Baker didn’t shoot it well. Otherwise, he played ok. He’s better than Smith, I know that.
Baker didn't shoot it well.
Smith didn't shoot it well AND turned the ball over

To me, the big issue is hurrying on offense. It's the problem the team keeps defaulting to under the pressure of different stresses. Tonight's stress was the defensive press.

You guys saying we took bad shots, missed opportunities, etc. are going to be flabbergasted when we get blown out in round one again.

I’m old. My flabber isn’t capable of gasting anymore. Not since 2005.

Maybe I'll be gobsmacked. Or maybe my gobs aren't capable of being macked.

As a player, until you’ve experienced the poor shot selection and lapses in execution, it’s hard to comprehend. Going through these lapses is a learning experience for players who in the past have relied on their athleticism and skill to carry them. The more our weaknesses are exposed now, the better. Not happy with the loss or our performance, but this team is learning a lot.

I'm glad someone is confident we are going to be playing a first round game.

I didn't say NCAA tournament. We'd for sure get rolled by Duquesne or any 10-16 seed the way we're playing right now.
