NM Green · February 9, 2019

This is rough to watch. First time seeing the Green this season and this team has won 20 games?

The sky isn’t falling and neither are our shots. We are 1-15 with wide open looks. Shoot 33% and this game is tied or better.

Need to work the Simmons mid game to free up the paint and then drive drive drive

We gave up 30 points. Defense is fine, we need offense, Tope does not do that at all.

Agreed. I like tope in spurts but we need O badly!

Or outside or mid range

Yeah, but I get missing those. It was extremely frustrating to be getting to the rim and having them block our shots continually.

RiseUNT · February 10, 2019

I will say for the millionth time. Make open shots.

Yes we are small but we defend and rebound above our size.

Gibson and Smart both being 0-6 each from 3 is terrible

Very true. Woolridge and Gibson really get in their with their hands and quick in the lanes to pick it off.

Gibson hits a big 3. We need this to continue!

WKU 37 -------- NT 25

14:26 to go

If we can get it under ten by the next media timeout, I think we may be able to come back and steal this.

If Grant doesn’t come out with a new lineup miss this hame goodbye. It’s like watching varsity play 7th grade. You can have all the skill in the world on the court but if your going to get bullied it won’t do a lick of good. Grant did this last year in the CBI and we found success. Shake it up again coach! Don’t lay an egg in front of a solid crowd.

Where were you when we walloped Marshall going small? You seem awefully quiet when going small is clicking

I love reading about in-game adjustments, but you also run the risk of trying to be something you’re just not. We are not a big team. I worry if we play your suggestions, we are biting WKU’s bait and going to simply get run out of our own gym trying to be better than them at their game.

is it very bad? Yes. It can also get much worse. I am at work right now and haven’t seen the game. My opinion, based on watching the stats: we can’t hit the broad side of a barn rn.

we have a ton of time left. The boys can still play their small game, start hitting shots and -lookie there - a run to bring us within 10

Here is the run I was hoping for. Gotta settle in and keep it going....can't let the Toppers get the lead back. Now we can just pick at the deficit.

Our shots are falling now, but I believe that when shots aren’t falling you have to find a way to the ball in a position where you can get them to fall.

-I have noticed we are doing less inside out than we did earlier in the year. We use to force feed Simmons in the paint but teamsnstarted adjusting. I would say do that again, but Bassey makes me nervous. If he is out we should be getting Zach a touch as much as we can eaelynin the clock. (Unless we are flat out running)
