He’s got to be less selfish
but that’s not who he is. The reason he can get hot and go for 30 is the same reason he’s not a starter. Because when he’s on the floor and has the ball he’s thinking about shooting it. There’s not a shot he doesn’t like and he always wants the pressure on him. You noticed towards the end last night when he had the ball he wasn’t passing it to nobody he was gonna wait until mclung fouled him and he was gonna be the one to shoot the free throws to ice it. He trusts himself over anyone else on the court. Reminds me a lot of Westbrook.

Notae is always good for energy and a spark. He's also almost always good for a couple possessions where he just shoots the ball immediately and misses.


To his credit he has cut down on boneheaded plays significantly as the season progressed



Agree. He's a necessary evil and his defense has gotten significantly better as well. He makes some big, big plays.

Just need his shot to fall a little more and we're going to be really, really tough. Same goes for Tate and Moody too.

We still haven't had a great game shooting.

Do yourselves a favor and go watch the last two minutes of the Tech game. Devo wouldn’t let McClung get a touch. Truly incredible defense from him, he’s amazing to watch.

Did that this morning when I woke up. That last possession, Devo had a hand on his hip the entire time. Kid was locked down on him.

Devo is an absolute defensive assassin in end of game situations. This isn't the first time he has done it. It's really amazing to watch.

I believe there were 2 games in a row during the winning streak where Devo had 2 steals in the last 2 minutes. When he's locked in he may be the best Razorback defender I've ever seen, and we've had some great ones.

He's so fast and plays with such good defensive positioning. Its difficult to do much with that combination.

He also seems to have as knack for slipping screens.

Some off-season training to work on offense will do him wonders. He just needs to maintain that speed.

Back to back threes from WSU, 64-62 WSU with 27 seconds.

Wild horrible shot from Ramirez and an Ark foul with 10 seconds left down 2.

Ladybacks eliminated in the first round, and first upset of the women's NCAAT. 66-62 Wright State final, their first ever NCAAT win.

fricking Neighbors.

Glad they got bounced.

Awful team that refused to play together against anyone not top ranked.

He got upset in the first round as a 6 seed his first tournament with Washington and followed it up with a Final Four the next year.

Hopefully that is the trend.

Yeah, it's interesting because Washington fans will consistently tell you Neighbor's isn't a good game day coach at all and that Kelsey Plum made him.

Starting to understand it more now as we continually see it.

I tuned in for the last couple of minutes and...man...those were some awful possessions to end the game.

Yeah having the #1 overall pick and national POTY come back as a senior was huge for that Washington team to make that run. He hit on Plum and it made his career.

His coaching leaves a lot to be desired.

Yeah, all year like that really. It's why we couldn't beat any of the top SEC teams, we'd shite ourselves late with horrible possessions.

tbh, every shot Wright St. threw up in the 1st half went in. I'd chill before I call for Neighbors head.

We scored 30 points not from the FT in 35 minutes against Wright State. I think our mediocre coach deserves it.
