Key has just been a mess lately.

I thought Ingram had a nice first half. But then he channeled Giddens with the four quick fouls and then wasn’t ready when he got back out there.

I personally don’t think he’s really regressed this year - he just hasn’t really improved (I have not done a serious statistical breakdown of his year compared to last year so I could be wrong)

Regressed isn’t a strong enough word for Key. Fallen off a cliff.

24 for them set a moving screen or forearm shiver on the screen every trip. They never called it and he still fouled out.


I was screaming on one of them. He basically moved Sexton out of the entire play.

And some of the stuff he does defensively is inexcusably stupid and/or lazy.


I just can't figure out if he's thinking too much and has zero confidence or he's just lazy. I'm assuming the former.

Either way, he can't play significant minutes.

We can play with them but have to defend them with 100% effort. Gutty win tonight, proud of these kids...They beat a damn good team and a very good coach. If Petty keeps his confidence going we can do damage. Collin is growing as a distributor , really got everyone involved tonight.

Alabama with a huge win over Virginia Tech. Avery Johnson a master at taking away what the opposition does best. Coming into the NCAA tournament the Hokies were averaging 20.2 transition points per game, best in the ACC. Alabama's defense held them to 6 transition points. Avery Johnson has done a remarkable job building his program.

All I saw was that they can't rebound and allow almost 50% FG from inside the arc. We should destroy

We can't give up open looks, but part of it will just be getting lucky that they have an off night shooting. They shoot so many that it would give us a shite if we played well.

Either way, just excited we have the chance.

Sexton played one of his worst games and still had 25 pts.

Ingram does a lot of underrated good things
Thats why he has to play, even with those dumb decisions. He defends well and rebounds, something the guards guys like Petty sure as hell dont do. But, geeze, we have so many unforced turnovers.

Also, worth pointing out that Avery JR gave us solid minutes tonight

This game is essentially:

Juniors vs Freshmen.

He dropped some straight up fbombs during the losing streak! Didn't even bother to change the letters
