Well, with tolu then.

We're 241st in 3 point FG% allowed and Alabama is top 40 in 3 point FGs made. Expect nothing different if Howland stays in that lazy *** man defense. Bama will rip him a new orifice. 86-64 Bama.

FWIW, I'm worried about their 3s too, but if you're gonna use our 3-pt fg % def, use their 3-pt fg% offense, 248th

Tolu is scheduled to play.

Lazy man defense? Someone doesn't know basketball as much as he thinks he does...

Nice call

Nice call

Tolu makes Brooks that much better and vice versa.

I'm still for a starting lineup of Smith, Brooks, Matthews, Molinar and Moore. And the way we play a ball screen on defense is puzzling.

Agree that Tolu and Brooks elevate each other. Huge fan of Garcia off the bench

Our defense on ball screening may be a result of our off-ball defending, of which we seem to get lost sometimes. May be more due to switching poorly at times
