We're bad defensively but our offense may be even more problematic than the defense lately.  We have these explosive stretches every game and then go through 5 minute stretches where we never score a single field goal.  Everything seems difficult for us because everything is based off of movement and there are so few shots right at the rim, we arent getting anything easy...which takes me back to a thread I started over two weeks ago after the Nova game where Tarris Reed only had 3 field goal attempts and made all three of them.

I get that Samson is playing well but he's not a scorer and he's not a rebounder, two things we need desperately and need even moreso with no McNeeley.  Tarris got 10 field goal attempts vs. Butler and made 6 of them but in the Nova, Georgetown, Creighton, and Xavier games he had a combined 9 field goal attempts.  That's insane to me, we've all seen what he can do around the rim with his scoring and rebounding and for some reason he's been completely neutered.  It feels like we're wasting him.
