But shattering for Shaka's reputation

Hyperbole.

If Shaka pivots and brings in 2-3 high-level portal additions this season will be an outlier.

One horrendous year doesn't shatter someone's reputation or devastate a program.

Now, if he allows it to happen again next season that's a different story. But he's competitive and wants to win so my hope is a wake-up call.

In the meantime, some of you might want to get a grip.

Quote from: BCHoopster on January 13, 2026, 08:39:00 PMDo you really think 8 months from now these kids are going to get much better?
James and Steven's do not have a mid range game at all, Owen's has shown nothing in a year and a half.  Phillips I can see potential in a few years.  Then you have the redshirts, I understand Pearson, Militec could not make this crap team, then a foreigner, looks awful skinny.  Next year looks the same, unless Shaka brings in some portal players and gets rid of dead talent.  Hope that happens

Your continued references to the midrange are almost as fascinating as your inability to use the Scoop quote functionality.

The Yankees did well in the Weathers trade.  Miami must be really bearish on his health, because they went the volume route for the return rather than quality. He hasn't been able to stay healthy, but he's looked really good when he's pitched.

Quote from: panda on January 13, 2026, 08:07:48 PMWith every passing game, we see our team look more and more pathetic. However, the lone bright spot is our sweet prince Nigel James. Every game he has a wow play and is single-handedly almost bringing us to cover double digit spreads.

Now the issue is with the modern day game, teams who actually want to win will be offering him things such as money or the chance of winning more than 8 games in a season.

Would it be more beneficial for NJ to take a dive as we hide him from far more attractive suitors than our dumpster fire?

Share your opinions below.

HoF stupid post. Well done.

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on January 13, 2026, 08:49:31 PMThe game was tied 53-53, MSU won 81-60. That's called putting the hammer down.

Yes Michigan State had a 19-0 run

Apparently counting missed layups is new thing. 


Quote from: Warrior of Law on January 13, 2026, 09:50:17 PMAre we still measuring deflections? Maybe it has been replaced with watching opponents make uncontested layups.
