We really let them screw us up with the kitchen sink entry pass prevention

We will progress to the norm on 3 point shooting. But we have to stop turning the ball over.

Let me correct some bad information...these teams do not know each other well. This is almost entirely a new Mi. team. This broadcast team (and I rarely complain of any) sure did not do their homework. Other than can spout facts from the stat sheet...but insights are either missing or fabricated. Whatever they are getting paid is too much. But then again, it is FOX, so facts are not required.

An absolutely embarrassing effort. You’re gonna miss shots but just an inexcusable effort.

I know it's a slow game but Jim Jackson is bringing the energy of a baked potato to this broadcast. Awful.
I wish it was the broadcasting that I was upset about. Our guard play on offense and ability to get the offense started and in to Kofi has been horrible.

Hawkins needs to put up a 3, He has passed on about 5 open looks to dribble nowhere. Is his confidence to shoot really that gone. I do not remember the last shot he took that was not at the rim

Wow, I know it’s Friday and many of us have had a few … but there’s a country mile between “everything is going great!” and complete meltdown mode. Some of you must really freak out the friends and family in your life. :)

With that said, we have to make some real adjustments. Ball movement looks too slow to deal with their zone. Need the passing improved and to start hitting open shots. They can’t stop Kofi, but they can put two guys on him to deny an entry pass. We need to keep the ball movement going and make them pay from three to free him up.

Obviously, the results thus far aren’t totally “fine.” When people are saying “we’re fine,” I’m taking it to mean we’ll be okay this game.
Correct.
The hyperventilating when we have a half (that we're leading in btw) that doesn't look like the Globetrotters vs the Washington Generals is hilarious.
We're not horrible, we aren't a juggernaut.
