Too many threes. Need to run some actions to the rim

Ugly start. Luckily, Nebraska not doing much better

 

[WWWWRocU]

Can they get it to Epps to see if he has the skills to miss a 3 pointer?

 

[danbor]

You know, given our three point shooting percentage...you'd think we might not start out like this. Someone should tell them about that. Maybe our coach could run the stats and then say something.

When was the last game where we got off to a GOOD start?

 

[New Creation]

Matt Mayer looking more and more like Rust Cohle today for the True Detective fans out there. He may turn into Matthew McConaughey by the end of the season

No purpose to the offense...just reacting and throwing the ball toward the general area of SFC....with no particular row in mind...let alone basket.

 

[Jimbo]

Uninspiring start. We’ll have to win with defense tonight.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Not a whole heck of a lot of movement off the ball for us outside of Mayer and Epps thus far. Energy level needs some beet juice stat.

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

Fun start.

 

[danbor]

It would probably be better to just jack up half court shots every possession. The rebound would be less predictable and we might get some second chance shots.

 

[RML]

Hmm. Running 3 pointers from six feet beyond the arc, and we're on track for about 30 points for the game.

Well....(pondering).......Indiana....tell me again how that worked out?

 

[Illini_Jack]

This half court offense gives me a headache

 

[New Creation]

Coleman threw it right to him…

 

[GoodePodzMelendez]

Why are we so scared to drive the ball?

 

[New Creation]

Too many threes. Need to run some actions to the rim

Like I said.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Much better movement and energy these past couple possessions.

 

[New Creation]

I don’t think we have shown up yet.

 

[madillini4]

Epps needs to put some shots up

 

[Jimbo]

Might be a trap game kind of night.

 

[madillini4]

Epps needs to put some shots up

Bump

 

[New Creation]

Ok. Sam G out scoring our teams. It’s 1 vs 5. He can’t keep this up.

Poor RJ. You can see him thinking on the jumper.
