Defense, Rebounding, BBIQ still isn’t where I’d like to see, but they are winning, so what do I know.

If TE doesn’t go all Damian Lillard, this is likely a double-digit loss, but again, he did, so what do I know.

If Ole Miss's best player didn't act like their best player and get 20 points, this is a blowout win

I guess we can expect a career night every game from TE going forward than.

You completely missed the point ...

I didn’t.

You said if WSU could have stopped Ole Miss’ best player, Shocks win by 20 (assuming TE still goes for 29).

My point is WSU can’t rely on TE to have career nights every game in order to win.

Also, Ole Miss’ scorer was taking much easier shots than TE was having to take. WSU needs to get better on not letting shooters shoot wide open, toes on the line, shots. Relying on TE to make multiple 3s a game from logos on the court probably isn’t the strategy WSU wants to rely on a lot.

Why wouldn't we? He's pretty good. Best player on the court last night, easily; just like he was in Florida last week.

No. His point was, I think that Shuler doesn’t usually shoot like he did. Shuler averages 7-8 points less than he did last night and his 3 point shooting was above his average. Each game is different for all players and all players play above or under their usual play. TE isn’t the only player to out shoot his average. Shuler came back to himself on his final 3 of the game when he missed everything.

Stick If I’m wrong and actually missed your point, I apologize.

Ok boys I’ll break you off a piece. The OT game in FL. Shocks foul the 3 ball shooter twice and are lucky to get to OT. Last night against Miss. they have at least two possessions under 5 min. Where they shoot or turn it over without running the offense/clock because of sloppy ball control.
This team is talented, running on disciplinary fumes from the previous coach and has a b-ball IQ that is not improving.

Are you expecting WSU to be a Final Four team or something?

You can break off a piece of that kit kat bar and stick it up your ass.

Did you not watch the Tulsa game on ESPN? Tyson was 1-5 from the field and 1-2 from the charity stripe. WSU won, at their gym. Houston didn't...

There's your answer.

That's what I was trying to say. It's like Tulsa fans saying after we beat them "well if we just shoot our average on FTs, then we win", which ignores the fact that WSU shot well below their FT average too.

You can't say well ... If A was different but B,C,D,E.......Y,Z all stay the same then we would have lost ... if A changes, then likely all the other variables change too. If TE wasnt hitting last night, would you expect him to take the same number of shots that he did? No, he isn't Stevenson ... He would have set up his teammates and someone else would have had a chance to take other shots.
