Trying to reason with non basketball people is tiresome

I have been on the boards much less this year due to the ridiculous comments from posters. Players, especially freshmen, go through slumps and comments from fans sitting on their couches don’t help. I am about done with looking at the message boards between criticism of players, coaches and referees.

Leaving Lawal open at the 3-line is also a good strategy.**
