Alright, now hopefully some people will stop watching and we will have a normal second half.

We need to figure out who it is and drop him down a well until April.

I don't get the Texas offense here. Admittedly I didn't see a bunch of the Beard games earlier this year, but has the offensive style just completely changed. Is it shittier defense and fewer opportunities? 

Whatever it is, this ain't good basketball.

We're slower to adjust to pretty much anything on both ends now, the competition is generally better, and Hunter has fallen off a cliff and hit every rock on the way down. 

There also seem to be more boneheaded player decisions, and the team in general just seems like it's playing with less energy. Players can definitely have great nights, but we're relying on individual skill rather than more cohesive team play.

Terry has to start playing Rice more. 

8 minutes on the bench in the first half isn't it. He might be our 2nd best player right now. Rice should be playing 30+ minutes a game.

 At the end of the day Terry isn't going to come out there and play defense and execute on O for you. 

But legitimately, what is the offense they should be executing? I see pass up top, swing it around and shoot with 3 seconds left. It's Shaka-esque.

At one point all 5 horns were on one side of the floor. No spacing, no movement, no inside-out, no screens. Nothing. That's coaching.

And no timeouts to rip them if they aren't doing what they're coached to do.

Lack of aggression from the guards. Hunter, Carr and Morris need to start attacking the rim.

Tyrese has left close to 10 points on the floor. Including the very first play of the game. 

Sure the scheme and direction isn't good but that doesn't excuse sloppy turnovers or not making an obvious basketball play. 

Like I said - these guys aren't 15. They know how to play basketball. Figure it the fuck out.

And if they truly are incapable of figuring it out then fuck it - just call it a season.

Texas lost discipline play.  

Hunter needs to do something. 0 points. If he gives us 4 to 6 points in the first half this is close to even. 

He's giving us nothing right now. 

Omfg Tyrese is fucking unplayable. 

Thank God for Timmy.

Can we at least hit the fucking rim on our 3s? The third air ball, at least.

No he's not.

This is stupid. We are going to lose to the worst Tech squad in years 

It’s going to be a rough second half of the season.

Edited by Ghost of Shag

We don't play with the same defensive intensity, fundamentals and attention to detail.  This tells me Terry doesn't hold players accountable on that end.  Rice needs to get much more playing time, Beard made sure he was one of our key offensive cogs.  The only thing holding this team together is experience.  It sure as shit ain't coaching.

Ok so don’t play carr or hunter. Or Morris.

Yeah, totally.

Nice little run -- 5 quick points from Carr and took a charge.

Those guys were way too comfortable for about 25 minutes.  Play some fucking defense and let's win this thing.

Nevermind. Not worth being a dick about.

So if I’m following correctly, this batcho guy has been chopping it up with our guys and backing it up to the tune of ZERO POINTS AND FOUR FOULS?

Hunter lost Isaacs on another 3 and was quickly benched. 

Then Rice comes in and a Texas run. Keep Hunter on the bench. 

15:23 left.  TV timeout, Texas ball

tech  40     Texas  35

LET'S GO !!!

Carr is such a weird player, knocks down a three, falls down and turns it over, passes up a wide open rice for a drive and a hard fall away jumper. I mean I’ll take it but I’d like to see the extra pass there.

He's a volume scoring guard on a team that needs one. His decision making this season has honestly been pretty consistent and predictable. And good, for the most part.

We need a point guard who can get to the fucking hole and score or dish. 
 

This is what Morris should be doing. To the point of actually forcing it. He's so inside his head right now and is just an observer on the offensive end of the court. He's the sort of talent that could put us over the top if he were ever to reach his potential this year.

Stop trying to take on triple teams, Christian

It was a double and he was fouled.  

Texas on offense struggles recognizing when they are double/triple teamed. Just keep flailing under the basket.

Agree with this.

There were two players right next to him and a third close-by.  He should have just thrown it back out to someone who was open.

Hey I have seen this movie before I think.

I hope it ends the same way.
