Re: 2/25 | La Salle | 12:00PM (USA)
Lasalle sucks. If we can play some D and get hot, we can beat a bad team like this. But my guess is we have a fake comeback and loss. We are very predictable. Or we lose by 20.

Re: 2/25 | La Salle | 12:00PM (USA)
If anyone was wondering why Foumena doesn’t play more…… Confidence is absolutely HUGE for young players. When Fou was getting close to 15 minutes a game, or sometimes more, he had a much better groove and motor. He's a step slow today because Archie stopped playing him. I agree he's a massive liabi...

Re: 2/25 | La Salle | 12:00PM (USA)
I need to state the obvious: Always Wright not only cannot defend anyone he cannot run an offense. It seems each possession he runs the shot clock gets to 5 seconds and a difficult shot needs to be tried. Since this game is a joke and Archie has lost this team, I did some research to avoid the tort...

Re: 2/25 | La Salle | 12:00PM (USA)
Fou needs to take that open 15 footer from the line instead of passing. He’s probably afraid he’ll be pulled the second he takes a shot. Archie has ruined any confidence in this kid. He looks like a totally different timid player out there. That’s what happens when you don’t play him at all and tak...
