we are 3-18 from 3, law of averages say we should go about 8-18 this half.
At some point, you have to play your guys and trust them to get it done. Nothing has really worked thus far so shut down the blender. The question is which 5 do you trust to bring it home for you?
At this point, I go:
KJ
Boswell
DGL
Tre
Morez
Run it and hope.

We should be running plays and driving in the lane. We can't find one guy cutting to the rim? Oh, we are lazy and would rather jack 3's
So does my phone!
KJ was bailing out the team a lot earlier in the year with his makes, a lot of which were tough shots going 1 on 1. If he regresses even a little, then it’s a pretty weak offensive team especially with no Tomi to open the floor
How is playing Ben and Jake inside against B1G power forwards and centers working out for us? You need more players in a physical league like the B1G who are capable of defending down low. Players get hurt. You need to have your bases covered.

I had to go to a dark Rye Basil Hayden for the 2nd half.
DGL reminds me of TSJ. Wait until the next two years and you will see why I say that.

Then shame on us. If we’re not good enough to beat effing Nebby just because one dude is out then we sure as sh** didn’t plan well in developing our roster and/or developing alternative game plans in the weeks he’s been out.

Rez, if you could avoid getting your third foul for a while, it'd be greatly appreciated.

I'd start DGL over Kylan this half
It's the players. When you're 3-18 from three, are missing free throws, have no assists and what ....6 turnovers(??), don't look at the sidelines.
I'm sorry, Ben, you have to make that wide open 3 in rhythm. You just do.
18:05 and Morez gets his 3rd
You were saying
I would say the group is just reflecting the play on the court.
Then it's an epic failure of team construction and offensive strategy. We have a consensus top 5 pick playing on our team. Another 5 star transfer from Arizona and a 5 star freshman. Many other 5 star freshman are leading teams at this point in the season. As far as I can see they all stand out front and throw the ball to each other until the shot clock forces them to try to drive one on one into traffic or take a bad 3. Tomi is important, no doubt, but my God he's not even in the top 20 B10 statistical leaders. I thought we were one of the most talented teams in the country? Sure hasn't looked like it since the Penn St game. Not sure what is going on, but it's bigger then one guy by far.
That's what I hope but unfortunately that law extends infinitely. We have had several games with 5-20+ shooting from three.
Just an idea, if we're only have Morez and Hummer as options to play the 5 (sorry Booth) and both have 2 fouls. Maybe sit one to start the 2nd half.
Ben my goodness....
keeping Morez in....
keeping Morez in....
Hummer bruh
