Bama Basketball, How does it feel?

[ROLLER]

OK guys as the football season winds down you know it's time for the B-ball team to make it's mark. BTW the b-ball team is not under sanctions of any kind so we can go anywhere and win anything we please. I can't wait to see these guys go all out this season.

Mr. Dudley, you will not have to carry the load so much this season. How does it feel? Mr. Walker you can get a foul or two in the first half and not have to play on eggshells the remainder of the game. How does it feel?
Mr. Williams you still have Dudley, Walker, and Meade to dish it out to with the additions of Winston, Stone, and an alley ooping Brock. Tell me Mo, how does it feel?

Mr. Gottfried you have depth at every postition, expecially with Smith, Thomas, and Pettway available to play two positions. Mark, how does it feel?

Fans, we now have everything we didn't have last season. The only missing piece that scares me is the departure of TR Dunn. Atleast now we have some bigger bodies and the depth to put full court pressure on teams. Guys like Thomas and Williams will allow Demetrius Smith and Reggie Rambo to play their natural postions. How does it feel?

Eli, you shouldv'e held on for one more season because this one should be special. How does it feel?

Oh yeah, with our only instate rivalry under the NCAA shotgun, recruiting will be a bit easier around here. How does it feel?

I sure hope our boys worked on the 3-ball this summer. That was a real weakness last year.

Yeah really. We couldn't shoot a lick last year. When we played Kent St.,they really exploited us. We have the "D" to shut down teams, but we must put points on the board in order to advance this year.

Guys I can understand your concern. I'm not very concerned with the three point shooting as much as I'm concerned with our offense. What I mean is our "inside out game". I noticed the other day that Erwin(who no doubt is our best player) had like three times the TO's as he had assist. This is what I mean. We have a strong inside game with Erwin and Kenny so if we can pass the ball to the perimeter from the post, we should get good looks behind the arc.

The games you guys mentioned, I believe we forced up shots over people. Nobody will shoot well doing those things. Let's pack it down inside with Mo, force people to double team Dudley and kick it out to Meade and company.

Don't worry guys if we run the offense and create turnovers like we did last season we will get open looks and the percentage will rise. But for games against those teams that slow it down and play controlled ball, we got to be patient and take advantage of our strength, which is down low with Dudley and Walker. ROLL TIDE
