It just might be a little silly to call out the one bad game


Look, there are lots of positives to this game. Days and Thomas primarily and then Manning/Leblanc off the bench hustling and playing good defense. Just because we won by 20+ it doesn't mean that we shouldn't find fault in certain areas.

Don't you think that Will Wade will use this game to be a teaching lesson for Watford and Smart? When teams play like A&M tonight, they have to realize their place. They can't force the offense just because they want to be involved. If we wouldn't have tried to play 1 on 1 at times and moved the ball, the motion in the offense would have opened up opportunities for them.

My point is, this team was bailed out tonight by how good Thomas is. Watford and Smart better figure out how to be more efficient in this type of game when Thomas can't go for 30, or they're not helping their draft stock or this team get anywhere in March.

Coach seemed pleased with their play. Every player on this team can score. All players will not be hitting their shots every night.
He mentioned that Gaines, who has not shown a lot of offense in games, has been very good in practice.

It’s not like Thomas’s performance was such a huge outlier. He’s good for 20 pts. Smart and Watford’s performances were big time outliers in the other hand and are way more than capable of making up the 10 extra points we got from Thomas tonight.

Well you’re quickly giving the impression that no one will listen to you the rest of basketball season.

Just like the “fans” who were terrified about the team after we barely beat Nicholls
