[biggunsbob]

Teske the 10 points 11 rebounds off the bench

8 for 23 from three . But I think only two at halftime.

 

[biggunsbob]

Both Simmons and Simpson did not play well on offense . Although Simmons did have 5 assists. .

There's nothing good to take from last night's game other than Teske's performance off the bench. Southern Miss is terrible. They are the worst team on our schedule all season and we laid an egg against them for 75% of the game.

We're going to have to figure out how to play with a PG who can't shoot the three very well. Brooks is the only one who can, but he's not going to get the majority of minutes.

 

[biggunsbob]

The team may be better in transition and have to run more . I think Simmons and Simpson are better drivers then shooters. Simmons did have 5 assist in nineteen minutes. But your right Teske was the only bright spot . Yup Southern Miss is terrible. Both Iowa and osu played pretty subpar until They got it together. Nebraska who did play St Johns looked terrible. Robinson did hit his threes in the second half and ended 4-8.

Robinson needed to hit some threes. He was atrocious in the 1st half coming off a really bad shooting performance against CMU. Finally hit three open shots in a row. Not sure how he missed the wide open layup, but whatever.

I'm hoping Simmons can start using the pick and roll to get some mid-range jumpers to fall. That or use Rahk and Matthews as our primary pick and roll players.

I just feel like it is the exact same script every freaking season. This team always seems to sleep walk early, we write them off, they figure something out and make a run.

your mistake here is switching from first person singular to plural.

YOU feel like...

okay.

WE write them off...?

no, YOU write them off.

 

[thewolverines24]

I'm not writing them off. We all knew, or should have known, that replacing Walton was going to be extremely difficult. The offense is not going to be the same without him. We don't have a lights out shooter at PG anymore and some things will have to be tweaked to get the offense operating efficiently.

Luckily, we have the right coach to do that.

 

[dubbsco]

No, maybe we don't "write them off." But there is plenty, plenty of complaining and it's more than just me about how the team looks. It's a cycle every year.

Looks like Monday's game in Hawai'i has a 11:30 PM EST tip off.
