a clue how to help. Our offensive strategy today, and most days, seemed fairly non-existent. We seem to be trying to use a spacing offense with 4 or sometimes 5 guys on the perimeter...

You gotta love Alvarado! My 6 year old's favorite player.

Moses or James? My question was about James Banks.

What about Banks? Until recently he seemed widely considered by the fan base as being our #1 or #2 most critical pieces (i.e. best players) along with Jose. You seem to be putting him outside our top 3, since Devoe obviously has to be in the top 3 as the team and ACC leading scorer. I have...

I have no idea. I think it means peacone is drunk on brown liquor.

Agree. Shembari looked as good as anyone else today, and better than he has in all but a handful of minutes since he's been here. I was glad to see anyone come in for a change of pace today. I'm not always a fan of Pastner's short bench, especially when the starters are playing as poorly as...
