Are we missing Tommy?

[zagdontzig]

So much talent… what’s missing?

[NEC26]

We are missing a top shelf PG.

[ZagLawGrad]

No.

[gonstu]

Zags continue to get challenged by physical, aggressive defense.

[uZiGiZaG]

We are missing a player than can create their own shot off the dribble. Bad.


Also, the turnovers are just bush league. Free Throws too. Terrible.

[NEC26]

We are missing a player than can create their own shot off the dribble. Bad.

Specifically a PG that can create his own shot or hit a three with consistency.

[gonstu]

Agreed on the turnovers- some didn’t even seemed created by the defense? Weird how loose they’ve been with the ball.

[katman50]

No, not missing Tommy. Missing Kispert and Ayayi.

[TexasZagFan]

No, not missing Tommy. Missing Kispert and Ayayi.

...and Jalen

[zagfan1]

NO

[HenneZag]

We are missing players who can create a shot. Teams have us figured out. We will shoot poorly from outside, they will pack it in. They will hold there ground against the moves Timme makes, he then either chucks it up or forces a pass. I miss the flow and chemistry we are used to seeing. This team lacked passion from the start tonight.

[zagfan08]

I don’t think we have all that much talent to be honest. Who can beat their man 1 on 1 in the half court for a bucket? Who can make a 3 with consistency? Our system can get us a bunch of good looks but at some point we need individual playmaking and it’s just absent. We’ll put up a bunch of points but when we need to score (last 6 minutes against Duke and Alabama) we can’t manufacture enough quality looks.

[bartruff1]

No, not missing Tommy. Missing Kispert and Ayayi.

And Suggs...

[DZ]

Tonight we missed everything, so it's kind of an open question.

We missed 3s, we missed front ends, we missed assignments, we missed ANY 3 pt defense, this was our worst game in quite some time.

But we learned a lot. We learned we are not a top 5 team, not now. We have a TON of work to do to even consider a one seed bc I see us getting beat at least once, maybe twice in conference.

[daskim]

So much talent… what’s missing?

The three point shooting of Kispert and leadership.

The incredibly significant things that Ayayi did at key times in a game.

The will to win and raw ability of Jalen Suggs.
