You can pick at a lot of small things however you want.

Grady 1/3 and 2 shots came in the last 3 minutes compared to TyTy and Wheeler combining for 8/25 is just not gonna win big games.

Brooks was 7/13 with 14 and 5. He’s played worse even though he is the easy scapegoat!

Guys like Notae are gonna be our Achilles heel. We struggled with him and Kennedy Chandler.

Not a lotta guys out there that can fill it up like that, but thinking that’s our matchup to avoid.

Screw it, I love *outside of Keion* this team. Let's just get healthy for the SEC tournament and be ready to make a run. A two seed is fine and the committee wasn't going to give us a one even if we'd won out.

Keion with a game that sums up his career here. Moments of "Hey, I think we may have something" followed by like 4 possessions in a row on both ends of the floor where he is the key reason the possession fails. He had a sequence in the first half where he went missed a layup > left his feet on a three point shooter f'n up the rotation leading to a dunk > gave up a layup next Arkansas possession > has his jumper blocked next time down. That lost board leading to the Arkansas three was huge.

We've got to get him off the floor late in these games. Other than that, we're good.

-Couldn't pay me to listen to a post-game show after a loss, lemond or not.

-I was expecting this to be an L going into it, but annoying to lose it when you storm back and have the ball late up 1. Oh well.

-today was the full Brooks experience. He was instrumental in the comeback but made at least 4 major mistakes that cost us.

-They struggled at times, but great to see Wheeler and TyTy play major minutes and come away unscathed. Just need to get them back in the flow as we head into the big dance.

-As others have said, gotta get Grady on the ball some when teams choke him off the line like that. Granted, Arky might do that better than anybody in the country.

-SEC really did us dirty with the schedule this year.

-Oscar, what else can you even say? What a dominant player.

-I still like my team and coach. 2 seed and title, chill.

Oscar had an all time performance today.

He single handily prevented this from being a redux of the Tennessee game.

And the fact that Keoin Brooks ended up being a huge contributor to pissing that win away will chap my *** until the Ole Miss game.

If my guys can play, I’m starting my guys. Not sure I understand Cal in these situations. Getting down early didn’t lose us the game in the end, I’m just trying to figure out why he dicks around like this? Is it to see if we can break away and he can rest them another game? If they are ready, start them.

Everyone messes up but Brooks habitually does it in key moments of games and it is infuriating. He has made one 3 in 3 months yet he feels he should let it fly with the game on the line?

Yeah- I mean the people saying he was our second best player today are right but so are the people who are absolutely pissed off at him. Enigmatic sonofabitch.

Oh ******** - he could have and should have shot more. Infuriates me that he didn’t.
Again, he plays different when he also gets the ball in his hands instead of Wheeler dominating it.

Grady/Mintz were well balanced at sharing the load/ball. Just by having it more allowed Grady to create more and by default create for himself more.

You can blame Grady or Cal, but with 2 PGs on the court with Grady it takes away Grady’s strength no matter how you spin it.

What the hell happened to CBS?

You've got a big-time Saturday matchup with two top 20 teams, including the flagship program of the f'n sport, with March right around the corner, and we end up with Pete Gillen on color commentary?

I understand he's a former coach and all, but how many dicks and balls did this garbled, stammering hack have to choke down to get this gig? Is there any worse announcer who even comes close to whatever the **** he was trying to say today?

I don’t disagree and overall I’m not disappointed with that game on the road.

But we will not win with Grady taking 3 shots when Wheeler/TyTy combine for 8/25.

Grady will have to be a big part of any kind of run for us.

Honestly, if you look at the tape, I’d say not many more that would have been realistic good looks.

One at the end after his first three that I think he could have pulled the trigger on but the ball was dominated out front by Wheeler and TyTy and no plays or no effective plays were run for him. And, I get it, we were busy attacking. He just didn’t see any open looks from our drives. You want him involved you get him some double screens and set plays. Cal left him hanging out to dry.
