We just lost two games in the same exact scenario back to back--even the shot was the same. What the heck would the odds be on that?
Well we SHOULD be 5-1. We were up in both games VERY late--we had BOTH games in multiple(heck with FT's to win both both missed) ways yet we lost. We held Yale to 32% shooting. We played Texas very good who played Kentucky very good at Kentucky.
We play good defense every game which will go a long way.
I dont think Boatshow shouldve played and I dont think KO was smart throwing guys under the bus. I wrote in a post that Id rather guys sit for the next two weeks to get rid of the injuries rather than playing and having them nag---what real benefit did we have with Boatright tonight--he was clearly laboring. I really believe we shouldve put it on the guys who were healthy and for them to step up.
It really stinks we lost--weve gone from the penthouse to the outhouse real quick--and we didnt need to be there. Our bigs have to give more--thats what I took out of this--if we are going to miss outside shots--then we need to get to loose balls and put them back in. BOTH Facey and Nolan have to do more--OR I think that Hamilton should be moved to 4 once Purvis and Calhoun are really back
I also said before the season--a line up of Brimah and Nolan wont work. It clogs the lane for our ballhandlers to drive and they dont give enough. Its Ok once in awhile but not for lengthy periods. I think that if Facey cant cut it---Hamilton at 4 is the way to go. He can still play guard so to speak and we would need brimah to step up and get bounds.
