Terrible call on Burrows for her 4th but don’t get a whine from Lobo and Roucco on that call- just silence. to the point i thought Lobos mic malfunctioned

Bofia sees the court before Thomas. Her mobility is probably winning the day. I assume we have brought her in because the freshman Bell is killing us; hope she can mark her.

Maybe we should keep shooting three point shots. It seems to be working out very well.

33% from 3 is OK, but 37% on 2 pt attempts is really bad. the failed dribble drives are the bigger issue right now.

The dribble drives are largely not on ball movement, but players trying to create out of stagnant sets. That's a reoccurring problem in the CB era. The ball largely sits still, is over-dribbled and we settle for a contested shot.

Just rarely good offense against good teams.

There we go. Miss a million shots and not box out.

And not box out again.

May be the most frustrating opening game I've ever seen.

I'm starting to think that CB spends so much practice time on defense that we don't get enough reps of basic stuff like layups and free throws

maybe true at times in the past. But we have rarely been in a single digit shot clock in this game. If anything we are moving too fast.

We just cant match Oklahoma's interior defense.

And the bigger issue is 30 pts allowed this quarter. No bueno.

You can still have a stagnant possession without running a lot of shot clock. Even that last possession that Akot scored on...

Kelly dribbled the entire time (almost lost it). Made one pass to Akot. Akot dribbled more than a handful of times and threw a shot up. No movement off the ball.

That's a very typical possession for a CB team.

Yep. Enjoying Paris too much. That's why we can't put much stock in these early season games far from home.
The other team is play ing in Paris too!
