Tough games for Chism

It seems to me that Wayne is not playing his best, as of late. Bad passes, slow hands, continuing to jack ill-advised three-balls, silly fouls. . . .I hope he comes around, and quick. We really need his inside presence.

He needs to learn to hold on to the freaking ball when he has it. He doesn't even pay attention until a guy rips the ball away and runs down the court. At least that was the case against Georgetown and Gonzaga.

He's getting his stroke back. 1-2 tonight. Hit a big one against GT. His play under the basket is soft though.

He's been nothing short of awful the last couple of games.

It seemed like the more experienced guys forced plays tonight and the younger played within their roles. JMO

I can always count on you to call it like it is.

I'd like to see Wayne forcing the ball into the bucket from two feet a little more often.

obviously you all watch more UT bball than me, but for the life of me, I don't know why Chism even bothers standing outside the 3 point line. He's so good down low, yet I always see him jacking 3s he has no business shooting.

That's one part of our game that I don't understand, either. He's a low-percentage shooter from the arc, and it takes him out of the rebound battle. If I had my wish, he'd be given a "red light" by Pearl.

I don't know why people are all over his back for shooting 3's. In all honesty, he's a fairly decent three point shooter. He shouldn't get a complete green light to shoot, but when he's open, i'd like to see him shoot. He's a big man with a shot.

Big Wayne will be back.

"so good" is way strong for his post game.

he does things he shouldn't be able to do down there. He has great hands and is very mobile. Again, I don't really watch UT bball unless it's a marquee game, but when I do, that's what I notice. He might go 4 for 7 behind the arc against South Carolina or Middle Tennessee State, but when I see a big game, I see 3-4 very stupid, out of position plays by him every game.

I often wonder the same thing. He has such good touch down around the basket. Just doesn't seem worth it if he's only going to make at most three out of ten threes.

Softness and stupidity plague his post game most nights. He could be solid and is some nights, but makes M Wingate look smart.
