Dante should only be allowed to shoot from the elbow. He’s certainly proven he can’t make 3s and his layups get swatted. Having a nice night on midrange 2s, though. |

We are a really bad team and it starts with the pg. The difference between us and Creighton in the 1st half was mostly shooting. We missed so many open shots while Creighton made most. Especially during the last 6mins...

Put in Azinge and Muresan. It’s tough enough being a walk-on, but on an awful team where they never get in it must be miserable. |

The difference is Creighton passes until they get a good look. We pass until we get an open shot. And sometimes that doesn’t require a pass.

That and 1 by Tim made me think about how rarely he has gotten to the foul line this year.
Our starting center is about to attempt his FOURTEENTH free throw of the season. He’s 4-13 so far.
For reference, Qudus Wahab attempted 113 last season.

So again what are you celebrating exactly....that we have cut off one aspect of their offense and they are beating us by 17 and might score 90 on us? They score 30...I am with you...it's not even remotely effective defense again tonight... As you say numbers don't lie We all know we have a problem with defense. Remember I am the one who created the thread "What Can We Do About Our Defense?" Remember I started that thread. But my post wasn't about our defense. My post was about Creighton's PnR and how we defended it last year proving that Patrick knows how to defend it. Notice, no easy layups from the PnR this game. Now if you want to talk about the three point shooting of Creighton's, it is obvious we are still working on that aspect of our game. But, if you wanna know what we did to defend it last year, just go and look at that video that you said I posted 5 times and you will see that they stopped Creighton's three point shooting too in that game. Remember we beat them by damn near 30. It is going to take some time for this bunch. They are just too inexperienced. Notice, I didn't say they weren't talented. I said they were inexperienced. They aren’t inexperienced. 2 of the top 4 players in minutes per game are grad students. There is 1 Freshman in the top 6 in minutes per game. It’s mid February, not November. It isn’t “going to take some time for this bunch.” The time is nearly over for this bunch. |

Anyone here doubt that McDermott could take our players and beat his players with them?

We have like 5 turnovers and we are down by 19 at the U12. That is amazing.

Agree- when he shoots threes, he looks like he is pushing the ball with his arms, like a kid who isn't strong enough to shoot from 3. |

Dante’s inability to hit open shots is really hurting this team

He shoots every single time. Every time.
