Abraham got called for some weird “fouls” but honestly he looked better than Ball and Mahaney. Very disappointing Ball can’t positively impact the game outside of hitting open 3s (which is valuable - a lot of college players brick 3s whether they’re open or not).
 
The game was scheduled and had to be played but was an embarrassment to all. There is not one positive statistic from this game that can be extrapolated with any confidence. We go into the Baylor game with the same starting lineup that came out of Maui, although probably without Karaban and with Liam's 3-point funk continuing and deepening.

I feel as if Danny promised SJ a lot, but SJ is pretty much the same player with worse guards around him.

He looks like less of a player...sauntering down court. Watch him; it's frustrating. Mind-boggling that Hurley continues to start him.
 
Was at the game tonight and think everyone needs to relax. No Karaban to calm the offense down. Stewie plays jaylen brown style offense but is a sieve defensively. Double screens and off ball screens to get the shooter open were great today. Defense is still a work in progress but I’ll take the positives today for sure
 
Can you be unimpressed by a 50+ point win? We went almost seven minutes in the first half without scoring and missed something like nine straight threes. McNeeley’s shooting isnt as advertised so far. Diarra with dumb fouls. Reed was a beast, but against poor competition. Honestly the only I took away from this was Abraham needs more minutes.

We have a potential star in Stewart
I’m not sure how we get him 28-30 minutes

Ross also showed that he can be an all around Swiss Army knife
We looked more athletic and diverse
 
Nice to see Ross hit a couple of threes. His energy reminds me of Jackson. Now he needs to turn activity into accomplishment.

10-10 and three is a great line. If he can come close to those numbers, we are a lot better.

Ross looked a little calmer tonight. All season he's just looked like he's in a rush with everything he does. Eventually the game will slow down for him and he will start to make a bigger impact.

Guy on TNT said scary news from the game today with Alex Karaban banging his head with 2 minutes left in the game and being rushed to the hospital.

Refs do that sometimes. They see a player come in they haven’t seen before and start calling fouls on him. It’s annoying

Not nearly as twitchy the athlete.

And no clue as to the Dan devotion to SJ other than possible blackmail.

Maybe we watched different games but Mahaney was still bad on D besides a couple deflections and Ross was pretty good and was very active on D. I do agree on Ball. LOL! I did like that Mahney was attacking the basket.

Maybe SJ wanted to transfer after 1st year and Dan convinced him not to go. Hence the loyalty.....
 
Stewart needs to see more time! He is one of the few players who can create his own offense and he plays pretty good D as well as rebounds. It is criminal the small amount of minutes he is getting presently especially in the Memphis game were he was 1 of 2 of our best players that game.

I’m glad this game was scheduled and played. We needed this tune up game to put Maui behind us and to get the funk out of the players minds and work on things before playing Baylor.
FT shooting was a positive, the play of Stewart,Ross and Reed were positives. Yes we played an inferior team but games like this can be confidence boosters for players.
This team has a lot of talent and we know how good the staff is at making adjustments so I’m looking forward to the Baylor game and getting a statement win. I would also think Karaban would be cleared to play by then.

Despite the score, I don’t think we played very well. Being at the game, everything still just looks a bit chaotic out there.

Tarris needs to start.

We played a lot better 2nd half. It looked a lot smoother on TV especially the fast breaking. The first half though was brutal.
