general wade and the troops are tops in the 24/7 sec power rankings https://247sports.com/college/lsu/L...-shuffling-at-the-top-178784042/#178784042_12
I think I'm going to have to agree with you about the shooting. At times, everything is flowing and everything is falling and a minute later it's like watching oil and water mix. That's the part of the game that worries me the most. We have long periods of time where we look completely lost and that's going to catch up with you in the long run. I'm hoping we can continue to win, but I wouldn't be surprised if we went the other way simply because we're playing much better competition!
offense has outscored every opponents offense. thats why they are #3 in the NET, the most important rankings. points per game is middle of the pack in the league. 3 pt% awful, free throw % great.
You could say the same if we played ULM 100 times. I do love FT% under Wade. Too bad Miller was injured, if he’s as advertised we might be unstoppable. I guess we’re hoping running and playing free puts us ahead because our D is so impressive. Volume scoring combined with opportunistic scoring and a strong D to stifle the opponent. Watching us jack up so many bricks is rough, maybe I need to recalibrate my expectations.
what are your expectations? to be the winningest team in the league over the last 3 seasons? to be the only team to get a double bye to the tournament those years? to be literally the best defense in the country? to be top 5 in the most important ranking (NET)? to be undefeated with only 4 others in the country? to be projected as a 3 seed? what exactly are your expectations that arent being met? we are talking about the best defense in america that is undefeated. which loss are you upset with? the ones that dont exist? do you want to win every game by 90? and all opposing players are rendered retarded and impotent and crippled and their women cry and burn down their homes out of depression? they are fucking dominating.
could you be a little more specific about your expectation? you expect what, top 3 in the league? well if they play anything like they have during the rest of wade's tenure they will be at or near the top. https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-men/d1/ncaa-mens-basketball-net-rankings in the NET, only two teams in the top 10 are undefeated, LSU and #1 baylor. LSU beat baylor in a sectret preseason scrimmage. there are many ways to win games. with offense, or defense or both. you guys want the team to be both the best offense and best defense in the country? its just not possible without a team of jordans and kawhis. you have to choose. you either get offensive scorers like watford, or defensive effort guys like gaines and wilkinson. there just isnt enough talent and effort out there to recuit both in one player consistetly. if you could, you would be playing with an NBA all star team, not an SEC team.
