I don't know if this is just an NDSU issue. Maybe I am out of touch with how the pick & roll game is instructed, but I rarely see a proper roll at the HS and college level anymore. I want to see the screener (especially if a big guy) roll open to the ball, make themselves big and move towards the rim/lane. All too often you see the screener spin the wrong way and set up behind the 3 point line, even if they are not a 3 point shooter.

I was at the game last night (mistake) and I cannot count how many times we missed Deng on a roll to the basket. It was insanely stupid. He would set picks at the top of the key and roll to the basket for a lob or lightly contested layup. Everyone of our guards missed it. Maybe they couldn't throw it over Daum, but Christ it looked open to me.

Could've been towards the latter stages of the 2nd half. I turned it off with about 10 minutes to go out of disgust.

Fair enough. :-).

Our guards don't understand the concept of throwing a ball to big guy in the lane. Does not compute. With that said, very correctable with coaching......only one more year of misery.

Not sure I understand the last part? Are we gonna improve after next year

To me it is clear the staff does not instill confidence and aggressiveness in their players. Most look hesitant and unsure of themselves. Anyone else get this impression?

Not with Richman as coach.

Drove to Brookings for the first time to watch NDSU basketball game. SHAC is much nicer than Frost Arena, I am pretty sure I was the only NDSU fan at the game other than the few family members that sat directly behind the bench. Are they going to update Frost sometime parts of it look very much like the old BSA with wood bleachers.

Frost looks like it has plenty of leg room tho (only half joking)

That's why we should run the weave. It's been our system forever and now the players are learning a new offense. It would be like Klieman going to the spread offense. The players would be starting back from square one.

I think they should mix in the weave. It's ugly basketball but let's face it we were way better running it. It also slows the pace
