We don’t have to run that offense. It’s not too much to ask a 6’9 superstar wing to seal a 6’1 guard 2 or 3 times for easy layups.

Miller did that a couple times earlier in the season and it was very effective. I don’t understand why we went away from it.


I don't think it would be super effective against a team as athletic and sound defensively as Arkansas who would help over in all likelihood with a group of athletic long guys with very active hands making it hard to make good passes out of a double with your back to the basket. Davis is also 6'4, not 6'1, and is a very good on ball defender.

I think our offensive adjustment at halftime was pretty good

It always cracks me up when I see people take shots at us for having a gimmicky offense, living and dying by the 3, running basic sets, playing playground ball, etc.



It's an incredibly lazy narrative at this point. Instant dismissal if anyone says that or the "live and die by the 3" line.

Dude stop acting like it’s impossible for Miller to score over Davis in the post. It’s not. That’s a huge mismatch. Let’s be honest here, Brandon was being extremely passive in the first half. The second he saw a point guard was guarding him, he should have taken him to the mid post and shot right over him.

This is why people have concerns about Miller. If he’s being bothered by a college point guard defending him, what’s gonna happen when LeBron, Kawhi, Herb, etc are defending him next year?

Also during the replays of the foul on Miller's three-point shot, Dykes didn't believe it should have been a foul and was trying to talk circles around why a ref might have called that despite it being an iffy call. He kept on with that as replay continued to show the clear foul, and Bilas just had to jump in and say, "He clearly hit him on the hand there." He followed that with a joke of how that eliminates the refs having to do all that guessing or whatever it was Dykes was trying to ramble about.

He could demand the ball more but it could mess up the chemistry amongst his teammates.

Our most important is probably NOAH CLOWNEY!

He gone. If he keeps shooting like that he might even go late lottery.

It's the boring answer, but I think Miller is quite easily our most important simply because of the gravity of defensive focus that he commands. Even in those points in the game where he seems to disappear, his role is vital to the rest of the team succeeding. If you are requiring their best defender to face guard you all over the floor, you are making it immensely easier for your teammates to score. Not only are you neutralizing their best defender, but 4v4 is a huge advantage for the offense over 5v5 simply because the driving lanes become less clogged with help defenders.

I will say this... Brandon Miller has a post up game and Miller showed it thru AAU ball a lot.

People want Brandon Miller to be all these other guys or live up to their expectations but what I LOVE about him is that...Miller is never sped up by anyone.

You worried about the next level when he's still in college smh.

Last time I checked Brandon cooked Devo the second half.
