That is a new age basketball analytic minded persons wet dream.

That shot map is gonna be on about 1,000 power point slides at coaching conventions over the next 10 years.

I hate to do this for Bama Basketball but looking at the rest of our schedule @Mizzou and @Arkansas are the only 2 games I see giving us trouble


It's Alabama basketball. fricking Vandy might beat us. I view our current win streak in terms of providing extra cushion for the incoming WTF losses to a couple of State, UGA, and Vandy.


This is my fear as well. I’ve watched too long and know the other shoe is going to drop any moment now. After shooting 60% from 3 tonight, Saturday we won’t be able to throw it in Lake Tuscaloosa

You're looking too far ahead. Basketball should be broken down to 2-4 games stretches. Don't look past the 4th game. So, next 4 vs. State, UK, LSU, Missouri is all that's to analyze for now.
I think a solid 2 -2 split would be just fine here.
And BTW, who came up with the bright idea to play 2 teams twice by the 11th conference game??

We're past that shite. We're gonna thunderfunk State on Saturday and then thunderfunk Kentucky again.

We'll get tested some more (@ Mizzou, @ Carolina), but we're too damn good and too damn locked in to the stuff were supposed to do to do the normal ole weak minded Bama team shite.

Anything less than a 2-2 split and we've taken a step back.

State and Kentucky are bad and terrible matchups against us. LSU and Missouri will be challenges, especially Missouri in Columbia. They'll get the fvck after us defensively.

That's why I dug up that Twitter gold, from a month ago when our pet's heads were falling off.

It's insane how bad we were at points in December. And then, not bad.

We may lose Saturday and we will be pissed but we need to enjoy this time bc we have the GOAT in Saban and two fine coaches in Oats and Bohannon for the 3 major sports

Crazy that Alabama just won the national championship in football last week and all people are talking about is Nate Oats and Alabama basketball. Wild.

And I will tell you another thing.... Reese is playing his arse off too. His defense has really improved and I have been critical of him in the past

There's no weak link right now. They've all found a comfort level in the system and their roles and they aren't thinking at all. Everything we do is max speed and max confidence.

And they aren't scared of anything.

Precisely what we were hoping for with Oats. It seems that things are finally clicking in unison.

Yep - and to be honest we looked like this (to a lesser extent) for about 3 weeks last year, too. But we were short-handed and then Herb and Petty got hurt and it crumbled. And we hadn't quite gotten over the mental hump of finishing games.

That hump has been obliterated. These guys have no mental roadblocks. They expect every shot to go in.

If we can replicate this kind of effort and fundamentals/scheme with even more talent - my God.
