Welage guarding Krampelj is probably not a good idea

CU up 15-8 and they haven't even shot a 3 yet.
This will get fugly if they start shooting and making 3's.

Marsahll with an offensive foul.
Coupled with 2 TO's and 2 missed 3's, that's 5 possessions that he has contributed to X getting nothing.

How can your best player - Scruggs - not take a shot yet in this half?
Over 13 minutes in.
Unbelievable.

Goodin with another 3. Make or miss them, at least both were in rhythm shots a couple feet behind the 3, and they weren't bank shots. Got to give him credit, but wouldn't want to count on it in crunch time. Need to do it about 5 games in a row before that happens.

Hardin and Welage are 2-3 from 3 and Marshall is 0-3.
I will throw up if Marshall shots another 3.

Marshall is like Jameis (sp) Winston of TB. He is a stat stuffer, but throws about 4 interceptions a game.
This is the most random comparison of all time... that is 100% accurate.

The brief flashes of brilliance are really starting to be outweighed by the horrible decisions and awful body language.

He has a perpetual get out of jail free card. Steele doesn't hold him accountable at all.

Goodin is 8-15 from 3 in his last 4 games - not counting this one.
But his % is still under 33% so he has a ways to go before he has a decent % from 3.
And has 10 TO's to 11 assists in last 4 games.
Agree...would not want to count on his shot in crunch time.
Of course, that's assuming there is a crunch time.

Jones and Hankins are a combined 5-5 from the field.
X's strength is post play.
Every possession should be about getting the post players a shot.
