Last 3 seasons that pass would have sailed out of bounds. Out bigs have good hands.

Adams is gassed - he hasn’t sat for more than a minute, he is barely jumping on his shots, is getting lazy which is why he’s making bad decisions.
he's been lazy since the tip

This team gives you just enough to not want to totally give up on them - then reminds you why you're so ready to let them go so well in the span of like... five minutes.

Nothing to do with his handle. He barely ever takes more than a step or 2 once he gets the ball. You think he's eager to create contact? Lmfao.

He goes behind his back once or twice a game and then never recovers the ball. He dibbles off his own foot at least once a game. He can't gather after jump stopping.

His handle is not good.

AND he is a slow and poor decision-maker.

It's unbelievable to think Larrier is an NBA prospect. He's useless...
And Jalen. I think his NBA projections are overrated. Larrier really needs to get stronger and significantly improve his handle to have any shot in the NBA.

Yeah.

But still, what exactly did he think he was doing? Let's say that pass threaded the needle - what good would've come from cramming it to a guy in the paint surrounded by 3 defenders?
It was terrible play and he's a Junior. Has he rested at all?

Finally! Note to Ollie: you may want to have Diarra practice FT shooting

I wonder if these guys actually practice any fundamentals.

I don't feel like repeating myself, just go find what I said to the other guy who said this exact thing. He's just a guy that for whatever reason doesn't feel comfortable in catch & shoot situations. He has to feel the ball in his hands before doing anything, except he doesn't have the talent to actually do anything.

He's averse to contact, lazy passer, loose handle, no left, and just doesn't lead. Year three and he's still just a scorer.

Someone needs to flash to the middle or nothing can happen against the zone. Have they not figured that out 37 minutes in?

Why can't we just show up in the first half for once?

Should we really be taking as a silver lining the fact that we didn't get blown out by an unranked team in the second half?

The fact is this game hasn't been competitive since the 10 minute mark of the first half, and we've given up a season's worth of highlight-reel plays.
