This is what pisses me off. How do you just decide to not play defense? Let me know so I won’t watch. Cultural has to change and guys need to go, including some that Miller brought to the team.

He’s right.

Coach Miller said defensive limitations last night. He’s right they have been limited all year. You can’t fix their limitations. The team was better defensively last year. However, given their numbers defensively this year, most top 100 teams would have looked better last year. Looked at some games previous games again. They are slow getting around screens. Most of the switches defensively are very slow. So some of it is laziness and some of it is they just don’t want to do it. Heide can’t guard a chair. If you watch whoever he is guarding, they either score or get fouled by him. Codie doesn’t use his peripheral vision at all. Matas struggles passing out of the post. Swain has a lot of issues defensively as well. Pope shot so much because nobody else would. Mark missed so many opportunities to score early in overtime. They just didn’t look right from the start of the game. How do you get blown out one night and do this the next game? They just have too many positions where they are limited. The players that do most of the scoring often struggle defensively which would explain being 9-9.

I will never figure that guy out.

That’s Miller trying to find a way to get that into his players heads.

A voice of reason.

It’s always a sign when somebody is bored or wants attention when they say this. It happens every year. In the last six complete season Jordan played with the Bulls it ended with championships. I have Kobe over LeBron.

Imagine what he can do with a year of scouting players and a slightly above average NIL.

Missing him badly. I am just going to assume he’s done. I will be pleasantly surprised if he plays.

He’s right both were fouls. The second one doesn’t get called most of the time.

Game could not have started worse, but the team held it together.

Outside of Heide I think we got everyone involved. This team is very unpredictable but the game plan was masterful. Swain only had eleven points. Texas still won and pulled away around the two minute mark. Codie did his best, Weaver was Weaver, Wilcher had a very orthodox three go down.

I kept telling myself Miller will not let them lose three in a row. Trouble with beating OU is that it will come after four straight losses.

Mark had a masterful game. They could have been destroyed when Swain and Matas picked up two fouls. Awesome job by Coach Miller navigating through that. Pope hit some big shots. Matas did a really good job of not fouling.

Good job getting through the half.

Heide just gave them two points.

They are in the bonus stop fouling!

Mark had to force a bad shot because nobody came to help him. He was stuck in the lane and had to take a difficult shot.

And he’s not hitting them. I have never seen somebody dribble once and stop so much. You basically have gone nowhere and now they can surround you.

Wilcher needs to let that go. It’s a difficult shot.

They’re doing a good job of playing through it. Just play and don’t worry about the referees.

All you are going to get is shooting. Guess Miller decided not to bench him. Actually going to the basket is foreign to him. Coming back to help on the press Well?

With you on that. Its ridiculous.

Point is Matas has to know not to pick up the second foul. You are a foul magnet. Don’t dive for a ball and keep your hands straight up.

It has nothing to do with him being new to the game. He’s just dumb. He has done this the entire year!
