re: tOfficial Alabama Basketball Season Thread | 19-15 (10-8) | #BuckleUp

I knew several people excited about it at first but idk now that the team is .500

Thanks. It makes me so sad that we are now playing slower than ever and incredibly inefficient as well. Kinda impressive, really.

There's no reason we shouldn't be pushing the tempo, but we run too many set plays and we don't have a prominent scorer.

We are also little to no threat to score inside so that limits our options on offense and makes it tougher to find a good shot.

I'd be interested to see what Avery's reaction to those stats would be. He'd probably have a lot different explanation, but that's my .02.

From everything he's said before the season, I don't think it was his plan to be 300th in tempo.

I don't think we have the athletes to play up tempo. Who else besides Ingram can haul arse and out run people? Hall is better than what we've had but I'm still not sure how he compares to other SEC bigs.

I don't know that they'll all show up, but it looks like it's damn near sold out right now. There's just a few single tickets available in the upper deck.

That's good. I'm really hoping for a good game today. This could end up being at least a decent win on our resume.

It's like #buckling up for a ride on the back of a tortoise.

Should be a great game, SEC needs you to pull this off brochachos

Really hope we don't lose.

Last year, even though we lost 15 games, it was really fun to watch that team bc we had a chance at upsetting almost any team we played. This year it hasn't been fun so far. I'm really hoping that changes and we start winning starting tonight.

If we lose tonight, there's no hope. If we win, and beat Stetson, we'll be 7-5 heading into SEC play and I'll still have a small bit of hope we can have a semi successful season.
