nothing more frustrating than struggling to get a stream to work for a while, get it to work finally, but just in time to see michigan go ice cold.

they need to get something going. i think this game a moral victory might actually mean something.

I feel like the big issue is just that our players make slow decisions. Was particularly evident against EMU. They would pass the ball then hold it for 5 seconds, and then pass again. You aren't gonna put any pressure on the defense when you let the defense set themselves up after a pass.

the two big lineup helped the defense i think. and it didn't really change our offense from being terrible. so maybe try that a little more in the second half? walton, levert, irvin, donnal, and doyle?

i figured we needed to shoot 45% from 3 and create twice as many TOs as AZ.

So far 30% from 3 and we have 5 TOs to their 6.

Lucky to be down only 11.  Pack the paint and force them to shoot 3s...and pray.

Beiliens a great coach but we can't have lineups and here Caris and Zak are guarding post type players. This team has enough guard/wing players he needs to start exclusively recruiting big men.

the beginning of the season is going a little more poorly than I was expecting, but I'm still excited to see what this team will look like at the end of the year. 

That being said, I have no clue how this team came back from double digits to take the lead against Nova.
