We are leaving too many guys wide open on the perimeter!!
Need to pick up the D and when we do get a stop we have to score on Offense.
Too many empty trips!!

jay complaining has helped Nova as last three are called 0n X
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Very disappointing. We had it down to 7 with 2 or 3 chances to cut it more then fell apart in the last 3 minutes. Couple of bad calls didn’t help. Ugh!

Tre missing these free throws is where you can tell the shoulder is really bothering him.

It's the only time where there's no adrenaline and it's all form and it seems like there's a little hitch in that shoulder and he's just off.
I don't buy it for a minute. I think it's a complete loss of confidence. He has not been very good against Nova during his career. You don't take 25 foot 3's if your shoulder is hurting. If so, that's on the coaches.

X is down 12 at the half
Shot 2-8 from 3 while Nova shot 6-17.
Butler made 15 3's at a 68% clip and only beat Nova by 8 and at home as well.
Someone or someones need to make some 3's in the 2H.
Thought Kanter should have seen more than 8 minutes of play.

We fall behind early and then start pressing. I think it's as much mental as anything

Tre 2-6 and missed the front of a 1-1. Macura not much better. Not good.
