Anyone else cringe anytime Dom handles the rock?

Yea.  But he's been progressing.   There were times earlier in the season when he was a black hole.   He was particularly bad handling the rock against Arizona.   Today he's had his moments.   

For me it's Dom's line drive shot that drives me nuts.   Either way, he needs some refining.

Nice to see us not laying down. That is a real test to the toughness and heart of a team.

The problem is not Greene it is our guys inability to hit open jumpers and finish at the rim.  You can't get assists if guys aren't hitting shots. 

Our made baskets have come off one-on-one play.  For the most part...

Tough to win playing one on one basketball.

I'll tell you this, I'd like to see our guys go down fighting. Please someone foul out of this game. Or Dunlap get a tech, fire these guys up. SHow some life

I'd rather than go down fighting scoring more points :)

Oh for sure. Has anyone fouled out this year?

Greene isn't even stepping into wide open jumpers today...caught him a couple of times with nobody within 15 feet abs he looked timid just shooting and almost faded away..

Now only if we can get on a nice shooting streak. Reversion to the mean after an awful first 3/4 of a game.

Nice little run here, saving face if nothing else.

Speaking of Greene..he has potentialvto be a great on-ball defender in his time here IMO

I think that this game will really help us in the long-term.  We looked scared in the first 30 minutes of this game and the entire Kentucky game.  I think maybe now we are starting to realize that it doesn't matter who or where we are playing, but if you impose your will you will get results.

"It's something he's working on and he doesn't try to force. You often notice Dom pull up his dribble and look for Greene/Harrison. That wisdom to know his shortcomings is a bigger positive."

Maybe Dunlap has brought out his bat.

Good to hear, lets keep it under 15. No breakaway dunks for them
