I think Miller needs to rethink parts of his defense.
Which part is bothering you more . . . The 37% fg percentage or the 17% 3pt percentage?

The 100% FG% when they get easy layups when our big doesn't get back.

Nnaji also has a tendency to bring his defender into a help position when our other big man is working the low post.

Nice move by Jeter going at Brodeur a few plays back.

Yeah biggest issue seems to be when doubling guys we completely lose the open man. Gettings has gotten burned a lot tonight but Penn has missed a lot of their 3s

What a difference when Mannion is out there. Have not seen a better freshman leader since Bibby, and not even sure about that. Both exceptional.

It's the Nico Mannion show!

I believe Nico is fine. My word.

Come on

Found our way to make this into a game.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:15 pm

We go on a run and proceed to let them back into the game.

penn had mad 6 threes in a row, but we're maintaining a lead.

we're doing ok

jeez now penn has made 8 of their last 9 threes lol.

Someone should get in Dingle's face

Did you see Smith bait that guy into a foul? Epic.

Feels like I am watching a repeat of last night.

Flashbacks to the Ayton team with the poor 3 defense

Longhorned · Post by **Longhorned** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:23 pm

When certain players start hitting every contested three they shoot, chances are you let them get warmed up by not contesting them initially.

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:24 pm

We are slow learners.

Longhorned · Post by **Longhorned** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:25 pm

At least Penn will only score two on this possession.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:29 pm

We sure like to make things challenging.

I hate analysts that make up their own imaginary narrative.

Not a lot of playing time for Hazard

dmjcat · Post by **dmjcat** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:33 pm

We still don't look like a top 25 team.

Unless the defense improves significantly by next Saturday we are going to get curb stomped in Waco.

Agreed. I don't see Baylor having much trouble with us unless we tighten up on defense.

PieceOfMeat · Post by **PieceOfMeat** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:36 pm

92-82

taking care of business

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:36 pm

How 'bout we get Dingle to transfer.

Not performing well . . . unlike the drama queens queening up the game thread—good work guys.

Longhorned · Post by **Longhorned** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:38 pm

Overall, good game. In spite of the learning experience on defense and the unconscious 3-point shooting.

We would have gotten curb stomped if Penn didn’t have such atrocious FT defense.

WildcatStunner · Post by **WildcatStunner** » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:40 pm

Happy to get the win. Just hope to see some defensive improvement as the season progresses.

Dude went Jimmer. Years past we lose games like this.

This years different.

That will be us against Baylor, and I'll be loving every minute of it because we suck.
