Yeah lots of subs early. Trying to stay fresh defensively? Sorta weird.

Good start for Q. Sorry Justin

After I posted about Q he missed a FT then a had a bad turnover but then hit a 3. So really the full Q experience.

Half court defense has been ok. Too many transition opportunities. Long rebounds leading to run outs.

Starting to think we aren’t good.

DW passing up a semi contested layup so Breed can get an off balance floater. Defense back to kinda sucking.

It’s the same issue it’s been. Half court offense after a made basket or dead ball is generally ok. Any other time we just don’t get back on defense quick enough and dudes are wide open. We’re out of position. Bad offense leading to easy offense for the opponent.

Well yeah, breed is in the game. Did no one else notice how the defense turned to shit when he subbed into the games in Maui

I agree!

Just for fun I looked at the Texas - UVa box score. Texas is currently 1/8 from 3. Pope is 0/4. Glad we put something on film that UVa could learn from.

The classic college basketball tradition of the second half being officiated with a way tighter whistle than the first half.

Do your soul a favor and turn this game off immediately!

Look at the box score after a good night's sleep and a cup of coffee.

We either force a turnover or give up an open look. We have good defensive energy generally. Active hands and tip a lot of passes and get steals. But we also just give up wide ass open looks. Sometimes nobody picks up the ball and they break the press with an easy dunk. Other times we don’t rotate fast enough. It’s kind of a miracle this game is even somewhat close. They’re shooting 65%, 50% from 3.

They’ve missed 11 shots. That’s all. Able has missed 7 all by himself.

Fucking lol I mean come on

Teams just get white out hot against us. D gives open looks. And then I guess it just gives them confidence that they can hit anything even if it is well defended

Multiple open looks for McNeil. Just can’t knock them down. Could’ve made this a very interesting finish if we knocked down a couple of them

Hey i turned this shit on. Good to see breed lazily close out on a three and not contest at all. This level of defensive ineptness is impressive.

I'm ready to check out on the will wade experience. You don't get to talk all that shit in the offseason and spend s shit ton of money on a roster to shit the bed against every single decent team on the schedule

DW isn’t the dude we need him to be. Not an especially good defender or rebounder. He’s a good scorer but not really a guy that’s just gonna take over a game. He’s pretty passive. He’s a good shooter and crafty but we need dogs. Holloman and Q have that mentality but they aren’t gonna be able to do it on a nightly basis. They can and will have good games but if we’re counting on high scoring totals from them every game we’re in trouble.

Lol we had 3 guys play 8+ minutes and combined to score 0 points. I get why Sangia has to play (because we have no post players) and Arceneaux is our best defender (lol) but once again, WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT OF BREED PLAYING? He isn't a good defender. He brings next to nothing on offense. He's just there.

He's worse offensively and better defensively. Evens out I guess.

He also plays like 10 mins a game compared to 30+ for MOC. So there’s really nothing to compare.

O'Connell was just a terrible defender and terrible shooter who was good at taking care of the ball and decent at running an offense. He infuriated me because he should have been playing backup minutes but was instead playing 30 minutes a game and should have never been playing in late game situations.

Breed just doesn't do anything. He doesn't shoot (which i guess is good because historically he is bad at it), he doesn't rebound, he doesn't play tough defense. On offense he mostly just stands in a corner. On defense, he's like the smallest guy on the team and makes that switching everything tougher on everyone.

I don't hate him with a passion, i just don't understand why he's regularly getting minutes. He's not doing anything! Other teams clearly know this and can easily shade defense away from him, making everything tougher on his teammates when he's playing.
