We are playing very unselfishly right now. There may be hope for this team yet

[msstate7]

Q and Malik both have a 3 and a nice drive to the basket.

[starkvegasdawg]

5 assists already. Also see Holman with two fouls early.

[BiscuitEater]

We are getting more comfortable with the zone D .. Doing better with it too. Of course the level of competition helps.

Yep. I wanna get excited about how much better we've played these last 3 games, but the opponents have me hesitant. I do think we're improving though.

[msstate7]

Love Malik driving more

[msstate7]

I realize Malik coming back isn't very likely, but good grief Q and Malik would be great together next season

[MarketingBully]

I'm more concerned then you guys I guess. UNCC holds a 13-3 offensive rebounding edge which is all effort and 12 of our 22 shots were three pointers so we are settling for jump shots instead of getting it inside to Ware. We also have six turnovers. I am thinking the long layoff has the most to do with it but I don't see them sharing like they did against Northern Colorado.

[MarketingBully]

Usually, I am not trying to look for negative things but I just didn't see the same team work I saw in the Northern Colorado game.

[PSYCHO(thesis)DEFENSE]

We actually had a positive point margin during a stretch where Malik, Chicken, & Ware were all on the bench. Getting Holman back was don trump HUGE. When he went down my expectations dropped dramatically, & should have been lower. We are a much better team now than 2 weeks ago.

[MarketingBully]

I agree with you though msstate7, Malik is the best player on the floor.

[MarketingBully]

Yeah, adding Holman is a huge positive. He is going to be another great player to add to the mix.

I think we are playing unselfishly, maybe too much so, but our rhythm is off from the NoCol game.

[msstate7]

Boys, Malik is getting healthy. He can drive now

[MarketingBully]

We can be a very good team if we play within ourselves and give half of our shots to Newman and Ware. If we do that, we can get to 8-10 wins in the SEC.

Barring injuries, I think we're gonna be pretty good by the end of the year... Really hate we let the southern, Texas tech, and umkc games get away. Those losses will probably cost us nit bid

[chef dixon]

We look better but seriously they have gotten an offensive rebound on every single possession.

[MarketingBully]

They have a 21-6 offensive rebound advantage. Otherwise, we would be up 40+.

Our walk-ons need a lot of work.**
