THE SEASON SYNOPSIS

Raw talent alone is not enough. However, it sure is fun to watch. We all know what happened: a wildly excessive number of 3-point attempts despite an abysmal 30.8 percent clip from downtown for the team.

Also, the team struggled from the foul line and failed to find a consistent fifth weapon outside of the four electrifying freshmen. No need to rehash the ending here, though, as the wound is still a little fresh.
