re: What has honestly happened to Alabama’s basketball team?

Amount of 3 point shots is not the issue. Of course, better if you make more but that's true of every facet of the game.


The offensive problem has been far too many live ball turnovers leading directly to runouts.

The real problem with this team is almost all on the defensive end. Nimari Burnett missed the season with an injury and I believe it was a surprise that Primo exploded into a first round NBA pick and left. Those were really the replacements for Petty/Jones in terms of having a lengthy athletic defenders.

That's meant at least 2 and often all 3 of Quinnerly, Davison and Shackleford have been playing together and they just can't keep opposing guards from penetrating.

If you watch the losses, runs of scoring on 9-10 possessions where oppositions guards just getting wherever they want has been the main issue.
