Shockers vs. Alabama Game thread

We need a good 2nd half from Cotton. Out of the few times I've even noticed him on the court he hasn't looked good. Stats aren't doing him any favors either: 0 pts, 2 fouls, 1 reb, 1 TO

[Aargh]

After Carter went to the bench with 2 fouls, WSU shot 2/13 from the field. Too easy to defend with no post offensive threat.

They are overplaying the ball like crazy. Somebody show that you know how to dribble drive please.

Does anybody think we lack the cohesiveness of last year. it just looks a bit janky out there. not to say we aren't good but its not as flow-y as last year. we can grind it out though

We definitely lack the cohesiveness of last year, but it comes down to baker, cotton and fred having to progress enough for the team to replace the depth and talent that was lost with last year's crowded frontcourt. Tough task. Fortunately, time is on our side before March.

3 of 7 from FT line... pathetic...

3 of 8

[another shocker]

We may see some Corey the 2nd half if we can hide him on defense.

no way. he would be major intimated (freshman) against that defense.

but either way, vitale is going on mute. EVERY time he calls a wichita state game, they lose.

lmao at the booing after the sound-o-meter came on

[Rosewood]

Free throw misses like this are just exhausting me

[jocoshock]

Need our NIT team...

[Play Angry]

Alabama with just 2 turnovers. For the game.

[ShockerPrez]

Im effing sick of the bricks from the line.

Carter and Kelly are the only two that have been to the stripe.

I am sure Mr. Baker will tire of these tiresome TideRollers. So far, it's like he's bored and doesn't feel that AU deserves his full attention. When he does we will win by 10.

Early totally disrupted opponents last year. That let the guards work with less pressure. That makes the offensive flow look a lot better than when there are only 2 guys the opponent seems to need to guard tonight.

Go right at Taylor and make them pay for leaving him in. Get that 4th.
