Like he ordered his espresso and then saw a tip screen
Like the gas station didnāt have diesel
Not ideal to be outscored by that team over the last 31 minutes of the game⦠hmmm ⦠what happened?
Zone happened⦠got work to do ⦠vs zone.
Hereās the full box. Hallās stat line is pretty meh until you get to his +/-

Thatās just because he was in the first 8 minutes he didnāt do that muchā¦
Not making any judgements on how this season will play out. It serves no purpose, and I really donāt think teams establish a true identity before 2 weeks of conference play are in the books. But I will say, that if boosters are truly paying Top 10 NIL money for this roster, they are totally getting ripped off. This team doesnāt have Top 10 talent.
First big game is Northwestern - two weeks from today. Thatās when we will really start to know what we have.
Yeah Iām not sure this team has top 25 or 30 talent let alone top 10
Rank the guards so far and where they will be for Odom by January in the rotation:
Actual:
- White
- Mallory
- Malik
- Elijah
- Hall
For Odom:
- Malik
- Hall
- White
- Mallory
- Elijah
Agree, but I think we had to take some big swings⦠we are gonna see if they pay off.
TDR still had a nice game. Just looked totally bewildered by the zone.
Hall is better than Eli currently.
Hall might be destined to be the kind of good +/-, meh box score stats guy that inspires endless arguments. The assists are good though, especially because I donāt see this team as being deep with plus passers.
Oh yeah agreed. I am not over-indexing on this game. I just think top-10 talent means you have another guy or two that look like TDR. Like the Dukes of the world have multiple 1st round draft picks every year. That is ātop 10ā talent.
I like Jacari as a scorer, Iām not so excited about his vision/passing decision-making.
Feels like Malik played better against two P5 teams in the exhibitions than the cupcakes
Yeah if Malik could be as good as TDR (imperfect comp I know) that gets you closer to your top X talent.
Leon Bond RIP??? Heās still with us.

On the totally unequivocal bright side, WOW Grünloh is really, really good!!
Agree with @Cuts_from_The_Corner but also when have we seen their best basketball? In like 5 minute chunks.

Iām much more excited because I think we have really good individual talent. Just need it to gel
