Nice pass from CB btw
-
Wow agbaji
-
Got to keep it up!!!
-
Self’s teams seem to lack a killer instinct. Not sure why. When we got up 20 should have totally put the foot on the throat and snuffed out any hope.

Iona was lifeless and then we put in subs and stopped playing hard
-
@tis4tim Sometimes I think we forget to compete. Like we’re just going through the motions, doing things that would work in practice, but we forget to actually play.

I realize it’s hard to keep the intensity for 40 minutes and there’s a natural tendency to let up when you get a substantial lead.
I just don’t know Bill’s psyche enough to know if he just doesn’t like embarrassing other coaches or if he likes in-game psy-ops with his own players to build toughness or if we just can’t turn it on again once we turn it off. Any way you look at it costs us a fee games every year and often at the most inopportune time.

That’s what I see too. It’s early and we’re a work in progress and every team is different. Yet, lack of a killer instinct seems to be a universal theme with Self. 2008 might be an exception.

Now finish this game, good effort this half please.
-
@BShark After the first 50 seconds…
-
No surprise
-
No awareness of the court
-
Came out looking pretty flat…sigh… Literally the same thing as Friday, hopefully not for 15 minutes this time…
-
Legs shouldn’t be a factor. Pace needs to quicken
-
Eerily reminiscent of the Dayton game. Big 1st half lead - 18 this time - and quickly down to 10…
-
Jeezuz Dave…
-
Same shit every game from dave
-
Dave is bad, woof
-
Good defense, Braun
-
This feels like a repeat of Friday with KU coming out flat to start the second half.
-
Remy’s shot is so flat but it goes in
-
God it’s like hot potato
-
Why can’t we make lay-ups? lol
-
Does anyone keep track of shooting % at the rim. We are probably 300th in the nation…
-
What is with ochai today
-
Nice pass by Remy there
-

He’s shooting 41.7% from the field this season, which obviously is not great for a big man.
-
Och back down to earth these last couple games…
-
About to be in another dogfight ugh
-

Hope he doesn’t decline as we go forward like last year
-
Och needs to box out too
-
At this point, we should just use Dave to set screens around the FT line and follow-up on drives. Forget about posting him.
-
We should give his minutes to Clemence and KJ. Those players can potentially get a lot better.
-
Mitch is second leading scorer right now…

Mitch has looked alright this season. Like a great value Nick Collison
-
I think Mitch can do all the things we expect from Dave. Rim runner that rebounds, plays positional defense and doesn’t cough up the ball or play plodding back to the basket offense, passes willingly.
-
Terrible officiating is back
-
Agbaji’s shot selection needs to be better or he needs to attack and get to the line. He can’t play soft and take dumb shots.
-
Looks like Agbaji’s mechanics have reverted to old Agbaji again.
-
So yes. I’d like Zach and KJ to get minutes but in this team Mitch might be pretty valuable
-
That was an awful break…
-
Hope KJ stays in
-
Nice d from jaun
-
D Juan harris

Mitch has been around forever and knows what is expected of him and how to function in the offense. Generally doesn’t try to do more than he is capable of…
-
Mitch is currently our best big. Hopefully not the case by the end of the season.
-
Jalen, you’re going to have to make free-throws if you ever want to play in the NBA.
-
Jalen got fouled. Come on
-
CB so much more confident
-
KJ
