Hatton is playable against teams that aren’t physical. 

I guess then he won’t get that many minutes during the B10 season, lol most of those teams are physical!

I felt Hatton had some good moves but finished at the basket about as good as sparks did

Is that possible? Wasn’t able to watch today but some of those attempts from Sparks  were memorable for all the wrong reasons

I know it’s early but a little concerning that we were 4-19 from 3 but the good news, we shoot 19 threes and it’s an exhibition game!   

4-8 in second hald iirc. Tenn was just as bad from 3 in the first, both teams came out looking like it was the first exhibition game of the season and against a good team

Similar takes from scrimmage except Rice showed out. He’s the winner on the team. Smart. Does the big and little things. Thought the hustle was solid down the stretch. We are going to go as Rice/Reneau/Ballo go.

Goode needs to be better. Carlyle hasn’t looked good to me yet. Want to see Lots of Tucker and Gallo. Chaz Lanier shot UT out of this game. Want more transition to help Ballo.

Tennessee is notoriously a great defensive team. Hopefully our playmaking and shooting improves but beating a well coached and talented team on the road is a nice start.

Time will tell -- sample size of two shots isn't going to be much to go on.

The fact that he played six minutes in the exhibition game is probably indicative that he isn't going to be looked on for big minutes.  He is a decent shooter for his size and I would expect that you'll see more ten to twelve footers for him.  At worst, he's an experienced big in case of foul problems or injury.

Couldn’t agree more. No way Gallo doesn’t start or at least get starter minutes over Carlyle. Tucker is going to be one of our top 5 players and make it hard to keep off the court in important moments.

glad to see Rice ball out and so far be exactly what we need

Myles Rice is exactly what this program has been missing. 20 pts today, 4 assists, 0 TO in 31 minutes. And a couple of huge plays to close the game out down the stretch.

I thought Woodson's rotations were pretty good, particularly in the first half. Long stretches with Mgbako and Goode as the two forwards. If everyone is healthy, assume Galloway takes Cupps minutes and Tucker takes Leal's and some of Goode's.

Outside shooting was terrible again. Has to be better. Both teams shot poorly, but they generated more clean looks than we did.

Reneau is a stud scorer. And he did it in a number of different ways, not just iso post-ups.

Ballo didn't do much other than rebound. He'll have better games.

Agree except Ballo screens and clears the lane better than I have seen centers in recent IU history.

I predict that Ballo will only be ~70% of what we expected. Good, but not B1G POY or even close. I could be wrong and hope so.

POY would be amazing but I dont expect that or anything. If he is top 3 center in the bigten then we are in good shape. I imagine Rice will be top 3 point guard so that’s pretty good in a 20 team bigten

Carlyle did hit our first 3 though. Hopefully he can find more comfort and hit a lot of those even if not a starter.  We need guys willing to shoot the 3 and hit them
