Took Blanton three strides (with a dribble) to get from the three-point stripe to the hoop.

Although we've slowed down a bit, we really seem to move the ball well (Fred's offense!!)  Reason I mention this is looking at NDSU I got flashbacks of a Miles coached team!

McGowens is such a good defender

It seems like inly a matter of time before he gets one, that’s for sure!

[MichHusker]

We are scary good when we can force live ball turnovers 

[atskooc]

8-28 from three is less than ideal.

And when we drive.  We can actually make some tough shots at the rim this year.  Would like to see us settle for a lot less threes than we shoot.

[BjoeHusker]

5 steals for Teddy Allen

[hskr4life]

Only 6 points from our bench today.  Will probably want to see that a little higher as we move forward.

[Handy Johnson]

Teddy “Buckets” is for REAL, has some sick gym rat moves you can’t really teach/coach...

[hskr4life]

I know the TV is talking about Teddy today, but I think Trey deserves some love for his performance today.

I would imagine we get more out of Webster in most games, but yes. Yvan, thor, and shamiel may not provide us much offense 

[MichHusker]

Confidence builder for Yvan

It's actually Yuv, Shamiel, and Kobe which I think is some good scoring power off the bench.  One of the reasons I am in favor of Thor starting and playing the minutes he does.

First non-made dunk of the year.  Was 0fer.

Out of everyone, you want Shamiel to take Thors minutes?  Agree that Shamiel could use some more minutes, but don't believe Thor is getting too many minutes.  Highest IQ guy we got and one that isn't always looking for "his"

I love Thor.  

 

We need a bigger body who can actually score at the rim until our big man depth returns. 
 

We’re gonna need players who want to get theirs.  I have no problem with that.  Teddy has been given the green light to shoot the ball.  I have no problem with how he’s played so far.  
 

I’d have Thor in the entire game against zone defenses.  I like what Shamiel brings against m2m.  

[Cazzie22]

Banton is the key to this team.  We need his rebounding and playmaking.  Thor gives us ball movement and unselfish play and he will have his moments offensively.  Hopefully, we will see improvement each game.

I'm curious. What do people think of Lat Mayens defense/rebounding. He hasn't really popped to me yet but I haven't really looked closely at him either.

There's a lot of work to do there on the defensive end.

I'm gonna pay close attention to him on Tuesday. He seems slow footed and I worry about him once big ten play starts playing in the middle. I still think Yvan will be the starter once big ten play starts, but I need a better look before I say for certain

Agree we need rebounds.  That’s another reason I want Shamiel in more.  I’d split their minutes.
