I'm a lot more worried about the UConn game now than I was before, if we keep this kind of play up

Kemba Walker will rape our lack of perimeter defense. Well, lack of any defense, really.

As bad as we have played we are a pair of Melvin Going fts and a Tobias shot off the back rim from being in the top 10. We are not playing well at all, but everyone acting like the season is over is crazy.

Going to be a challenge to get to 20 wins this year. They will have to grow some and develop chemistry to get to 20 wins.

Just like those guards from Nova and Pitt did, huh?

No, like the guards from Belmont should have done considering they had at least 10 wide open looks from the perimeter. Our defense outside of 15 feet is atrocious.

Or like every guard has done the last 4 games. Have you been watching at all? We are getting slaughtered on the dribble penetration and kick out or drop off, just absolutely destroyed.

So then what's your explanation from those two games to these last for games in terms of perimeter defense?

Lack of focus or intensity. They're giving a half arsed effort on the defensive end right now.

Many factors for that, including the fact that it's holiday break for the university and the fact that they're obviously a lot more focused in the bigger games. I expect this team to perform at a much higher level in terms of focus and intensity when league play rolls around.

You're looking way too deep into a 2 week stretch of poor play in December. It happens.

Oh you mean our defense has been stellar in every single game other than these past 4? Nova? Good effort on D. Pitt? Good effort on D. Missouri State? Eh. The first matchup with Belmont? Well, again they shot in the 20s on 3pt %. I don't remember if that's because they were off like they were tonight or if we actually looked like we gave a damn on D..
