Nick's shooting will hopefully come around as he gets back to full time minutes. 4/16 today total is rough.


I like that we were able to get Devo and Council some good rest. Staying fresh is going to be such a huge key for those guys that have logged 38+ a game all SEC season.

I’d think playing more games will see Nick smith shooting better. No matter how hard you practice nothing replicates game speed.

No, and to his credit. Didn’t really force a bunch of dumb shite when he did.

His defense was pretty half assed most of the game but it didn’t matter.

I see Devo started. Did he not play a lot today?

He played a lot but we didn't run the offense through him and I get the feeling Muss didn't want him shooting much today.

Am I overreacting or is it the most obvious thing ever that Graham should be a big focus of our offense going forward, if not the #1 option. His feel, touch, quickness, and length on the post is so killer. At the PF spot, there’s just not many teams who will be able to match his height, and even when they do he’s got the moves to still get a high % shot off.

Graham will be really useful if we run into a red hot mid major in the tourney. Many P5 schools will have a big that can match up with him but when he has a mismatch, he is deadly.

We need a close up gif of that Mitchell one hand jam off the rebound.

Yep. Against Miss State he was pushed around pretty easily by their bigs. Against someone with mediocre big guys, he will be good.

Why does Nick seem to want to face the crowd everytime down the court?

Yeah Graham is a monster against weaker comp, but the teama with strong, athletic big men and physicality are a problem for him down low, but he can eat your lunch with that turnaround hook/push shot love at the basket.

Florida literally had no answer for it without Castleton.

If Graham had any type of jump shot at all he'd be a lottery pick. I've liked him all year. He's very effective if we have one or both Mitchell brothers in the game to monopolize the other team's bigs.

I doubt Castleton can hang with him.

UGA is a pretty big must win with how bad they are. Absolutely cannot drop it obviously which always makes me a little nervous.

They lost to Bama 108-59, and previous 2 road games 82-57 to A&M and 94-73 to Auburn.

Yep, Tue against UGA is a good trap game spot for the Hogs. Must take care of business.

UK playing a lot better should be more worrying.

UGA sucks. But yea, I guess we never know with this team.
