Missed 20 layups, literally. 16 turnovers, and had the ball in with 3 minutes left in a 4 point game. Memphis doesn’t scare me at all. Would love to see them on a neutral in the conference tourney.

Forget the turnovers. Our shot selection was awful. Tre took about 8 shots that had little chance to go in. Keith maybe 4 or 5.
I remember one play in the first half where Keith passed up a 3 and passed to Tre who took a long baseline 2. Wtf?? Jarron threw it to Tre late for a 3 when he could have pulled up himself. Vogt forced it into double and triple teams instead of kicking it back out in the first half |

That’s pretty much our season. Unless we can rattle off 6-7 straight wins. Not much hope for that

We finished the game scoring .74 ppp lol (and that's including a garbage time 3 from jaevin). But
somehow had a lead in the second, and we're only down 4 with under 4 to go in a game I think we got the short end of the whistle. I'm pretty sure all of that means our defense gave us every chance to win. We held Memphis to 0.91 which is a pretty solid number and forced a bad shooting team to take almost half of their shots from 3. I'm almost starting to believe our defense is finding it's stride, but we'll see. The offense is still eww with all the turnovers and that doesn't look too be changing anytime soon. Pretty sure our turnover rate is what it is at this point. Expecting that to get better seems naive. |

They were guarding the perimeter all night and not worried about getting beat and funneling all the shots to the rim where they are #1. They weren't calling fouls either making matters worse. I don't like the long and mid range two but I don't mind pulling up just short of the rim protector and hitting a close range bank or floater. Or when the shot blockers come in for the kill dish the ball off to the open guy. MAW had a brilliant assist in the lane and had the sense not to try to get a shot off in the trees. We needed more plays like that.
Instead we had full speed plays to the rim and either clanked it off the rim (because it's VERY difficult to make a full speed layup) or we got stuffed. Then we telegraphed about 4 entry passes...we were late on most of those. Oh well...it wasn't a good matchup for this team. I hope we can beat them at home with a different strategy. |

Our free throw rate was 42.2 OOC good for 9th in the country.
Our free throw rate in conference is 23.8. 12 out of 12. We've all witnessed many hammerings in conference that just weren't called. The refs must get better. |
