I noticed on at least 3-4 occasions during game, Pop got overly animated with other team members when something went wrong or he didn't get a pass and the other team members had to calm him down. Hope this isn't indicative of a team chemistry problem....

Brought a bunch of players together and they just had their first dose of adversity. I'm not sure I would read that as a problem on first blush. Now if they turn lip stick into face stick…Zigzig said:

I wasn't too big on it. I didn't like much about Buzz on the court, but he was elite at unity. No. I'm not blaming Bucky for this. It does make you wonder how it will be starting over next season with basically a new team.
Isaacs was extremely frustrated yesterday but it's understandable. He was out of the game for almost a full season, and he wants to play the way he's used to playing, but he's just not capable of it yet. Add in that it was our first road game and that their fans were all over him and I think what you saw was completely normal.
Even though we're going to have a lot of roster turnover I'm not that worried about that aspect of it. We'll at least have some players who have been here before and at least all the coaches will know each others names when they start planning the offseason.
That's fair. I guess it'll def be better with one full offseason.
I don't mind it right now.
He's frustrated because he cares.

I don't think I watch this before, watching now.
I much prefer that kind of frustration at the beginning of the season when you're going through growing pains. I don't think anyone in the national media expects much from our team this year. There are just a lot of unknowns and chemistry is one of them.
Buckys not too concerned with it or he wouldn't have kept playing him.
Pop got frustrated and didn't let the game come to him when the crowd was all over him. He just kept trying to create his own shot instead of ball movement to get an open look like we've seen in the first two games.
Hopefully as this team matures together as a unit, we won't see them abandon what they do well. OS basically bullied us in the half court and overplayed the ball and we had no answer for it. They had guards who were good on ball defenders and we did not in the half court.

I'm glad he was frustrated. I'm glad he was calling out teammates if they were messing up. That's what leadership is about. That's what someone who cares and hates losing looks like.

I believe this is pretty much the scouting report on him. Very hot and very cold hero ball. Will absolutely go off some nights; not so much other nights. 29% from 3 in his last full season.
I saw him specifically get upset at Reuben a few times. Multiple times Reuben has been lost. An unfortunate part of the extreme learning curve he has
How was he tonight?
Still bad.
He's the most disappointing player on the roster. Just appears to be going through the motions. Lots of dumb drives and bad shots. But hey he got paid.

I think he may play better as he gets in shape. He was out rehabbing a long time.
Ive seen it from Rylen Griffin and now Pop.
Team chemistry is going to be an issue. You've got 14 new guys all being paid God knows what to come here. Really as a college basketball fan its sad. The old days are gone
