Mississippi St just showed up. We’ve got a game

I really hate that cause its tied now Taine is going to get 0 minutes. I would straight up take a loss if it meant a future piece to next year’s team got 10-15 minutes in this game to get some more on court experience.

Yeah half of it is apathy/he’s sleep walking a little. Half of it is height which he doesn’t have control over.

By my count, the teams have combined for 3 outside FGs.

Gardner’s 2 to open the scoring, Franklin’s 3, and the long 2 a minute ago by that Iberian guy.

That’s it. Iverson.

Horrid start. Jayden and KC need to get in this game. No idea why CTB wants to ride Kadin so long. Clearly. Any defend these guys. Waits til we’ve lost the lead to make the change.

To add they came out with some fire while we looked like the game was on cruise control

That’s sorta been Tony’s MO this year and arguably in general

Yeah, having Armaan lob threes is definitely the way to go.

Armaan shooting is more or less a turnover

more, unfortunately

Tony’s “let them play” philosophy is a better match with more possessions. And his pace (fewer possessions) is a better match with more TOs, quicker trigger.

Which is why it was slow torture watching Laster slip all those Salt screens.

Painful

That philosophy, basically giving up 2-3 buckets due to a bad match up, is a bad strategy for this group. Oddly we’ve seen it play out many times this year.

CTB grasping

What do we think Taine and Igor are doing on the bench? Looking at flights to St Marys and Poland? Trying to airbrush out the UVA logo out of instagrams?

Edit: well this was poorly timed
