What did work would be a much shorter list

From a long time fan dripping after last night's Portland game:

"The debut of the 2016/17 Spartans was, in a word, horrible. The team underperformed in all aspects of team basketball, it was a group of guys all standing back and watching the “Brandon Clarke show”.  In addition to a pathetic athletic performance on the floor, the Event Center arena proved even worse. The building was hot with fans all improvising with methods of wiping the sweat off their brows, the shot clocks intermittently did not work, and those in attendance were treated to horrible music drummed into their heads at decibels fit for a concert. This athletic administration again proved that their planning and management of simple game-day details are beyond their capabilities. The entire evening was truly an embarrassment in all respects!"

Beyond the awful physical experience, this makes it sound like Thursday's matchup with Denver, as silly as it sounds so early this season, is a must win in order to not lose even some of the mainstay fans. The Pioneers fell at home 92-84 to Jacksonville on Saturday as the Dolphins went to the foul line 41 times and grabbed 11 steals in the game. For MWC comparison's sake, Jacksonville fell on Monday to Air Force 86-68.
