Amazing we are not down by 20 or more the way we are playing. With Gu's wrist injury, he joins Whitt as only a mid-range shooting threat. McMurray is the only guy we have who can spread a defense. REALLY disappointed our frosh haven't stepped up more. Landrum is a hustler but makes a good steal late and then gets in trouble and (rather than calling TO) throws it away when none of his teammates come back to help

Did Douglas ever play anything besides private school basketball in Memphis? Never seen a player from that city be so timid.

Good grief - and people call our players pathetic?

That was a depressing first half.

I never called them pathetic...so don’t put me in that circle. Wow you and CP get a little too serious with my comments. C’mon it’s not fun to watch. If shake was in then we have a chance.

With Gu and Ethan playing at less than 100% and Shake out, I really think the only chance we have of winning another game this season is for Landrum and Douglas to become more productive scorers. Just too much pressure on McMurray and Whitt right now. Agau has at least tried to give us some low post scoring

Not fair. You cheer for both teams.

As tough as it will be with only 7 guys, these guys need to score in transition as much as possible. I like seeing Gu take it to the hoop and taking his shots within the paint. That's his new range. Would like to see Landrum penetrate and find McMurray on some kick outs

I know but at least you have a reason for the option.

Unless someone gets super hot this is a loss you have to make a basket once in awhile don't you?? How can you stay that cold.

Being too diplomatic, CP

Late in the season and our Freshmen look totally inept against a very marginal team.

Whitt can't buy a bucket but has 7 boards and 2 steals so he's doing what he can. Just can't afford to count on him as a scorer
