Thank god Laphonso Ellis is calling the Xavier game!

Ox off to a great start -3 TO's and a foul.

Vander Boo.

Why do we give teams confidence to start the game?

And we're pretty pedestrian on the offensive end, not much active movement to attack the zone.

Gah, I hate zones.

Looks like Vanderbilt DG.

I like Ellis actually. The woman announcer, ack.

Another terrible start. Hopefully it doesn't take 20 minutes to come alive. Crowder playing abysmal defense.

Had a transition opportunity and took ourselves out of it, then missing after 5 chances. Not an inspiring job.

Hopefully we'll get 1/2 a game from the team today. Still early. How will Buzz adjust?

mileskishnish72 · « **Reply #7 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:19:26 PM »

Pretty ugly so far. Need a turkey.

So much for putting in a full 40. Crowd sounds lifeless.

PGsHeroes32 · « **Reply #9 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:21:27 PM »

We really suck

CTWarrior · « **Reply #10 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:21:48 PM »

I'm starting to think any team that can play good defense will give us trouble, because no team is so bad that they can't make a good percentage of the easy shots we give them.

ErickJD08 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:23:02 PM »

Blue is never going to learn. Makes the same stupid ass high risk passes in traffic.

77ncaachamps · « **Reply #12 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:23:24 PM »

why do I get this feeling that Ashton Gibbs is going to have a career game?

GGGG · « **Reply #13 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:23:50 PM »

When we are patient against the zone, we have been fine. When we make two passes and take an NBA three, we aren't going to do well.

How about MU's defense?

Double team again, leaving guys wide open for 3's.

Oh, they have 10 points in ten minutes. Gibbs almost outscoring MU.

Wilson Is stepping up. Nice to see.

That is my point. Everybody is going to score against us because of the easy shots we allow, so if they play good D we are in trouble.

Liking that Jamil Wilson is taking his open looks. Fortunate we're only down 6 right now. Zero FT attempts so far. Settling too often.

Jackson_Downer · « **Reply #18 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:26:19 PM »

Wilson for three? Ok. Don't keep going to that well. We simply need to take better care of the ball. Very sloppy.

tower912 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:27:22 PM »

Mayo, Blue, and DG all are playing poorly.

GGGG · « **Reply #20 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:27:42 PM »

Jamil is the only Warrior without a turnover so far.

mileskishnish72 · « **Reply #21 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:29:05 PM »

This team is too talented to have as many bad spells as they do.
Psych problems?

CTWarrior · « **Reply #22 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:29:16 PM »

I think we've settled down a bit. Playing better D, getting some stops. Need a few shots to drop.

tower912 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 14, 2012, 01:30:06 PM »

You want to get the ball at the foul line against the zone. When you get there, just shoot it. Stop trying to force the ball into the low post

Agreed, drive a little, get some fouls.
