We another shooter or two. We have one.

He initiated the offense well , but that missed wide open 3, two missed free throws and throwing up that shot in OT in traffic with 3 NU players lost us the game.

Alstork played some great defense late in that game.
This!
we need to figure out how to play against the zone
yeah....short bench for Cats and we could have run them out of the gym. chose not to for some reason.I dig the quicker pace. But if we don't get a shot up in 7 seconds, the final 8-30 seconds of our offense is pretty ugly.
NO excuse whatsoever for Smith not to play more. Continuing with offense for defense substitution of AJ was absurd during OT. If he fouls out at that point he fouls out but you have to have the nations leading 3 point shooter on the floor.
Dude... If you really want to point out disappointments, it's all of our upperclassmen, less Jordan.
Black, Finke and Alstork....those are supposed to be the go to guys on a young team. They're nowhere to be found. That's the issue right now.

He was the only one doing anything on offense at the end of the game. The last possession was bad. Just like alstorks possession was bad. TJL showed up today.
Screw great effort. We need to start winning some of these close games. NW MADE FT WHEN IT COUNTED. Our players still don't have the confidence to win. I hope BU changes that. The more I think about it the lack of a to at then of overtime burns me up. That was a pure Groce move and we all remember how well those worked.

Not putting it on TJL, but he with other PG options that can shoot free throws dependably, he should not be in the game at clutch time and certainly not attempting the last shot. I would foul him in a heartbeat at that point, as he will not make two. Any of the frosh guards would be a better choice IMHO, but not really trying to question the coaches. TJL is simply not a confident free thrower and the others are. Otherwise, I really liked what TJL did on the floor tonight...tough kid who plays hard for his team every minute. But he has to improve from the FFL or sit in the stretch.
Trust me I'm not disappointed in Finke because He's not shown me he's a B1G caliber player. Disappointed in TJL because he can be better. On to the next one!

Need to start playing some tougher non-neutral site road games early in the season. It's not helpful to sit at home and feast on bad teams and then expect to win road games when it matters.
