Refs are going to cut into our lead shortly…got to keep it close.

Why does Nunn play so much? He just let the guard go right by him on that fastbreak, forcing Walter to try to jump the pass on a 2-on-1.

That guy has no business playing as many minutes as he does. He should be coming off the bench as our fifth guard.

Garrison an absolute phenom. Scouts seeing a nice battle between Garrison and Missi.

We have been driving on every play. Yet we have more fouls than them.

Small and Garrison are both going to be really good. If OSU could keep those two together, they'd be special in a year or two.

They have to literally jump on our backs to get a whistle.

Meanwhile on the other end any ticky tack foul is getting whistled.

agreed. I think we would be better starting Miro, benching Nunn, and leaving love in his sixth-man role where he is thriving.

Get Nunn out of there. Inexcusable.

That's was definitely a foul on the floor. So weak.
Our vibrations were getting nasty. But why? I was puzzled, frustrated... Had we deteriorated to the level of dumb beasts?

It's got nothing to do with their defense. We are just ice cold
Johnny Bear

Are we shooting like 10% from 3? Sure feels like it.

Nevermind. Just saw Sic Em's post.

Walter picked a bad time for his worst game of the season. He's been awful.
Quinton

Wide open can't break the bucket. Really need to get this one on the road. Space with Dennis on block extended and let them work.
