@wissox

You've nailed the big issues.

300 (dang 301)

Good night all until next time.

Maybe see some of you all next Friday in the Field House for UNC Ashville.

@KUSTEVE he doesn't publish his straight up TY v LY. Just against the spread.

@KUSTEVE I think Jesse is doing both straight up and point spread. I know where you're coming from though.

I know we can win every game.

I'm just not always convinced we WILL win every game.

Hardest ones are the ones we SHOULD win and don't

@KUSTEVE said:

@Bwag My winning percent is 82%- what's his?

Against the spread or straight up? :-)

@KUSTEVE yes he did.

Are we just out athleting teams this year (as we go forward)?

@Bwag said:

Right on cusp of the spread

Jesse had Sienna covering the 22 pt spread and they just did

Right on cusp of the spread

Stat check:

Fg% - 56%
3pt%-20%
Ft%-65%

@BShark was a grab while he was on floor OR are we in bonus.

Must have Called out of bounds?

I'm at a loss

Svi locked down the right corner there!

@BeddieKU23 that's a problem.

Self needs to or he's gonna be on the equivalent of crutches at end of year.

Our 3-pt shooting from the corner set 3 may be our shot

Nice guard play on the break

@Bwag You in the dark again tonite ??

I'm gonna bee in the bright light of the Field House next Friday!

@BShark I'm not down on us at all. We've got some major gaps needing filled. We're athletic as heck. Maybe that will be a ticket to success - if Self's - the system guy- head doesn't explode. :-).

Devonte playing a little freer.

FT% 61

Down to 11% 3pt %

Good drive and bounce pass dish there

Graham fading left on that 3 attempt.

Dead ball 3pt make sighting.

@stoptheflop I'm not convinced.

I don't see a coach/core player meeting happening this year that gives him a superhuman confidence level. Hope I'm wrong.

What's the term: "Reversion to the mean"?

need Danny back on staff to coach our bigs.

@HawkChamp said:

@BShark Self said Udoka can, but why aren't we getting him the ball on the block?

We need to, but it was a lotta ugly last game if he wasn't in close. I'm confident he'll learn, too athletic not to, but I'm concerned he doesn't have anyone to really show him. Will have to be tape of some ex players.

@BShark you nailed that.

Lucas isn't gonna get it

Azibuike will get it but is raw and the factor is learning timeline-this year or next, I'm pulling for his quick study

Bragg is the X-factor. We know he's got mid range. Is he gonna become an inside player when a strong inside game is needed.

@BShark if that's the excuse, then I'm concerned about March already.

I don't see us resting Graham and more so Mason much.

We've got to see our inside game pick up some slack.

1/7 for 16% from 3pt land.

It's becoming a thing.

@HawkChamp they're gonna have to prove it.

I think they'll improve.

Azabuike needs to play and develop. Hopefully he comes along quickly. He's not gonna learn offensive moves from LL. Maybe positioning.

@Eric-san said:

I don't think you're going to shoot 25% for the rest of the season when they shot 40%+ last year.

Can only hope but I'm not convinced we have the guns that bring the confidence level of the group up.

Hope so, but soon gonna have to prove it.

Lucas is an issue. That's not a foot problem.

3-pt shooting is officially a problem.

Shooting 25% so far tonight.

1/4 though so can improve yet

@stoptheflop said:

Any reason at all to guard Siena on the 3 ball? Or is this a scrimmage where we just let them shoot and if they miss fast break up court.

Question may be should Sienna guard our 3 ball the way we've been shooting it from 3.

@stoptheflop yes

@BShark we know Self will be in their ears during this TO.

12- 12.

Are we gonna stop them?

Aldrich taking it to Dukie Okafor

Embiid went for block on Wiggins, but didn't get it. Wiggins got it to go.

Embiid is just impossible not to see on the court.

@kjayhawks must have fallen asleep there.

Not a fan of NBA style.

Though watching Aldrich ball right there was good.. RB then block

Been trying to pull him back in. So far can't get him to. Mentioned he'd be back, but...

Fighting battles elsewhere. Trying to pull him back in!

@Bwag said:

Week D by Wiggins. He's not playing for Self now. Allowed a layup.

But I guess that is NBA. Pick your spots to play hard.

Not a fan.

Week D by Wiggins. He's not playing for Self now. Allowed a layup.

Embiid 4 pts. 3 RB
Wiggins 2 pts 1 RB

In first 5.

Looks like they were double teaming Embiid.

He seems to have hurt an ankle after being fouled early.

But got a rebound and put back.

Embiid scores on lob over the top of the D

Interesting listening to NBA crew talking about our two former players as the future stars in 4 years.

Tipoff now.

11:05 pm.

These late games are going to be great this year.
