They're a complete disaster on defense and Cooper has been pretty awful since everyone realized the only shots he can make beyond ~8 feet are FTs.

Basically this. The trick is to play in front of Cooper and force him to shoot over you. He thrives in chaos on offense and if you get up on him he can get past you and break the defense down, but play in front of him and invite him into traffic and his height and shot become real factors.

It would also help if the rest of the team wasn’t Jekyll and Hyde. We’ve had numerous guys go for 20+ with most of those points comes from the 3, but almost all of those are isolated instances. Also it seems like most have started standing around and waiting on Cooper to do his thing.

We aren’t a good team right now. Being awful at both defense and shooting makes it tougher to win

His shot is Ugly too. He will still be a lottery pick though

A lot of strange movement in his windup.. he’s almost leaning to the left when he shoots. Someday, he will get that fixed and he will be deadly in the league.

Stanford/Wazzu in 3rd OT on ESPN2 for those interested. Really Ugly game. Signs of our 4OT game vs South Carolina.


We would throttle Stanford if we played them again

Stanford in 3OT with Washington State.

Fun fact: Noah Williams on Washington State was once committed to Nate Oats at Buffalo.

Tennessee State is 326 in NET and they have a 5 point lead on Jacksonville State with less than three minutes remaining.

Ole Miss pulled a February Alabama. Do just enough to get yourself on the bubble with positive momentum and then absolutely shite the bed against a mediocre opponent on your home court.

Did you see Alabama vs Vanderbilt today?


Oklahoma was up by 8 with 5 minutes left when I asked how they were shitting the bed, didnt realise they were up by a lot more than that at halftime.
