Spillers and Huntley are excellent together.

BTW, saw Abson at the Boone Mall over the weekend. Didn't recognize him at first because he cut his hair. Dude is huge.

Ok I’ve got one too. Saw Flair circa 2010ish at Dean and Deluca wine bar. Sitting with two women, on his exit picked up one of them slapped her on the butt and carried her out.

He then waited the most appropriate amount of time (4-5 seconds) opened the door and gave the crowd a wooo!

Always the entertainer.

Don’t need the 4 ft behind the line 3s. Bad shot selection is an issue overall.

Impressed by our defense’s discipline. Not biting on shot fakes. Playing really good help defense. USA is just doing a good job keeping it within reach. It feels like at any time we could pull away.

He frequented Del Frisco and M5 (Bulla location now) quite a bit. There was a stretch I swear I saw him 1 in 10 times we went out.

It feels like “Mantis don’t miss” has missed a lot this year. Hasn’t had a great year shooting.

Edit: after looking up his stats it hasn’t been an off year. Just feels like it. 36, 30, and 34% from 3 the last 3 seasons.

What is Mantis +/- on the season, probably - 9 tonight, he is more than a step slow on defense.

Yeah it's unfortunate. Seems like we are playing 4 on 5 at times.

South Alabama double teaming and making runs because of our offensive personnel.

Not sure this is good for a strictly spot up 3 shooter. Not horrible, but not good.

Let them come back and about to be tied. Defense doesn’t seem to be there and too many offense rebounds for them.

Look at his percentage the last 10 games, definitely in a slump.

Half as many sub-D-I opponents this year.

Free Throws. This would be a painful loss
