Another shitty first quarter. No energy on D.

Pretty shocking that some of you wouldn't give up Okobo for DSJ.

TJ still hasn't subbed out with 8 minutes left in the second. ???

He went out when Oubre originally came in I think. Just came back early

Booker has come a long ways creating a complete offensive game from what he showed at Kentucky, but I’d like to see him spend sometime getting back to his beginnings. Needs to work on that shot and become a knockdown shooter. Getting a real pg and getting him better looks will help, but he can work on his shot.

Jackson's been affected the most by Booker's return. So clearly, we must move Booker.

Jackson was pretty invisible out there...that’s pretty rare for him. He may not always do good things, but he rarely does nothing

Melton and Bridges can't continue to be Benders out there. We can barely afford one offensive zero in the starting lineup. Two is untenable.

It only took them 4:44 to get Ayton a second half shot.

I was about to post how TJ Warren has been invisible, but he just had a nice bucket and block.

One day TJ will pass to Ayton on one of his drives.
