Our problem on defense is that there is always a mismatch somewhere.  Teams do not score a lot on us off of assists.  They get the mismatch and go 1 on 1.

Put long athletic guys on the two guards and make them drive. They'll force things and turn it over. Have either of them ever drove and then backed out when nothing was there? Can't recall a time.

Plenty of chances to kick out to an open shooter for both Rowsey and Howard and instead chuck up a shot over the help defender

Fricken weddings.  Our ride to my brother in law's wedding will be here in 10 minutes.  Figures he and his bride didn't check the MU schedule when planning the wedding since he's a Badger.  The fact that we are in Key West and it's 75 rather than the snow and cold at home makes up for it a little

Howard still chucking and forcing up crap.  Would like to see him try to create for others for once, don't recall him doing that for multiple games now.

Sam throwing alley-oooooops in fast breaks to Harry....

It’s on Wojo for recruiting an incomplete team. Not sure what you think they can do with it. It’s the same thing every game.

Agreed.  If you want to fault Wojo, fault his recruiting.  Specifically in having a complete team.  His coaching has been fine, we just have too many lineup flaws that are easy to exploit.

Providence clearly came in w a game plan for Markus. They learned from the last game, put in a plan, and are executing it. That's solid coaching. We do the same damn thing (on both ends) every f*cking game. I don't know exactly what I'd do, but I'm also not getting paid in excess of a million dollars to figure that out.

No it wasn't.  Sacar clearly didn't know what he was supposed to do, it got broken in the beginning.

My guess is that Howard then knew with the double that Theo was in position.  Put it up to the rim, hope he finishes.  Really ugly, but Sacar needs to know what he was supposed to do...once something went wrong.  It got worse and worse.

This, I gotta disagree with.  Though wait 'til next year type comments are relatively common here, I don't remember them much last year.  I don't think most expected that a team losing JJJ, Reinhardt and Fischer and replacing them with under the radar recruits was going to be better.  Plus we lost Duane Wilson (who we really need) and Cheatham (who we miss not so much).

I think we have some good pieces for next year. The three freshmen look promising along with Sam, Markus and Morrow. The missing piece is a point guard. If Wojo does not land one we will be struggling again.

Sultan,

I told several on here in PM under 500 this year. At least thought they would competitive at home. My expectations were low and they have not been met to this point. I would be happy if we could say they are a well coached team. IMO, that would be a lie.

I agree that next year's team is in near desperate need of a point guard.

I probably let some of the early wins  (including UW) give me false hope that they could finish over .500 In league and make the tournament.  The fact is that they are young, small and terrible defenders.

Howard is the PG next year. Bringing in a Frosh would be a disaster and another lost season. With Morrow and Joey Hauser, they will be able to defend and still score baskets. A few extra games in a post season tournament will help for 2018-19.
