that gets you beat. Damn guys
You just hit what you're supposed to hit from
The line and you win. 6 straight misses in last 1:30. Yeesh
I?ve never seen us do tonight what we did with that being ICE our own shooters at FT line MANY TIMES! Our players were standing around in the lane trying to figured out where to get and at times TALKING to our shooter!!
Just STOP that BS, get out of the damn lane and let our guy shoot as soon as possible. I could tell Smith was frustrated at the line several times from this 100% NONSENSE! #JustStopIt!!
Yup. Terrible.Quote:

As bad as it was - sucked at free throws, Tolu being kept out from under basket, giving up tons of points off turnovers, etc....- we were within 2 in the last minute. This team has some fight in 'em. Gotta clean up some things and I think they will.Quote:

Bad free throw shooting just seems to be our lot in life. I seriously can't remember the last good free throw shooting team we've had. On the other hand OM always seems to be good from the FT line. I really don't understand it why free throws are so difficult for us.
Maybe the goals are too high for our puny guys. The girls also struggle to shoot free throws. It has GOTTA be the goals! 😳😳😳Quote:

I doubt he's really in full game shape yet and they were letting Bama maul him down low, so he was having to use his legs a lot more than usual to fight for position. Not sure he will lose as much steam as he continues to play himself into better shape.Quote:

Shak Moore 0 for 2 (come on man - you are a guard)
Hubbard 6 for 8 (needs to 7 of 8)
Fort 0 for 1 (needs to make it)
Team 15 for 27
I think that's definitely what it was with Tolu. His minutes per game in his four games back are 19, 20, 29, and 29. That's not exactly easing him back in. It could take him until the end of January to be fully back in game shape.Quote:
