The man ain't wrong.

Also agree we should rotate in Petrovic more if he's fully healthy now, possibly starting over Wagler or Mirkovic depending on opponent.

Have to be careful with Petro in rotations because he’s small and can’t guard anyone but does some nifty stuff on the offensive end. Like all the euros, needs to learn that the speed and physicality on defense isn’t what he’s used to. Has a tendency to drive it all the way to the cup and jump and hope like hell he finds a guy he can pass it to.

How many layups did we miss in this game? Reminded me of the game against them in the tourney and a game at northwestern that same year I believe where we looked sped up and just missed bunnies like it was our job.

This wasn’t a game where I felt like we were outclassed or didn’t belong. Make wide open layups like we usually do/hit wide open threes at the normal clip and we win, perhaps comfortably. We’ve got a bunch of new guys figuring out how to play together and two key players just back off injury so there’s some rotation question marks.

I didn’t love seeing Davis in there so much late but I guess that lineup was kind of working despite him not doing anything useful.

UCONN just took over one of the #1 seeds in current bracketology....this helps our loss to them. However in this projection we would be in a BRUTAL bracket imo.

Way too early to consider which bracket you’re in.

Right that's literally why they call it "The way too early bracketology"...LOL, the site is so busy, figured I would try to squeeze it in.

Our losses are to three top 15 teams. Two of those were as close as they get and one was a 7 point game late when we got fucked on a crazy ass 4 point play instead of getting the ball back to cut it to a 4-5 point game. We’ve beaten two top 15ish teams. Does help those teams that beat us and we beat keep winning.

Free Shots in November don't matter either, per you!

Not typically. And especially in 30 point blowout wins. And when freshmen bigs are doing most of the missing.

Except when they wind up being a problem the whole year, which they did.

We weren’t great from the line, but I’m pretty sure we didn’t lose any games because of it.

You did lose a 2nd half cover in the tourney, though; so pretty tragic.
