Kapita needs to stay his ass under the goal.

Ungodly amount of turnovers and forced shots.

If we had just relaxed and made then play our pace this should have been an easy win.

Gottfried needs to bench Smith. Guy swags around the floor like an NBA star but then can't hit 3s or play defense. I'd rather see Markell Johnson out there.

Hope we can gel during conference play, or we're gonna get Seth Greenberg'd on Selection Sunday

why is that a foul on markell? that was just a hard screen that markell ran blindly into...shouldn't that be a no call?

I agree Johnson has been more impressive than Smith. Smith obviously has more potential but definitely has some growing up to do.

Maybe we can give up over 90 again to further prove how bad our defense is. Complete train wreck.

Are you tools forgetting DSJ is still a freshman? Yes, he had an underwhelming performance but outside of Dorn its not like anyone else on the team is consistent.

I don't want him benched because that would mean we would have to rely on Henderson more. Henderson did absolutely nothing tonight.

^^^Were you expecting him to come in and average 30 points a game with 10 assists? He has some growing to do but remember when you were a freshman?

The only couple of bright spots tonight were Kapita looks promising and Dorian shot decent. Other than that this was a painful game to watch.

Lol at the lutz talk. We were shit last year with him on staff. He's always heralded as some secret weapon assistant by some of our fans. He's a fine coach. He's not John Wooden.

Well I finally decided to sit down and watch a game of ours last night... got exactly what I expected. Those of you still clinging to hope we will be good again one day in something... I promise its so much better when you let go and accept that this is who we are.

^^no offense, but why the heck do you even bother posting in Sports Talk anymore? In your mind we'll never be good in any sport of significance, ever. So why come in here at all? Just so you can try to spread your morose ideal of what our teams will always be?

If you don't care if we are good or bad, I'm not sure you qualify as a "fan," more an interested observer.

I never said I didnt want us to be great of course that's what all fans want. The difference is I can accept that it just doesn't seem to be in the cards for us and enjoy our program for what it is. I enjoy watching my school play and want us to win every game I just became apathetic to the constant averageness I guess and just assume we are going to be around a .500 program every year. Now instead of being upset after a loss it has just become easier to accept that it wasnt unexpected shrug it off I suppose.

We play like an AAU team, and that's the problem.

Until we stop playing like an AAU team and start playing like an actual college team, we aren't going to win many games.

Not going back through the thread, and I am sure it has been said already but our defense was absolutely dumpster fire atrocious last night. Gott teams are never good at D, but this team is a special level of bad. It sucks too because we have the most offensive talent I have seen on an ncstate team in a while. I love that we don't rely on outside shooting to score. If mediocre teams are gonna hang 90 on us, we are in for a long long season.

Yeah, we looked pretty garbage-y all-around last night. Still holding-out hope that we'll start coming together and realize our potential after guys get comfortable playing together.

we coughed up the call pretty much every time we went on their side of the court. traveling. passing to nobody. air balls last night was a disaster and Illinois is so bad that they let us stay in it for most of the game. they tried as hard as they could to let us have the game but we still wouldn't take it.

our guys need to calm down, get set up, and take every possession seriously. defensively I don't even know what to say - try harder?
