I don't think I have ever seen a worse team at finishing around the rim than this one.

I’ve just come to grips with the fact that Oats is encouraging Shack to take it to the basket in transition no matter what sort of numbers we have. He’s certainly not actively discouraging it.

I mean are our guys putting in the extra work shooting? Are they putting up Shots on their own time?

Like at some point there isn't any sort of deep analytical thing to fix.

We have to make open shots. That's it. That's all there is to it.

A lot of these are not especially good shots around the rim. It’s not surprising that we’re missing them.

A good sign is we are holding our own rebounding unlike last time we played them


And Reese just gave up an Offensive Rebound and Fouled

Come on, George - sure they do. We are a ~35% 3P shooting team for the season not the ~20% 3P team we've been for the last two games. As long as we run the offense and take good shots that come from it, we will make closer to the 35% we need to make imho.

shite, that was the daily double. Herb with a terrible shot around the rim that never had a chance of going in and then Reese misses a relative bunny.

We can't make a layup... yet they can get a hard putback and get the foul for free throw.

missing so many close 2's means we might as well just make every shot a 3

I mean theoretically sure. But at this point we have 4 games left maybe.

There is no guarantee it comes back over that stretch.

You don't win basketball games shooting like that and we've done it for weeks now.

We just seem to be playing a little uptight on offense, like we're trying to win this game and therefore win the SEC on one shot every trip down the floor

Defense seems better tonight though
