This might be the lowest basketball IQ team I've ever watched at NU. Dean hit it on the head, mentally weak all around. Jr high kids know that you can't dibble into a trap or pickup your dribble right in front of the half court line. I keep waiting for this team to show some signs of improvement, but nothing yet and I'm not real hopeful it will get any better this year. Miles has a lot of work to do with this group, which seems crazy after last year.
If I set the over/under of conference wins at 5.5 right now. Would anybody take the overs? It's gonna be tough sledding.
Also, why was the floor so slick? Can't remember so many guys slipping during one game in my life.
Side Note:
Did anyone else watch the Wiscy/Cal game at all? I'm willing to bet Wiscy passed the ball more on a couple of single possessions than NU did during the entire 1st half last night. They cut hard, pass willingly, play great D, and can all shoot. It's like watching a different sport than what we've been playing. I know they have a lot of good players and run a different offense but it's just so night and day. If you are a fan of good basketball, they are a blast to watch.
