LU 86 – NMSU 75.
That’s eight straight wins for LU. And I already know what the postgame conversation is gonna be. Rebounding. Three-point attempts. No interior presence. Too many threes. You can set your watch to it. Yes, Zac playing the 5 works. It’s been working all season. HCRM adjusts how LU guys are used, and suddenly the same armchair coaches will be say Man, these kids have really improved. LOL. HCRM is coaching his team. HCRM don't let OUTSIDERS in to influence team needs or how they play. Go ahead name the court after him.
Now to the players.
Zac at the 5 spaces the floor and opens driving lanes for our two sub-6’ guards and that other 6’3” listed guard with the hair. They get downhill, good things happen. Funny how that works. JJ the guy who does the dirty work and can get some buckets too. Did any Armchair coaches listen to Wades press conference after the LU beat down? JS man how good is he getting! Per this Armchair coach this dude is the MVP for the rest of the season. Last but surely not lest is Carter the guy who HCRM said in his great presser yesterday he is trusting more and more.
Also notice how the offense takes what the defense gives. Any of the six main guys can score, but sometimes they do this wild thing called passing the ball. It’s not being a ball hog — it’s sharing. You probably learned that back when you were a little armchair coach… unless you skipped that day.
This is exactly the type of roster HCRM wants: guys who can play, think, serve one another, great kids, and trust each other.
And yeah, that’s also why he keeps his rosters together.
But sure — let’s ignore eight straight wins and panic about rebounds and no interior presence on offense.
LU Armchair coach#1 says they will be something very helpful to happen to this team in the next 4 weeks!!!
