Game 4: UCF at Michigan Open Thread

Yeah I mean we have a pro coach it might take him some time to install a coherent college system on both ends like Beilein always had on O and had to worse effect on D with the 131 as a plan B and then realized he needed to recruit DCs and hand it over to them like a football coach.

I figured we’d see a ton of zone on D based on Miami being a top 3 zone using team in the NBA but offense was always gonna be full of turnovers post Beilein.

One of the more frustrating things to me this season has been what a small percentage of the game we have been playing our best 2-3 lineups in. Fine vs the MAC, but this is a step up in competition and it’s showing.

Better than the lineup with Davis.

Glad Juwan responded with our longer more athletic lineup; John’s and Brown are going to have to log a lot of minutes; Smith can’t stay in front and Franz can’t stay on the floor.

The energy from Williams and Johns is the catalyst that got us a mini run there before the 8min TO. I don’t really like the lineup, but it worked for a few minutes.

Glad they didn’t call the charge on Johns there

Please keep taking bad mid range shots, UCF.

Like this woman’s commentary. Unfortunately, she’s been forced to tell it like it is, so far.

Please tell me that pause was for a flop warning. Dear god.

Starting Davis and keeping Dickinson on the bench for that long against good teams seems kinda crazy. Digging a hole on purpose.

Juwan once again finding success with the “4 guys who weren’t on the team last year” lineup.

We’ll be in a hole regardless

Johns much more comfortable putting the ball on the floor than shooting this year

This group that’s on the floor should be called the “energy and hustle unit”!!

I wonder if this is the beginning of seeing us move to Brooks and Smith splitting the 40 minutes at PG equally and only playing together 5-10 a night so we can be bigger on defence and hit the offensive boards for the other 30-35 minutes.
