No, they really don’t. Very few posts here (if any) of people “freaking out”. Frustration has rightfully been expressed.
I was wondering if I had imagined it, but seemed like an unusual amount.
They are taking it carefully with Ward’s minutes, but it is clear his length makes a difference in defending the rim.
It is clear our offense sticks more when neither Lipsey nor Gilbert are on the floor.
The double is to speed up the offense and creat turnovers. We got some, but OU was better as the game went along at moving the ball the extra time to get the open three and seemed to hit 100% of the open ones to their credit, with at least 3 different guys
Okay, I'm glad to see some other people thought the same thing. Obviously it's tough to tell without any replays with better angles, but there were at least 2-3 out of bounds calls that I was a bit skeptical on. That being said, none of our guys ever reacted as if the calls were wrong, but that's also probably what Otz wants from them regardless of whether the call is correct.
We have Gilbert and Milan instead of Gabe and Holmes. Way different types of players. Almost wish we'd play a zone with Milan's length and quit running the legs off our players on the defensive end. Almost looked like TJ was putting personal out there to force that doubling into working. What was that nonsense pulling Tamin and Gilbert at the same time? Haven't seen much of that instead of garbage time so we do it conference opener at OU? I figure TJ will get it sorted out, but I didn't see it in Norman. Pretty obvious OU was prepared for it, and we kept pressing on with it.
