While I agree we’ve had better offensive outputs with better shooting, but the ball movement, spacing, drives and shot selection was as good as I’ve seen in a long time. It’s very encouraging.
Agree, but we need to hit open 3's a lot better than we did last night to beat good teams. That is a reeling pretty bad team we played honestly. I'm still encouraged though and think we handle UK without much trouble honestly. We'll see how it goes.

Yes, I agree with this discussion on the win last night and UF's offense:

1. There was some better movement. I suspect the movement leading to a game winning 3 point play against AU has something to do with players moving better now.

2. This offense is not great until UF hits a good percentage of 3s and Stone or Bassett or Hayes provides a bit of inside scoring.

3. UAL is reeling so once they started missing shots and UF got up on them, UF's players could play and particularly shoot more freely on offense and thus UF looked somewhat better on offense.

4. It was a good defensive effort, but of course UAL helped.

5. I am hoping against hope that the M.O. of this team is to play well when their backs are against the wall and against "name" opponents. That might explain some crazy losses at home and on the road this year and might bode well for making a tourney run.

Ready for some great news (said sarcastically)

Bassett missed the 2nd half of the game yesterday feeling sick. Now being reported he got hit in the head in the first half and may have a concussion.

Going to be great playing UK without 4.5 big men......

How can you think this was news? I mentioned Bassett was likely in the concussion protocol on page 5 above and you liked the post. He was clearly hit in the head midway through the first half and never played again as his 5 total minutes indicates.

4.5? I don’t consider Stokes or Johnson as players we are missing. I have a feeling both would be redshirting regardless (yes I realize Johnson played like 5 minutes this year).

Because he was hit in the head, came out and did not play further. That usually means they are at least concerned a player is concussed.

Ah I see what you mean, my bad, you’re right.
