With a min to go we were at the line to bring it to a 2 point deficit. Missed front end and just shit the bed.

Hey Rhody Fam! Good to be back after a magical run last season. As per my usual, first half observations...

Positives:
- I like our conditioning. We'll find out shortly but I like our chances with a faster pace in the 2nd half. I feel they had no legs at the end of longer sequences.
- So many guys on our team can handle the ball. I'd love to see more creativity on the dribble/drive. Less leaning floaters, more drop steps and head fakes when in close.
- Jarvis seems to have his shot back.
- CL looks like he got bigger in the offseason.

Neutral:
- Is it just my Rhody colored glasses or are we getting hosed on some calls? They're all up on our perimeter players and no calls, which I'm fine with but we've been called for some ticky tack reaches.
- Love Dre's touch around the hoop but man is he slow close out/box out.

Negatives:
- Brutal sequence with a chance to cut it to 1 and JD goes for the dunk with his inside hand instead of layup...followed by a 3 in transition for them.
- No surprise here but the size difference will be a factor all year. Our guards are big however so hopefully that can neutralize things.
- Miss free throws. Perhaps I should just sticky this here from last years regular season.
- Sone very bad sequences to close out the half. Could have been a 2 or 3 point game. We let them off the hook.
- Not to pick on him but JD had a horrible half.

Going from a chance to tie inside 2 minutes to down 10 at the half?

Man that is awful.....

Wouldn’t wanna be wearing a blue jersey in our locker room right now.....

Crushing.

Horrible last 2:30 to end the half. Bad effort all around. Getting out-shot and out-rebounded. Too many to's. Not going to win this game if things don't drastically change.

Every year it’s like they just put the team together. You would think the guard rotations would be stronger. The way to play with each other would be learned already.

I have no sympathy for this. Figure out the strongest lineups and play them early. Get lower stances on defense. Don’t jog around like you’re a team of guys that have been anointed.

Embarrassing they haven’t already adjusted to Nevada doubling the point guard to exploit the 3 players left. That would take movement. Uri seems uninterested in moving around.

We need to settle down and start running our offense. Too many jump shots for us in the first half. We need and should be getting in the lanes and getting to the rim more often. One FT going to the basket in unacceptable.

Too much subbing. Put your best five guys on the floor and play them until someone can't breath or fouls out.

Dan needs to light a serious fire under their ass.
We are better than this.
Time to man up.
Jarvis needs to play as much as possible.
I'd rather see Daron out there at point than Jeff right now as well.

This x100.

If Nevada is such a big game then you need extended time with the best guys on the floor. Dan should know who they are by now. Jeez

Agreed. Thought this was our problem last year at times as well, doesn’t let guys get into the flow of the game.

Awful interior defense and offense.
Four free throws to thirteen for Nevada.
Jarvis Garrett is the best Ram on the floor, so far.
Doesn't seem like there's much chemistry on offense
with players being run in and out all the time.
Terrell seems a no show, and EC is getting shut down.
Surprised Nevada only has a six rebound edge. Seemed like more.
Hope the second half is better.

14.2 seconds left Hurley time out. JG walks the ball up, time running out JT throws up a
prayer.
Was that our play we called in the time out?????????

Terrible offense. Bad shots and turnovers. And the defensive intensity isn't close to what it was on opening night. What's up with our two top offensive players?

Don't understand why we go back to this lineup. Defensively I don't think it will let us get back in the game.

My five: Jarvis, EC, JT, Stan and Cyril and let them play. That would be my approach.

Langevine picks up his third foul in first minute of the 2nd. My fear of him being a foul machine and his time being limited is being manifested. He needs to learn to foul less.

Holy bail out.

We should throw away the on ball defense for a few possessions and see if these guys can make shots.

They're not even looking for perimeter shots and why should they? Stop inviting the screen and roll and put bodies in passing lanes.

They are just owning us off the dribble. We press hard and their big guards just over power us.

Jarvis is the man. Leave him in the game please.

A sloppy game benefits us. Let's keep it going.

I'll say it once more and maybe it'll come true...

Stop chasing the ball on defense and creating space for them inside. If they make a few 3's...then go back to it. But at least try.
