Ryan Manuel is officially leading the Nation in uncontested missed layups!!!!
At one point does Larry stop being loyal and sit him on the bench!
We once again saw Sterling Brown gives us more defensively and offensively.
I have seen enough and his plus minus is killing us. We are literally playing 4 on 5 with him on the court!

Probably get more PT if Martin is out for an extended period or the rest of the year

He is instant turnover.

We're in the doldrums a bit right now. Maybe chemistry. Maybe Markus is just that good. But for the sake of all that's holy, can we stop picking on individual players from your own team? Seriously.

He really must have the lowest FG% inside one foot in the nation.

I criticized one of our players pretty hard a few years back. He went out a scored 40 points and won a big game for us the next week. (On his own, not because of what I had said) I decided to never criticize individuals again.

No, I think it is because of what you said.

Criticize everybody tonight so they will light it up against Arky. :)

Finish it!!!!!!!!....when you have the chance..no excuses for those misses as he was tentative instead of assertive.

Which is shocking because he is one guy who seems like the kind who will always go for the posterizing dunk first.

Keep attacking the rim.

I think the issue is that he has small hands. Sounds simple, but I know the feeling. Sometimes it's just hard to control the ball. He should just commit to being a defensive specialist and pick your spots to go into attack mode. Become a cheerleader for your teammates the rest of the time.

yep; I expect him to be our lead defender and pick up more fouls than points but he will contribute any way he can

He's certainly not the player I was hoping he'd be, but he's mostly undeserving of the hate on here. He def needs to put more down like he did vs Indiana

The comments have been pretty PG (from what he'd get elsewhere).
