Re: Game #18 - @ LaSalle, Wed. Jan 15, 7 pm
We have to be one of the worse offensive teams in the country.. Can't make FT's. Can't shoot layups. No offensive flow at all dribble dribble dribble and try to go one on one every trip down the court. Getting really frustrating watching these games. Where is the improvement...???

Re: Game #16: St Louis - Tuesday Jan 7 @ 7pm ET
Reischel did a great job getting to the lane multiple times, but he can't finish.. He hit 1 layup and had numerous poor shots without drawing any contact. He seems to have some ability, but confidence level seems low... Was hoping the spurt in 1st half against LSU would get him going, but right back...

We still need someone who can penetrate and score, get fouled or dish off.. How many times did we get into the lane and lose the ball, or throw up a wild shot. Point guard is a must get.. Matthews looks like the real deal and Martin is getting better.. Going to need someone to get them the ball.. On...
