Dawgs win! Good job, guys
We beat them in a big 3 sport! F*cking finally!
From what I could see, we play the same way as the other teams. IMO, it's the facade of fouling and so refs look at us more then the other team. Howland doesn't seem to complain regarding it so they keep it up. Florida got away with murdering us with their defense and were able to jump over our backs to get offensive rebounds which was the difference in that game. They also called fouls away from the ball (bullshit in every since of the word) and that was a big difference as well. Not a single off the ball foul was called in today's game and that is the way it should be.
I'm hoping this might get the team over the hump. Hopefully they're starting to figure out how to finish games.
As much as I dislike ready, we need Malik and the 2. We're much better offensively when Malik isn't at the point
Difference in this game was Newman hit shots like we knew he could. If he does that to start SEC play instead of right now, our record is easily 4-2 right now instead of 1-5 with wins over A&M, Tennessee, and Florida.
We've got to find a way to improve by 1000% our perimeter defense. This is getting nauseating when even shitty three point shooting teams can make three pointers on us. Ole Miss' three point shooting and our turnovers were the only reasons why they even had a chance in the end.
Please stop the stupidity. IJ is a good point guard
It helps if Ware doesn't foul out
That's exactly right and there are two reasons for it in my opinion. When you aren't as talented as the guy you are guarding you find yourself out of position a lot. They were allowed to get away with it by the previous regime FAR too much. In fairness the previous regime had no choice to let them. Howland doesn't have much of one either, YET.
I actually thought OM played over their heads for the most part.
This+. Ready helps Newman be better. When he was out with 3 fouls in 1st half, Newman did nothing. Newman does not play the point well at all and we flounder when he is point. Also notice Ready broke the OM press and was able to get the ball up the floor in the last few minutes. That was critical.
Anyone still think a team wouldn't take Malik in the 1st round?
Malik is still just a shooter. Once he put it all together and starts finishing on his drives hes going to be hell. He cant live and die by the long ball. Weve seen him try and live by the long ball through the first 6 games of conference play.
Ready is not great by any means, but he gets more blame on this board than he should. He does a lot of good.
Just reading through this thread, I would have thought we were getting blown out.
Mississippi shot the ball well today. Played over their collective heads offensively.
Team is playing hard. Good to see. Should have a shot in two road games this coming week.
We will lose at South Carolina. We will have a chance at Missouri
We are 1-5 and barely beat an injured UM team. I don't have much confidence in us winning in the road. I hope I'm wrong.
This, all day long. He had at least four dribble drives that gave him decent looks at the rim today and he didn't finish any of them. He's got to start making those or at least drawing fouls. Hopefully his break-out game from beyond the arc today will help boost his confidence and he'll start making some of those layups.
Yep a lot of the problem is that when we help on defense we're either late with the help or we over help and don't get back to the man leading to a wide open 3. I noticed this in rays first exhibition game in 2012. And it's still a lingering problem. But definitely a great win today for the dogs
Lets get it straight, IJ had a terrible first half. And a good second half overall.
