Almost looks like he doesn’t even try to make one.
I’m tired of a turnover machine/weak defender getting a lot of playing time.

Poor performance so far but Marshall has a lot to do with that.

We have a definitive advantage inside, however, we do not look at that as option one on offense

Love Gregory but he must lead the nation in missed turn around fall away jumpers.

Fine with our defense sans some missed rebounds but agreed got to work it inside. It was/is working.

Cannot believe that announcer just said Boone is a tough place to play due 3,333 feet. This is not Denver...🤣

Three air balls from Mantis tonight. Three.

Only been able to watch bits and pieces, but doesn’t seem like Mantis and Pearson have earned their playing time tonight.

We are so frigging inconsistent. Marshall's defense is good, but they haven't even pressed us to their best ability yet. Should be interesting when they do.

He is improving. He usually doesn't even hit the rim.

Hate to pile on but if Mantis isn't standing wide open he's not an offensive threat at all and neither is Brown. I get that Brown is good defensively on the ball and also a pretty reliable ball handler but that's it. Our defense is keeping us in it tonight.

I strongly disagree with that crap about a struggling shooter needs to keep shooting. So if a guy shoots 4 air balls he keeps jacking? 5 shots not even close.

Can we get some homer announcers, you know, like everyone else has?

If you are a defensive liability and you can’t make a bucket, probably should take the night off
