Looks like we're back to the offense of 4 guys outside the arc, one guy inside. That would be ok if we had shooters. Hard to get offensive rebounds (and there are plenty) when standing 20 feet away from basket.
Watch the game. Battle shoots from anywhere. The problem is he can't score if you lock him in thr gym alone.Does Jamison Battle even want to play? And does Ben want him to get a single shot today?
This squad might be worse than Pitino’s 8 win team.
How can our FT shooting be so bad? Just horrible fundamentals? Second worst team in the country.
This squad is really bad.No, I don't think this team will be that bad.
I wasn't expecting even an NCAA tournament team but I'm very disappointed in this team. I certainly expected a better team than last year but I don't think they'd be at them more than three out of every ten times. They are below average in every aspect of the game. At this point they're not even entertaining. It reminds me of the humphries team or the year when hargrow and Boone joined what had been a plucky NCAA tournament team.
Garcia stood there and watched that missed shot and made zero attempt to grab the rebound.
But it’s to be expected when you’re relying on this many freshmen to play big roles. Not the Fab FiveRegression in year 2 is not what you want to see.
