You know, some of these players just don't seem to get it, or maybe JUST ONE doesn't get it...KC Ross Miller


If it's not KC throwing the game away, it is Granger and vice-versa. I'm pretty frustrated with those two right now.

Kenneth gonna Kenneth. Threw a lazy pass up 8 that Randolph took and dunked to get the crowd back in it. Then didn't block out Cooper on Bama's last possession. There were many more but those 2 stand out.

Yeah I liked the call. He was fast enough to get by his man and we had our shooters on the wings. Either they stay covered and he has a free layup, or they help and a shooter is open.


I will concede to those of you who know better.

It was a good play call. We just didn't execute. KT's man was coming to help and he would gotten a clean look at the 3 on the handoff if Tahj had handled it properly.


I don't mind giving Tahj the ball and hte idea, just the rest of it. Give a ball screen prepass from KT and pass it to Tahj after, if they play Tahj you pass to KT.

THen you have Bowers down low if they play Tahj's drive.

Yep, no problem with that play, IMO. Gave him two options there.

Maybe it was execution in my view but passing to Tahj then setting the screen wasted a full second. That killed me. Also not having Bowers down low as a scoring option was annoying. Effectively allowed them to have a post player in the paint looking for the drive

Possibly, it's tough to say though with him losing the ball. That was so damn frustrating. I can take a loss, but choking it away sucks.

If we use a screener for KT they just switch and he doesn't have enough time to clear for a good look. I would have liked for us to inbound it closer to the basket to give us a few more options but we didn't have any timeouts to be overly aggressive on the inbounds pass.

I agree the inbounds could have probably been better. It was like they said "Here... outrun him."

I don't disagree with getting a guy with speed running like that, just the execution. We need to have set plays we practice in those situations. Happens enough to do that

Yeah, I think that was the plan and for the defense to crash opening up KT for the win.

Granger's been playing damn good defense lately.

And I haven't seen him making stupid turnovers.

Granger has steadily improved. Look through my post history and you'll see me shite on him. He doesn't blow games by any means anymore

I believe it was against Missouri late in the game that granger threw two bad passes, one was a turnover while trying to inbound the ball with less than a minute left.

I have a question for y'all, how do y'all feel about Cin's showboating antics on the court early in the second half. The turd fans seemed to wake up once bowers started flexing, shushing the crowd, and throwing around that white kid like a rag doll. I personally enjoyed it but that may just be me.

Don't forget he had the most boneheaded shot of the night...an airball 'layup' on a possession when we really needed to score. This maybe 2 possessions after Randolph's momentum-swinging dunk.

I would like it if it seemed to make him noticeably better, as in, it gave him confidence. However, he was still missing tight shots and layups all the way to the end of the game.

There was a moment early in the 2nd half when it looked like we were gonna roll...up by 9, Cim and KT were humming. If he kept that up, we would've won.

Didn't bother me. I thought they woke up after KCRM threw that lazy pass that they went down and dunked.

They got energized when Bamas player got thrown out. It was consecutive turnovers and retarded plays by AU that got them really going.

Bowers if anything was one of the better ones of keeping them quiet till that Levi Randolph and 1 play
