Zions been out for four months, he's 20 years old and he plays 15 minutes

Or Melli at least

I just personally dont care about that last possession anymore.

I posted the 4th quarter shot chart for both teams. It's ugly.

That game was lost long before that last possession. Snyder just outclassed Gentry when it counted most.

They are treating this kid like he is made of glass. He should have played significant minutes in the 4th quarter period. The season is on the line.

Well I don't think anyone is denying that.

Even if you like Gentry more than most of the people on this board, I don't think there is anyone would who put him in the top 5 or 6 coaches in the league, whereas Snyder probably does fall into that category.

I'll also say this again--

when a player gives an interview, and they say "we only practiced defense today we're not worried about offense", that is a RED FLAG.

Basketball is definitely a sport where offense and defense are symbiotic. One won't work without the other.

Any coach that preaches that, especially in today's game, is suspect.
