In all fairness I don't think he ever left. He lost a bit of confidence in his shot but continued to do most other things pretty well and other players step up to contribute offensively but yes it's great to see Trent shooting with confidence. Love the way he finished the half.

But he did have a couple great defensive possessions vs Murphy. Hope he finds his niche in this reduced role.Not quite. All except for Kipper.
I didn't see that half as "meh" at all.

It also says "deep in the woods" for some reason.

I agree with post #69. I think the little bit that is off on outside shooting for AJ and TJ will come around. Shots are tending to be long/lots effort and energy juicing the ball a bit. I suspect BU gave TF a note card before the game saying take your shots, and I think he will continue strong in the second half. AYO has 3 boards, 3 assists, a steal and only 1 foul. I think he's making really good passes generally and having a strong point guard-type-game.
I understand it just bugs me.

Trent continuing to get his shots and AYO is distributing
Agreed, gotta take the good with the bad, he's gonna get better with more pt and better D, Big upside!
There's that arm again by Washington.
Does BU think we’re out of time outs?

Annoying basketball again
Not to pick on one guy, because a lot went wrong there, but Damonte just has to hit those wide open threes. Should’ve been an answer that would’ve calmed everything down 7 points ago or so
In the pre-game thread I posed the question, "what is the luck" stat Kenpom tracks that we sit at 350. I'm guessing this 13-1 run they're on would qualify. Really haven't done anything horribly wrong during the stretch.

This. He’s missed multiple wiiiiide open looks already.
we are sreverting back to our old ways. need some poise.
Completely agree. Problem is, Damonte doesn't knock down those shots, really ever. Earlier they said they watch AG knock down 19 in a row during practice and yet he gets 2 minutes in the first half.
