Another moral victory. Great.

Hopefully a top 4 seed in the NIT.

Any team worth its salt would handle this team with no problem. Just save us the embarrassment of the tourney. Acceptance is the first step.

No moral victory. It's a loss. Poor free-throw shooting and poor 3-point D again.

Speaking of acceptance, have you accepted that you're a loser yet?

What’s hard to understand?


Know how I know you didn’t play basketball? Because you don’t realize you don’t have to be talented to be able to defend. We’re athletic enough to be able to guard and defend. We’re giving up way too many easy baskets and that has nothing to do with our level of talent. Even if you can’t figure this out, Wade should be able to.

USCe is probably our best shot but they’re playing much better ball now too.

We rarely seem to play well in Gainesville.

Arkansas will have the desperation factor as well.

Wouldn’t shock me if we won all 3 or lost all 3. The Vandy and Mizzou games are VERY concerning.

This team just isnt smart at all. The basketball IQ of the team is on the spectrum. Mays literally ran alongside Quickley and didn't foul him for 9 seconds after the missed foul on Richards. Smart passes the ball when he has a wide open three with 6 seconds left. Theyve also missed big time free throws in the second half of games that really cost them. Lost the Auburn game because Smart missed a free throw late, and Williams missed a free throw late. Could've tied Bama with about 2 minutes left but missed the front end of a 1 and 1. Missed 5 out of 10 during the middle portion of this second half against Kentucky and ended up losing by 3. Honestly the team is falling apart because they can't stop anyone on defense which puts pressure on one of the best offenses in the country. The offense turns the ball over 1 out of 5 possessions and misses 1 out of 2 free throws in the second half when they need to make them. They also miss every second half three point attempt they take until they're down 15 and absolutely have to make them to make a run with less than 3 minutes left.

You’re a fricking moron. If you think it doesn’t matter that your asking 3s to guard 2s or 4s to guard 3s I don’t know what to tell you. Go ask Anthony Davis to guard James Harden.

In fact, Wade said as much after the Auburn game AP redneck

Hey fanboy. We gave them wide open looks all night. Just as we did in our other conference losses. It’s a lot easier to score when you’re taking uncontested shots, and this happens every game. Wade pocketed his timeouts for most of the second half and made no changes. It’s no coincidence that this keeps happening. He needs to do a better job of coaching and we need to do a better job with shot selection and defending. You’re “talent level” excuses are bullshite and pussified. And you’re a fricking idiot using the analogy of AD guarding Harden. Maybe you should back off and let the adults talk.

You have know idea what you’re talking about redneck. They got wide open looks because we’re playing guys out of position that are too slow to stay with the man in front of them. Hagans blew by Watford a handful of times. He shouldn’t be asked to guard him. So it’s either fact or you’re saying will wade is wrong. Which is it? It takes more than just effort to defend

I agree with your point about bball IQ, but Skylar ain't your target here at all... dude is the smartest on the court most nights, yeah I was curious about the no foul, but everyone has mental lapses now and then

id be willing to bet UK gets just as many open 3s in other games, but they typically miss. it's a lot luck based
I mean I guess every shot is a little bit of luck as to if they make or miss it but when every team lights up the three point line it stops being luck and more about piss poor defense
