Pretty shitty takes. We are deep and Bradley is good. Wow. And a bunch of negative shite. Stunning analysis.

Why do in-depth analysis when a short one with 2 growth areas is enough to rustle your delicate jimmies?

Up to #5 in NET.

Somehow still behind UTk despite having 2 road wins to their 0 road games played, twice as many Q1/2 wins, and a significantly better SOS.

And beating a common opponent they lost to

Clowney is gonna be 1 and done too like Miller

Miller has looked like god’s gift to basketball against our mid major opponents and average against the high major defenders. We’ve got to do a better job of scheming him open from 3 because he just doesn’t seem elite driving to the rim and being able to finish.

Good morning, hate I wasn't on the board during the game yesterday. Absolute thrilling win. Just a few notes:

- JQ and Gurley need less playing time. JQ turning the ball over and his weak defense is getting more difficult to hide. I thought the Sears/Bradley combo was way better and was also the pairing during the comeback. Gurley...no comment.

- It was great seeing the freshmen grow up during the game. Bradley had some huge drives on offense and worked his butt off on defense. He's going to continue to improve. Clowney finding his jump shot over the past week has been a pleasant sight, he was also aggressive on the boards. Griffen! Came in and played great outside of that early turnover that wasn't really his fault. I love the attitude he plays with and should get more playing time. Miller didn't hit a FG but made 8 straight free throws down the stretch and made up for his offensive woes on the other side of the court.

- I admit I thought the game was over but this team has some fight. The next two games are going to be huge but with the depth and talent of this team, both are extremely winnable which says a lot about where Oats has this program.

- Oats finally got his handshake.

It's nice to know going into a game that 1 or 2 guys don't have to be on, or points are gonna be hard to find! With this depth and talent, a bad game should be an extreme rarity.

Full-Court Press: Takeaways From Alabama Basketball at Houston (SI)

No sugarcoating it, this was one of the biggest games in Alabama basketball history.

The game was on ABC. Jay Bilas on the call. Alabama's first top-10 matchup since 2002. The second time ever that a team has beaten two No. 1-ranked teams in the same regular season.

Not to mention the huge names that were in attendance. Hakeem Olajuwan, Andre Johnson, Jalen Green, Jabari Smith.

This game was huge, it was important, and Alabama made a statement to the college basketball world.

Hurr-durr, what a big jimmy rustler you are. I just think if you are gonna criticize two of our best players after a huge win then you should have some substance to it. I think you have a shitty take about Miller being too passive when Houston's game plan was to take him away. And I disagree with you and several others who want JQ benched.

---

And I just think it's absolutely silly to get this bent out of shape over a comment about Miller needing to stay aggressive and JQ needing more time to knock the rust off. These aren't the insults you're making them out to be.
