I think the turnovers and allen iverson showing up for MSU in the second half did us in.Simple as that.. can not hide the fact this team shoots poorly. They can get away with it versus the Colgates of the world but against quality teams like tonight, this will be exposed all year long. Terrible!
This team (MSU)is beyond quality. They are an easy top 5 and title favorite. Relax.Simple as that.. can not hide the fact this team shoots poorly. They can get away with it versus the Colgates of the world but against quality teams like tonight, this will be exposed all year long. Terrible!
Yeah, relax, can not hide the fact this team does not have a shooter that can knock it down consistently..This team is beyond quality. They are an easy top 5 and title favorite. Relax.
3 players with 50 of our 57 points. 2 starters with no points.Yeah, relax, can not hide the fact this team does not have a shooter that can knock it down consistently..
Dislike your post.Simple as that.. can not hide the fact this team shoots poorly. . . . Terrible!
You are never going to get easy open shots playing one on one basketball. Did Jalen or Gilbert ever penetrate and kick the ball back out to the perimeter for an open three? This team sucks at team fundamentals, and that's all on the coaches. Everyone needs to get involved on the offensive end of the floor with crisp passing, for a team to gel, the coaches need to teach that in practice. Simple reason we don't make a lot of assists is because nobody passes on this team.About 60% of our poor shooting is not getting easy shots. It's amazing that Larrier made those 2 quick 3's in the 2nd half when he was wide open on both.
Ok, I will take my ball and go home.. dislike all you want, its the truth.. yes MSU is a great team but if you can't shoot and shoot consistently, driving to bucket is only going to go so far, especially against teams who are half decent, which are most D1 teams.. not a top 25 team, sorryDislike your post.
We played a very, very good team tonight. You will ALWAYS struggle with shooting when you play great teams. They are top-ranked BECAUSE they have the athletic talent to shut you down. 22 struggled to find his shot early on. Got blocked by a larger, quick defender on one fade away. MSU is very good.
Our team is solid. Not top 10, and we won't be through the rest of the year.
But top 25?
Yes. We should finish in the top 25.
And that, for this year, would be a success.

Two flaws: Lack of consistent outside shooters and lack of an offensive inside game from our bigs. Forces UConn to become dribble penetrate type of team.
Agreed even if the guy in the post doesn’t score he needs the ball to help move the defense. You can also use cutters off the post to free up our scorers. The ball gets stuck with three guys consistently with the other two trying to screen or are just watching.You are never going to get easy open shots playing one on one basketball.

Too funny.
