I knew we would take a slight step back defensively but wow we need to sharpen it up fast, just lack of attention to detail.
I honestly think it will right when the conditioning sets in. We seem to go through this year after year.

I’m fairly certain the defensive struggles are just rust. We saw similar stuff last year around this team against VCU, VT and Texas A&M

It’s honestly really shocking to see this defense get so shredded after what we’ve been used to the last few years. TJ has a lot of work to do with them

Problem is TJ’s scheme assumes they are as good as last year - and they aren’t (at least not right now). Would love to see some adjustments instead of continuing to aggressively double team but get burnt after they pass out of it.

Our defense has looked so bad this tournament. Hope they get it figured out before conference play
Giving up a lot of open 3s and back cuts for layups. That last inbounds play we gave up a layup is a play every high school team uses in the country.
May want to kick the tires on Watson imo
What’s it going to hurt?

We seem incapable of corralling lose balls on rebounds too. Every single one goes off of our hands

Frontcourt depth will be put to the test today with the foul issues

Heise with awful defense leading to a wide open look from the corner and then commits the foul. Don’t understand why this kid plays so much.

Just heard form the annoucers that Lipsey is not 100% due to a "left" shoulder injury a couple of weeks ago.

Anyone heard of this? First time for me.
