Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

UGH!

Easily Altman's worst team since 2010-11. If we lose to Colorado, I think the CBI is the ceiling.

It’s a long season, but the Ducks just don’t have the horses. Too many departures, Smith frustrates me (over-rated to begin with), and E Brown has no conscience. Just not enough dogs.

Against two of the best teams in the conference? I’m not holding my breath. And, White is good, but not close to a player that I would consider a big game changer. Hopefully the strong recruiting class this year, means at least a couple of them will supplant some players that get substantial minutes this year. Attrition will take care of some, but large improvements at some positions.

I'm going to hold this down to a long hold over from Christmas, but DAMN they looked terrible in the second half. Got out hustled, out rebounded, and Pritchard dribbled like he pounding all the air out of the ball rather than making any plays. Judging from the hesitancy of anybody to even drive to the basket, I don't know how much help they could have given him. There isn't star likes Brooks to galvanize the team. This may be a tough year.

Altman post-game:

This team is just simply bad. In this day you need wing players that can create and we don’t have any of those. Prichard lacks court awareness and over dribbles and Brown lacks basketball IQ. Gonna be a long season! Hopefully the recruiting class for next year puts the program back on track.

whaaaaaaaat

wooten needs to be on the floor as much as possible.

You know it's bad when we lose to Utah at home. We never lose to Utah.

Just watched Will Richardson at the LSI, can't wait to see what he brings next season. Really High ball IQ.

That's what I see as well. Every once in a while T Brown has shown some creativity Sadly, the Ducks are just soft; content to stay 25 feet out and toss up 3's. I don't know that Utah, for example, has players "that" can create, but somehow there they were, all of them, creating all over the "Woods" Meanwhile the Ducks come down, Pritchard at the top dribbling while the rest of the players stand around, none of them in the paint.

This team right now can be described in four letters-S O F T.
