The plan seems to be pack it in and harass Nic. I hope we get at least one more in this class.

We have jump shooters: Nic Moore, Nick Russel, Sterling Brown, and Keith Frazier. We need people that will drive it to the rim. Only Nic can penetrate the D, everyone else is too slow.

We don't need more jump shooters. We're not too slow to penetrate. Sterling Brown is not categorized as a jump shooter.

Please close this thread. Some of you need to keep your thought processes to yourselves, for your own good.

Only Keith and Nic are really good jump shooters. It shows when Nic is off. Sterling did not do well either form the outside. Only real positive was that Keith Frazier had one of his best showings of the season, shooting 3-4 from the field totaling 8 points.

Very nice line for KF. Slowly but surely he is becoming more of as factor. He seems to be able to get a defensive rebound and outlet fairly well too.

How about one other than our point guard.(who had his worst game of the yr basically). Russell is streaky. Other teams seem to all have one when we play them and kill us. Again, you state the obvious...

I was a bit bothered that KF didn't play more in the second half when we couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. He was shooting well and could have put us in a better position to win.

I'm with you, Terry. The subs didn't always add up to the situation I felt.

With the way Houston was knocking down three's I am sure LB felt Frazier would hurt us defensively more than help us on offense.

One stat that I have noticed is that we dominated points in the paint early this year, but now we are not. Nic and Manuel are the only players who try to drive from the outside. Teams have adapted and are forcing us to shoot more from mid-range, which we are not very good at. When Nic, Sterling, and Russell are off from outside, we are dead.

I agree with that but with three minutes left down by six or so, we need to have someone who can hit a three. Keith was 3 of 4.
