We've scored about as many as TJ's first team did on occasion. Remember the games in the 40's?

I don't know how it could get any worse than it is right now. Blown out two straight games by two teams that really aren't as good as we are. Something has to be happening in the locker-room or something else we don't know about.
I think that’s a bad take. Getting blown out at home. I certainly agree with. Getting beat at Kansas when we shoot this poorly is not unexpected. they don’t exactly suck, and have way more scoring coming off the bench than we have right now.

Our FB team was picked to win 7 games, they won 11.

Our BB team kept being called "Final Four" material by media and they barely resemble a tournament team the last few weeks.

So weird.
We aren't as bad of a team as we are playing now but think the media and fans missed on this being a Final 4 type team. Think the early season offense tricked a lot of people. Just aren't good enough there from a system standpoint and probably a player standpoint as well.

I just can’t comprehend what does TJ see in Heise. If I went and clipped up every time he sprints past a guy on the three point line this year I could probably put together about 5 minutes of film. Dude just does not close out under control ever

I guarantee this isn’t how coaches want Gilbert to play but if he isn’t going to listen what do you do? Bench him? Serious question? Let him keep failing until he listens or bench him? Hero ball doesn’t work
Literally nothing is working. No flow, no spacing, no rhythm, no plan. Might as well play hero ball.

Yep and it's why people believe having a 44% 3pt shooter back from injury will help
Oh, Milan absolutely will force teams to play the 3-point line more, but we have to get more than just him and CuJo to be a threat. Tamin and/or Keshon has to shoot well and with some volume. I appreciate that Tamin is at least putting the effort in.
