The difference between the quality of Baylor and the quality of Duke was obvious. Thought UI played well last night, except for the turnovers and Kofi. That said, as I mentioned last year Curbelo is going to be the truth. I think he'll be the most impactful player for UI since Deron by the time he leaves.
Ayo wasn't spectacular but was consistent. Damonte with a great game, a three and d guy now which is exactly what this team needs. Trent's handle has disappeared. That's a bit concerning.
They have to figure out a way to defend the pick and roll better. Baylor buried them on it. They played it a little firmer tonight but it was still very meh. Kofi just doesn't have the foot speed for it. I think they should go a few possessions zone here and there to change up the other team's rhythm.
Speaking of Kofi, these last few games have shown why he's a marginal (at best) NBA prospect. Can't defend P&R or perimeter switches, and he's got no quick twitch ability. Always has to gather himself. And he not even attacking the bucket with consistency anymore. Hopefully he gets back to it.
Miler is an assassin with other aspects to his game. Doesn't seem like a freshman out there, already decent on defense and doesn't make too many youthful mistakes.
