It's a mentality thing. Not a play call thing. Cole isn't afraid. He stinks, but he isn't afraid.

Jett plays afraid.
Coach put that fear in him.... When you're in a situation where you can play free there's no fear.... This is not that, any mistake he's getting yanked....

It sucks, but it is what it is. Rampaging about the performance without those three guys is odd.


Correct. We have a combined 86.8 ppg sitting on the bench with injuries. It’s time to adjust expectations if you are expecting competitive ball and face the reality of the situation.


Butler is injured too and Miami's game against Oklahoma finished 20 hours before the start of this one. Even with injuries is reasonable to expect a competitve game.

I’m telling you, if this team could shoot we would be sooo dangerous. But then we let other teams go on runs after we do everyone on defense.

Mosley deserves so much credit for how far this team has come. We're likely not winning this game but this is pretty impressive all things considered.

Makes sense.

Mosley routinely proves to me that he knows how to get the best out of his guys compared to my preferences.

It seriously is a pattern. Orlando has a quarter-whether it is the 3rd or 4th where they hold teams for about 8 minutes of low shooting, and then for whatever reason, we let it go and the opposing team just goes on this crazy runs and it is due to our inability to score. It is so disheartening.
