[QUOTE="daddee724, post: 929656, member: 5683"] Where is/are the poster(s) that whenever we lose are typing away about how bad our players are, our lackluster talent, non-ACC talent level players?? I stand firmly on our talent level it is ACC level 100%. Based on the ACC talent-level overall the last 2 years, multiple guys on our roster can start on a few or if not all of them. I asked the question last week about who on VA roster popped out as elite talent & I pretty much got crickets. So I'll ask who on Miami (currently 12th in country until new rankings drop) roster pops out as elite talent? Will take into account they were 5-30 from 3 & say they were off or had a bad night. Still no elite talent IMO. They have seasoned/experienced players just like VA does. Their offensive system in place is working for them & aligned with their pool of talent. CJP made an adjustment last night b/c he had to try something different which we all can agree on & it worked in his favor. Specifically Lance getting wide open looks & making Deebo a primary ball handler which again I felt like he should have done way before last night, but JP had to try something. Lance strong drives complements his ability to make shots which he was able to do both last night. Deebo can handle the ball he was recruited as being a guard so just sticking him in the corner hasn't helped him at this level because he can offer so much more. His shot is still off, but he will start making those shots. Did he still run Princeton stuff most certainly he did, do I still dislike it heck yes, but the difference last night was he had guys on the floor all at the same time that warranted attention from the defense.

The win was great, but I hope this win serves some reassurance for JP that he can try something different this late in the season & the guys can adjust to it & not use them as the reason why you hadn't completely 🗑️ the Princeton offense. Those guys want to play fast.... he should let them play. Yes there will be turnovers, but hell our turnovers are bobbled passes, not catching it, falling down, or bad hand offs. So maybe if we get to playing fast, pitching ball ahead to lane runners & using primary break as some offense, our turnovers may go down.
