There's gotta be somebody on this team who can turn himself into a good shooter. As a freshman and sophomore, Oladipo couldn't throw the ball into the ocean. When he came back for his junior season, he was a pretty dadgum good shooter. I'm guessing he busted his A$$ during the offseason. It can be done.

Oh, how I long for the days of a Matt Roth or a Jordan Hulls (when healthy) or a Nick Zeisloft or even a Yogi Ferrell (the upperclassman). We still don't have that guy who can consistently knock down shots from distance. 5 for 25 tonight -- that's downright embarrassing. We turn three of those 20 misses into makes and we don't need OT. They made 12. We made 5. That's how you end up in OT with a mediocre team.

Al, Al, Al, Al -- you gotta either let him go or foul him hard enough that he doesn't make a bucket. Can't have a three-point play. That's fundamental hoops!

Archies 79 Freddys 68

2-13 from 3-point line. First of all, we gotta hit a higher percentage. Second of all, we need to be hitting at least 7-8 from distance a game -- and hopefully more.

You don't pass backward like that in the backcourt. Jeez -- this team isn't smart.

Rob -- don't go to the corner! You should be smarter than that.

Looked to me like Carlton touched it last.

WHY IS ROB NOT IN THE GAME!!!

There's just over 3 minutes left. Where is Rob?

Man, for a second there, I thought Al got decapitated -- and that would've been ugly.

Brunk got hammered down there, too.

Where is Race? Thought he played some decent minutes in the first half.

One thing -- among many -- that still disappoints me under Archie is that we don't seem to value the basketball like we should. You have to concentrate 40 minutes a game and make sure those passes get where they need to go. You cannot be lazy for even one second. And we're lazy for a LOT of seconds. ...

They just stole a 2-foot pass!

Is DD so banged up he can't dunk anymore? ... That missed layup was absolutely ridiculous.

That's essentially a five-point play ... The easy deuce DD missed and the three-point play at the other end. ...

DeRon, catch the damn ball!

Another bunny missed!

How did TJD miss that? ...

What in God's name was Damezi doing there?

I really, really, really wish we'd stop wasting possessions.

We're just throwing away possessions.

Thank you, Rob!

We're 0 for 3 on 3s -- all airballs.
