too much dribbling, lack of floor spacing for SMU..

as bad as that half was, they just make their layups and free throws, then they are in it, but barely.

Disgusting F/T shooting and too many turnovers.

Also, Frazier doing everything to keep himself out of the starting five today. Bad D, jacking up contested threes that are off the mark.

LB needs to keep Nic in the game. I don't care how many fouls he has. And Nic needs to get his head outta his arse.

We must have KF find his range and minutes the rest of the year or we are in trouble. LB must take the gamble and keep him on the floor. It's time.

Normally I agree, but he was a giant liability in the first half. Tough to watch.

any time Frazier would like to step up would be nice-I don't see it as Larry Brown's problem. Right now he is a one-dimensional player who isn't hitting shots which is the one reason he is on the Court

KF needs to learn how to play defense. He's just lost, and doesn't know what he's supposed to do. Hard to get minutes when you don't even gave the basics down. He also hasn't proved to be a great shooter yet. We're much better with Russell on the floor right now.

Hoping we get Kennedy involved down low this half, within 6 ft of the bucket. We can get their bigs with some fouls and have a small chance.

Yanick being out, of course, is really killer. This stretch is going to be tough, need his size - gives us an advantage in AAC play especially. Averages, what, 9 points/5 rebounds and a blocked shot. Most likely he'd have 4 or so points in the first half. That, coupled, with just 1 or 2 more FTs (Ben Moore!) and we are right in it despite how many TOs we have and Nic Moore being completely out of it . . . for now . . .

too many dumb mistakes against a great team on the road. Just some real head scratchers on decision making. (shot selection, turnovers, defense)

This game reminds me so much of the SMU-Arkansas game. Played with a "deer in the headlight" look. . . Hopefully, the boys have a better comeback in them. . . Will still be at the SMU-USF game on Wednesday.

This.

Nic Moore with a 3 or two and some stops and we are in it.

And, I cringe to say this, play Shawn Williams more.
