not enough scoring means losses.

with josh smith out now,this hoya team is in trouble big time trouble and this is why.first of all I am not given up on Hoyas and hope they prove me wrong,but if you are true to just plain common sense you know it is going to be really tough to win now.here is why with smith teams could not just worry about dsr,and starks.he opened up shooters by going inside out. now with no threat of any inside game at all teams will play outside on shooters forcing the guards to beat them. we will get killed on boards with lack of depth and become a jump shooting only team.if we force it into moses and hop and nate it will be turnovers.they are not skilled enough to be effective inside. they may get 4-5 pts. that will not cut it now. here is why say dsr gets 18pts and starks16 pts,after that who is going to score ,we are in trouble.we will be scoring in the 50,s how do you win scoring that little??? if we have a chance everyone has to increase play big time.i mean like this nate 10-12 pts every game,moses 7-8 pts every game,hopkins 10 pts a game. trawick 11 pts a game and bowen 7 pts a game. it will take this to win. we can not beat anyone with 2 guards doing all the scoring. if nate and moses keeps scoring there3-4 pts a game we are hurting. but I do not think they are the type of players that can score consistently .they are more rebounding only players.hop thinks he is a scorer but is foul prone and is to much to force shots and get charges on him inside trying to drive to hole. he needs to just get inside and rebound and score inside 5-6 feet only. it looks bad I think the Hoyas may be on way back to the nit this year and next year,the freshman comoing next year is not going to come in and be readt to dominate in college. so it is blick for this year and next year. unless smith gets it together I think he is thru at g-town though. I hope we can still win but we are not scoring enough. no depth basic just 2 scorers.trawick needs to really step up scoring for Hoyas to win. prove me wrong Hoyas please......

I refuse to believe it is that blick.

For fun, I translated:

With Josh Smith out now, this Hoya team is in trouble - big time trouble - and this is why (first of all I am not given up on Hoyas and hope they prove me wrong, but if you are true to just plain common sense you know it is going to be really tough to win now).

Here is why: with Smith, teams could not just worry about DSR and Starks. He opened up shooters by going inside out.

Now with no threat of any inside game at all, teams will play outside on shooters forcing the guards to beat them. We will get killed on boards with lack of depth and become a jump-shooting-only team.

If we force it into Moses and Hop and Nate it will be turnovers. They are not skilled enough to be effective inside. They may get 4-5 pts. That will not cut it now.

Here is why: say DSR gets 18pts and Starks 16 pts. After that who is going to score? We are in trouble; we will be scoring in the 50's. How do you win scoring that little???

If we have a chance, everyone has to increase play big time. I mean like this: Nate 10-12 pts every game, Moses 7-8 pts every game, Hopkins 10 pts a game, Trawick 11 pts a game and Bowen 7 pts a game. It will take this to win.

We can not beat anyone with 2 guards doing all the scoring.

If Nate and Moses keeps scoring their 3-4 pts a game we are hurting. But I do not think they are the type of players that can score consistently. They are more rebounding-only players. Hop thinks he is a scorer but is foul prone and is too much to force shots and get charges on him inside trying to drive to hole. He needs to just get inside and rebound and score inside 5-6 feet only.

It looks bad - I think the Hoyas may be on way back to the NIT this year and next year. The freshmen coming next year are not going to come in and be ready to dominate in college.

So it is bleak for this year and next year. Unless Smith gets it together I think he is through at Georgetown.

I hope we can still win but we are not scoring enough. No depth, basically just 2 scorers. Trawick needs to really step up scoring for Hoyas to win.

Prove me wrong Hoyas, please......

Especially when you give the opponent too much scoring.
