Great learning chance for this team. They let emotions get to high & lost composure. Colorado stuck with it the whole game. We are still a year away but this is a better team than we have had in past. If someone could get hot here late we could pull this thing bout but I don't think we have anyone that can slow King down

Different guys. These guys were pretty good in first half and now it is an animal planet special in the second

The game ended when injured Tahj started controlling the ball over Canty. They ramped up the defense on Canty, so we just go with a 2-PG offense? Where are our fricking shooters? Tahj threw up a dumbass 3 when we had got the game to 9.

We simply don't match up well with Colorado. Add in the officiating swing in the 2nd half and there's no answer from us

Take a step back and I'd say this is a pretty big improvement. We're still a recruiting class away but we'll win our fair share this year

Lang is a terrible on ball defender. He doesn't have the athletisicm to stay in front of gyards. His length helps him mask it.

He hasn't developed into a scorere. I doubt he ever will. Just doesn't have the mindset.

He can come off the bench and spot up for a 3 every now and then but New Williams Bryce Brown and Dunans have all surpassed him.

The technical foul really messed with out mentality. We can't let that happen in any further games. There's no way Horace meant to slam the ball like that.

Nope they completely changed the way they called this game. Guys couldn't readjust to their changes.

He is coming off a knee ligament sprain and has a fricking brace on. Don't be a moron

Canty and Harris have to stay out of foul trouble and can't get tired if we want to win these 50/50 games.

No... Lang is not a good defender. Someone said it on this board one time and people ran with it. He isn't athletic enough to stay with the guards he'll match up with.

Do you always latch onto a player and criticize them until there's nothing left? It's not Lang's fault today.

He wasnt an athelete before the knee sprain He's a spot up shooter. Nothing wrong with that.

Maybe so, but outside of Tahkj and (occasionally) Canty, our perimeter defense has been ridiculous as a whole. Guys break us down off the dribble whenever they want.

Colorado shot 57 freakin' percent.
