Pistol Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I'll just never get over that the guy we're most familiar with continues to perplex us in every way. We can't guard him one-on-one, we give him unlimited room off screens, there's no help defense, we never force him to his weak hand, we never find ways to frustrate him. Why? We have more game footage of this guy than anyone else in the league. Guard him.

Well, Crutcher going unconscious at the end hurt too. Agree What happened to our inside out game. Certainly weren’t looking for him . majerus mojo likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3star_recruit Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 About what I expected. Not the offense or the team defense we saw before the break. Got outrebounded. Our sluggish start allowed Dayton to control the game. As expected, Crutcher took over late and put the game away. Hope the guys can get off to a better start on Friday. Richmond will try to turn that game into a half court execution contest as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NH Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I also think we’ll be fine. We didn’t look that bad, Dayton slowed the game down and hit some really tough shots. I had some qualms with our substitutions but I also don’t have the benefit of knowing who was back in playing shape following cardio. The one complaint I do have is that every time we are playing poorly, our instinct seems to be to put in Thatch and go inside to French/Linssen. I think that hurts us offensively and makes it difficult to come back in games. majerus mojo, slufan13 and Fan Guy like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree Pistol...I still never forget how we lost at home last year by letting crutcher get the ball on the inbounds...never should have happened..and to make it worse jacobs let him catch the ball while he was moving toward his basket...double team him and let someone us beat us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have more game footage of this guy than anyone else in the league. Guard him. It has to be on Ford. We have seen on multiple occasions now his inability to adjust in-game. I have been so pro-Ford, and for good reason... he has certainly saved the program from where Crews had it headed. But in the Minnesota game, and now tonight, I am finally starting to see some merit in the UMass and OK State fans’ assessment of him not being able to coach in-game. We are better than both of those teams... the Minnesota loss I can live with... they’ve beat good teams at their place. But tonight is inexcusable mrjoelabs likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Bird Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 too much hero ball. At least 8 possessions where we didn't make a single pass. Ford waited way too long to apply pressure. Almost no inside out game. Very frustrating to watch. willie and CBFan like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACC and SEC arenas have 50% capacity , since when was SLU so liberal , is this not missouri . Shameful . Also bc of chaifetz awseome acoustics if we even had 20% capacity wouldve def helped . If ppl want to risk .0000000001 chance of dying from kung flu to see bills play . Who has the right to say they can't ????

Like what do we have to lose I know its meaningless but I would have had Hargrove over Thatch at the end. Thatch had a great stretch in the first half but he struggled in the 2nd half. Unrelated but I was curious how he would respond to covid given his health situation last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or why guys consistently went under when they didn’t switch. Pick someone to guard him and fight through the screens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wgstl Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 I figured crutcher would kill us, just didn’t think it would be enough. we killed ourselves with the shot selection and early TO. I worried far more about Friday then I did today, now I’m really worried. 2. Losses against nets of these two is damn near Catastrophic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodwin, French, Perkins and Collins all played over 30 min. Another thing I didn't understand, needing three's in the last 90 seconds, why are French and Collins on the floor instead of Jacobs and Hargrove?
