Gdamn that was a sweet shot by Mayer

Davion Mitchell's court vision on offense has improved so much over the past year. He's a legit offensive threat.

Too many dumb errors.

We go lucky with that miss.

We're dribbling the air out of the ball. We should be up by 20.

Flagler does look a step slow on everything

Careless ball handling is killing us!

We're hitting shots, but man do we look disjointed on offense.

I turned it on late. I've seen 7 f'ing turnovers!

Yep too much dribbling and resulting in turnovers. The foolish fouls on 3 pointers don't help either.

I'd like to see us get the ball to Mayer on the elbow and run some high low with JTT.

We've been successful when getting the ball into the paint. Doesn't have to be done by dribbling

I think Vital is great, but so far this half he's been more of a hindrance than he's been an asset.

And another turnover.

You do know he has 7 rebounds, right?

Put Cryer in and give him a shot. The other guys just want to play rec league one-on-one dribble and turnover.
Alf

Butler got the "yips" on the breakaway
Yeek
How long do you want to ignore this user?
They just playing harder and out hustling us

This is so sloppy. They better wake up fast.

Agreed, can't afford to f around with this team or we will get beat

Playing as stupid a game as I've seen us play in a few years.

Thank god Mayer came to play.

Manek has no chance against Mayer
