Another zone gift to Henry

They almost did that with the weave, but always seems like the best actions out of that are getting Franz downhill

That clipboard is as big as Izzo.

Once again zone gets Henry a one on one with Smith

Next man up lets go Zeb

Franz has been solid on D, but he’s so out of rhythm on the other end

He’s likely in a boot as a precaution…I wouldn’t read too much into it.

Our whole frontcourt has barely shown up. Time for Juwan’s halftime magic.

On ball defense has been great.

Baseline drive and assist was good too.

I thought he was right to push the ball off his rebound too but the rest of the team is just sort of unfocused and lacking intensity.

Yeah, Livers should be shooting all the threes he can. I know he wants to be more diverse than that but at 45% he should be getting up way more looks from deep.

Juwan was not happy a lot that half. Think that was him screaming NO!!! when Smith took the three instead of getting it to Hunter with a mismatch.

Well as bad as a half as any. Brooks injured, losing, playing terrible on offense. On the plus side only down 4

He’s in a walking boot. I’d say he’s been ruled out

I did have Rocket Watts having twice as many at halftime as Hunter and Franz combined. Right next to my stamp with the upside-down airplane.

We are 2 weeks away from a second round game in the NCAA tournament and 19ish days away from a sweet 16 game. Hopefully Brooks’ injury isn’t serious and he can make it back by one of those dates.

Well it’s certainly not a good sign. And his injury looked bad at the time. I’d be shocked if he plays before the NCAAs.

Guys saying Eli’s automatically out for next weekend seems like a massive overreaction…

I broke my lower leg playing hockey, and am always amazed to see how far legs can bend in high end college/pro athletes before breaking. But that reminded me of my tibial fracture.

Them having 30 at the half is probably the best they could have hoped for.
