RayJ's pushoffs are killing me. They could conceivably call him for a charge every time.


Like that? Lol


I was surprised they did not call that on us

D hasn't been good but what's killing us is their offensive rebounds.


We are ahead. Nothing is killing us. F is a big boy team.

Yeah, dribble down and shoot a 3 by Nunn was what we did last year. Moving it around unselfishly has been working - keep doing it.

One thing I remember about Drew in the past was getting the guards to lay the ball way up high off the glass. Nunn and Dennis havent done that today and 21 is eating their lunch - 3 blocks.


2 of them to my eye were goal tends or very very close to goaltending

I count 12 possessions that would have nearly put them away and either a TO or easy miss followed by a bucket on their end.

This team struggles with consistent focus and seizing momentum. Florida looks solid but should be up 10+ now. Crazy dropping momentum over and over

Yes. Their offensive rebounding and transition offense are impressive. So glad we play meaningful games in November so we can see this stuff and know what to work on.

We are playing good team, offense, and defense. Good hustle. But mostly were winning because we have the crappy banana and cucumber uniforms.
