In response to loco09
elaborated more on the maac board.. but wow does Shane Walker pi.ss me off... he was absolutely terrible tonight.. offensively and defensively.. Why he thinks a 6'10" guy should be jacking up 3's is beyond me. Twice he failed to find Olsen open for a 3.. One time he took the 3 himself (with 2 guys on him and 3 seconds left on the shot clock... still time to pass it 2 feet over to Olsen imo) and the other time he just turned the ball over instead.
Olsen was on tonight and it bothers me that Walker wouldn't have realized it and been on the lookout for him and instead selfishly chucked up god awful looking 3's. Why Patsos and co. don't teach the kid some post moves that don't end in a fade away.. or that are actually effective... is beyond me. He's been here long enough, we still shouldn't be talking about him exerting himself enough as a big man.
Not to pile it all on Walker though, didn't think Etherly looked all that good tonight either.. less explosive, a lot more tentatively than he usually is.
All that being said.. we won the game so as long as that keeps happening you really can't have too many complaints. Cormier with a clutch 3 and Olsen had a great game (fell into foul trouble in the 1st half.. probably cost us from this being a more comfortable win) Speaking of that, wow does this team foul a lot.. I think we're in the bonus at the 10 minute mark in every single half, needs to be cleaned up.
