We shot 18% from deep tonight.
We had success when going to basket tonight, but want to shoot 3's instead.

Perry and Woodard are progressing nicely.

It's tough on the road, but this one was winnable.

You can say this for every time we lost a close one this year... but FT and wide *** open layups killed us. Even Q missed a big FT and he is usually clutch.

I actually don’t think we played bad or lazy. It’s really just mental for the most part.

I really like some things we did. We went to the paint a whole lot more then we usually do and we caused them to foul a lot. We didn’t finish at all in the first half unfortunately. That cost state the game.
The second half state did a much better job of finishing at the rim and that’s why state made a run after the hole was dug. Got to play like that second half every game from now on. If so.. we should win a bunch of games especally if we can hit 3s.

No. This game was not about us jacking up 3's and missing them. Too many missed layups and FT's. Hell I WISH Peters had shot more from deep...instead he chose to drive to the basket. Normally a good thing but not tonight.

One of the strangest games I ever remember watching. Both teams would do very little special for 2-3 mins yet go on 9-10 point runs. I will never understand Howland not making them at least prove they could score from outside the paint.

Me too. Try a zone, press early. Use your bigs based on build, skills and abilities. Our guards are who they are, our bigs are all so different in the same offense and defense. We need to utilize our bigs based on their skills. We’re to predictable which teams hammer us at the opportune time.

Both teams struggled shooting the ball. Its almost like they played a basketball game.
