My least favorite show on TV right now is Greg & Go Walk with the Ball

Are we actually traveling every possession or are the refs dicks?

Mostly traveling. Guys look all out of place trying to get through the zone.

Ugh. When we haven’t turned it over we have had some good shots this half, but can’t hit anything.

Fair enough. I'm a bit tipsy and know we can't get love some times.

It’s the story of Mar’s career. It plagued him freshman year and only seems to have gotten worse. Calixte as well. Neither have really been able to hit a shot this year either. Very concerning.

I know DP doesn’t like switching up the starters, but I’d have to think Oduro might start getting some looks if Greg can’t start finishing off the bunnies at the rim. At a minimum he’ll see more minutes.

Mason is a big man short of a really really good team

I’m tired of Javon shooting 3s..

We've been saying that since Jalen Jenkins graduated.

Javon was hitting like 38% of his 3s before this game, though. It doesn't help almost all our 3s have been way behind the arc in this half.

JDS not panning out so far is also hurting the team. Supposed to be a zone buster.

 

[Ben Chwarmer]

Javon shouldn’t shoot off the dribble. He rushes too many shots.

Was supposed to have unlimited range...supposedly that's Kolek now...

You mean you dont like shooting 3s from 30 feet out?

 

[Haxormax]

Pretty close to watching something fun instead.

Definitely Paulsen's. If you put a Jenkins or a Shevon Thompson next to an AJ on this team and you might have something, but AJ is going to leave before that happens.

We need to find another Jai Lewis

 

[GMUgemini]

This game's margin is pretty much at the FT line: 13 for Mason, 25 for UMD.

If this team were more patient on offense and played more controlled on defense, this would be a game.

Or a George Evans...

Hell, I'd take another Darryl Monroe (who is a poor man's Jai) or even another Mike Moe (tall, lanky and super athletic and can defend and rebound his butt off, but raw offensively -- Calixte is not acquitting himself on the defensive side of the ball this season).
