One way to not get upset is to not watch or listen- like I did tonight. I’ve done that more the past two seasons than in my entire life of Cyclone fandom. I keep hearing the same from others and those who don’t go to the games anymore because it’s not fun, or entertaining to watch this kind of ball.
This is one of my bigger issues with Prohm. I can understand rebuilding. I get that losing streaks are a normal thing, especially for teams with less average talent on the roster.
But good god, it is just painful to watch us on both ends of the court and it has been that way for a while. We have a NBA lottery pick running point! And we are still boring as sin.
It's egregious. Especially because it (and Prohm's asinine time outs when we make a good play) kills any momentum we get at home, which could be the difference between getting blown out by a better team and pulling off an upset.
Can you imagine if we had any sort of a motion offense and actually consistently pressed the ball consistently after defensive stops and when taking the ball out of bounds? Haliburton would be an absolute monster, even more than he already is. And it would be fun to watch, even if we didn't win a ton more than we have so far.
