Déjà vu all over again. Thought maybe someone else was running the game strategy this year, but this game looked like same old same old.
Jimmy said the last play was for Olsen but Cormier “got it to him a little late then he didn’t shoot itâ€. Post-game announcers questioned a lot of what happened in the game, Jimmy got a little testy then simply said “I’m the coach so it’s my fault they were not ready to playâ€. My guess is they’ll have new announcers for the next online broadcast! ;>)
Williams was in the Patsos doghouse for something, and that was also why Olsen was subbed in and out so much. That’s the Gary Williams school, yank a guy as soon as he makes a mistake, only Jimmy berates the guy who made the mistake whereas Gary always yelled at the others on the bench. Gary was a good coach most of the time, but this was one of the traits I prefer Jimmy not emulate.
Glad Latham had an injury, any time I see guys in street clothes I get Jamaal Barney flashbacks!
Was hearing Jimmy was trying to change his in-game habits this year, guess that was a lot easier when the team played well. No question they shot poorly last night, the stats show that, but shot choices were not always the best, that’s coaching/teaching. Guys are gonna miss shots sometimes, no coaching can fix that, but making good shot choices is all about coaching, especially when the other team throws a zone at you
After coming out in the second half and dominating early, thought they were home free. Then halfway thru they went back to sleepwalking. Hard to follow substitution flow online, but I know when I am there in person it is evident that Jimmy has no X and O reason for who is on the floor at a given point in time, he always seems to manage it by who he’s ticked off at, which is no way to run a team IMHO.
Gonna be interesting to see how Jimmy handles these next two games, I think that’s gonna be key to whether or not we can expect any different results this year
