We can't stop people from going to the basket for layups. The other teams seem to have big men who can back up our guys and make shots inside. We don't have players with the size or strength to keep players, even those who are a little shorter, from moving to the basket for an easy shot. Gus tries but get's into quick foul trouble. Will isn't strong enough, James White isn't playing now, but when he's there, his long arms and jumping ability help him to block the shots, although Will does occasionally block shots, Hill is young and not very tall for an inside player, and Poulter hasn't been in shape enough to really see what he can do. So there you are. We can't defend the three point shots. We can't defend the basket. We're up the proverbial creek without a paddle. Steve attempts to fix one leak and then the boat springs another. It's an exercise in futility.

Have you ever though maybe we need a new boat repairman? Or maybe a new boat that doesn't have leaks?

Well, maybe they should buy a can of that spray stuff they advertise on TV, you know the one where they have a screen bottom on the boat, and after they spray some of that magic stuff on it, it doesn't leak a drop. That would be cheaper than hiring a new coach.

That stuff is amazing isn't it! Shame the Titanic didn't have a can of that aboard.
