OU HOOPS: Two transfers in last three days

[cloneteach]

Bottom line, they were 7 games better than they were last year after returning over 60% of their minutes. The difference between their roster last year and this year was Trae Young. I grew tired of the Trae Young narrative as well, but trying to find blame with a coach or player for only improving by 7 wins seems a little misguided.

 

[Kurttr]

>Young probably does have an agent, most NBA lottery picks do.
>They ran a quick efficient offense. It was more fun when they were winning, but that is true of most teams.
>Frustrated or jealous? Improving by 7 wins over one season is a great accomplishment. If my goal as a player was to put up my own stats, yes I would have been frustrated. If my goal as a player was to win games, no I wouldn't have been as frustrated.

Appreciate your response, cloneteach. I can see that perspective from Krueger's standpoint for last season, but I'd guess most players would like a combination of the two goals you noted. Simply carrying Young's bags and winning a few more games probably won't thrill many teammates.

Again, thanks for responding.

You say a lot of stupid stuff

Yeah, Im sure teammates loved playing with him when they were losing 10 games in a row, he was a turnover machine, and thought he needed to throw up stupid shots every possession.

His basketball IQ was well below average also.
