That was the most three pointers Tennessee has made all year

And the reason would be our poor defense of the three in this game. Can't let them feel like they're shooting in warmups.


Also we made 1 3pt shot in the 2nd half. 1. Hard to win with that when the other team shoots 40+% from behind the arc like Tennessee did today.

Defend the 3 better and we win no matter what we shoot from 3.

Wade has been a great player for us in his time here, but he's not playing good basketball right now. He's hurting us more than he's helping us and that needs to change if we're going to make a serious tourney run. He's sloppy, out of control, and isn't the floor general we need him to be. Some of you people need to pull your head out and stop saying otherwise. No player is above being criticized when they're not playing well.

He wasn't great today, but we were a lot better when he was on the floor vs when he wasn't.

This has always been a common theme for teams we play. Nuno and Olin have started asking other teams' insiders to name the guy who's going to have a career day against us.

I'm still counting on one more win this season for the Ags and hoping for two. I haven't seen enough promise from our guys over the last 5-10 games to hope for more. Maybe I'll be proven wrong and I sure hope so!

When was the last Buzz team that was a good 3 point shooting team?

He isn't above criticism. His expectations are higher than others and rightfully so. People have a problem with posters calling him the worst basketball player they've seen in a while, because it's flat out asinine. Even in a bad game he's still productive for us

How nice is it we are the first game of the day? Because of the disaster that ESPN is any other time slot we would miss the first 10 minutes of the game due to their two hour time slots.


I always record ESPN news too for the first hour of a game I want to watch for that reason. You almost have to assume the prior game is going to run over.

Wade needs to be better or we're screwed. He's not playing well. I'm sure he would tell you that too

Their best players got open 3's literally whenever they wanted them. Buzz absolutely refuses to guard the 3. Been that his whole career. Teams that can shoot easily beat Buzz, which is why he never makes it anywhere in the tournament.

That's all fine, but he's supposed to be our best player. Just being productive isn't good enough. He needs to be more than that. And i don't care what his stat line said today, he wasnt productive and hurt momentum several times. What he's putting out there isnt enough for us to be a serious player in the tourney.

He scored or assisted on 2/3s of our points. Saying he wasn't productive is again just flat out wrong

he also killed momentum many times and made stupid mistakes. It can go both ways.

I never said he didn't Braxton. I said even with all of that he was still our most productive player today

It's part of his game and we are going to live with it. We built this team around him. He's just as likely on Wednesday to be 5/7 from 3. He's streaky and plays on the edge, we know that and we are going to ride it.

Prob should have clarified. When he's off I've never seen a guy worse than him. When he's on he's elite. Is that better ?

Good way to clarify. Let's look at what Wade did down the stretch vs what Ziegler did. Buzz always preached about his bball IQ, well where was today when it mattered?

Wade has historically kicked Ziegler's ass. Ziegler was nails down the stretch and that three was tough. Sometimes just tip your cap
Jason Stegent

My entire point in every post has been that Wade is not playing good basketball right now and we're in trouble in the tourney if he doesn't turn that around. If anybody thinks he is playing good basketball right now, well then I seriously question your basketball IQ.

And no, he was not our most productive player on the floor today. Not all production shows up on the score sheet. He turned the ball over, killed momentum, and was a liability on defense. Andy was the complete opposite of that today and was our most productive player.

You only seem to appear in game threads that we've lost or pulled out of our a**. Appears to be a trend where you don't post and we win games, maybe take one for the team the next 6 weeks.

There's actual numbers that exist to determine how productive a player is, but just choosing to ignore them is something I guess

Andy played better. He was not more productive

Basketball, just like all sports, can't be judged on stats alone. But you're not going to admit that your argument has holes in it. That's okay

I've been to almost every home game this year and was there today across the bench and one thing I noticed about Wade that I haven't in the past is that there was a stretch in the second half when he was sitting at the very end of the bench away from everyone.

This was right after I said he seems to have lost confidence. This went on for awhile just completely distanced. Then there was a timeout shortly after and he was well outside the huddle not paying attention to anything that was being said by Buzz.

Is this a normal thing for him I've just never noticed? Of not then something was definitely all up in his head today.
