  • RC4 was guarding Grimes, hmm. Don’t get that one.

      Freedom to make plays or Undisciplined? Freedom is IB’s strength.

      • Not upset with effort just lost our way for a bit but Houston makes a lot of teams look bad. Keep on digging we’ll be alright

        • Lots of teaching moments on this film session. Still UH left the door open with. 3+ minutes left we had 3 empty trips with the Cougs kind of on their heels but came up empty every time. Score 2 out 3 and who knows. No magic tonight.

            But we looked so much worse against a Houston team that probably wasn’t as good last year. So hard to know for sure.
            Houston handed us our worst lost in 17 years last season and you think this team, that competed all game and lost by 7, looked worse?!?

                Re read what I said. Not what I said.

                • We use our full lineup in the first half. Why not continue to use them throughout the 2nd half? Especially when AG and MU were terrible?

                  Edit...and i can add TW

                    Question: Is it freedom to make plays or selfishness?
                    Either way, much of it is stupid. He's not a good enough outside shooter to shoot as much as he does. He's much better breaking things down and getting in the paint. However, sometimes he decides that's what he's going to do and sticks with it no matter what, which leads to over dribbling and typically turnovers. He needs to play smarter and pick his spots.

                    • I feel much more hopeful about this team than I did about last seasons. The team literally gave up last year.

                      • Mo Udeze - zero points, 4 fouls, 3 rebounds. Impressive. If this team had some consistent production at the 5 spot, man what a difference that could make.

                        • Our month of January schedule is brutal. See how we are in February.

                          • I feel really pissed about how we lost. The game was ours to win if we just had more discipline, took better shots and better care of the ball. I know the difference in rebounds is pretty small, but think about how many offensive rebounds we gave up. It’s just infuriating to think about.

                            With all that said..... the more rational side of me is thinking more positively. We were never out of the game, and probably even played our best 25 minutes of basketball this year. All the talent is there, the right pieces are there. We just have to put together a full 40 minutes. We can compete with anybody, we just need to finish the job

                            • Anyone see any reason why we moved DD off Grimes in the second half? Seemed like we had a pretty good thing going there. But what do I know? I can’t be too upset with this outcome, but that game was extremely winnable. Oh well.

                                Definitely a post made in the moment. Probably true. Think 7th is insanely low though.
