********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD********

It looks like our bigs are always a 1/2 step slow to the ball. We need to get our aggression going in the paint. Too laid back right now.
 
Officiating feels like we're playing Duke or UNC in NC... Hope you guys realize we are getting no gimmes tonight for being a premier program, at home, against a low-major.

Yet somewhere.. Duke is probably on their 32nd free throw..
 
First half stats.

This BU team is worse than last years' and is currently missing its top 2 players. UK has been awful 2 games in a row.
This BU team can still shoot lights out . They are elite shooters. Are we playing well? NO but we lost 87% of our O so we will look horrible at times which is fine it is freaking November . Put down the knife LOL

The great thing about Murray is he can dribble into traffic and he never gives up his dribble.

Yeah but not worried about that much as Ulis , Murray , Willis and even Poy are really between 38%-45% shooters and Mulder is he ever played would shoot them as well and make most . Just gotta off to a slow start and Murray's 1-9 game didn't help . Still that is a strength of this team IMO and I like being zoned unlike years past . I don't like Briscoe shooting more then 1 a game and same goes for Matthews .


We do not have ANY 45% 3 point shooters on this team.
 
Murray has got to stop bounce passing to Skal's knees. He has done it twice this game and Skal lost the ball both times. You can't hit a tall guy in the knees with a pass.
 
I dont think BU is getting enough credit on this board.

I feel sometimes people just look at names and if they aren't from a power conference they are dismissed as bad.

We'll win this game by about 20 which is what we should beat a team like this by

They lost by 15 to a team we beat by 30....they are not good
 
Maybe I don't fully understand this freedom of movement rule,but I see the Cats ball handlers getting body bumped on drives with no call every set
 
Some potential problem areas that are going to be hard to overcome. We are not a good FT shooting team, not a good 3 pt shooting team, and Skal is foul-prone. Skal might be able to improve on the foul problem, but I don't see us getting significantly better at the line, or the 3 pt line. Another one is Murray turning the ball over too much. That's something Knight did too early in the season and got much better at
 
I wish Briscoe would drive the basket every time he touches the ball. He is the best finisher we've had in a long, long time.
