Love Zig and Shak but they can't be on the floor together for extended periods.
ZZ
Gainey
Chaz
Igor
Felix

Gotta run those 5 together more.

Gainey is the worst player in the rotation BY FAR

#1 defensive team in the country in KenPom. I think they are elite defensively. The only games where I thought the defense wasn't all that good was the 2 games against UK. I thought they were awesome against UF the second game (and pretty good the first), awesome against Auburn, Miss St, etc.

You said it yourself though...they aren't a good shooting team, which keeps them from being an elite team. They will be a trendy upset pick in the NCAAT, and rightly so because of that.

I just hope Barned adjusts with Shak..... Teams basically ignore him and let Ziegler gets what he wants. Stop the other 3 and we are screwed.

Hes a better shooter than Shak. Teams at least have to pretend to guard him

Blame MLB and Manfred for getting rid of any sort residue on your hands. They created a problem that no one cared about. Like who really cares if they use a little rosin and sunscreen? Obviously, police the super sticky stuff but go back to how it was 6 years ago.

lol. They can’t balls and strikes but you want them to toe the line between what’s regular sticky and what’s super sticky?

They’re both shooting 33% from 3.

One goes 1 of 3...... the other goes 4/12 and makes a couple mid ranges too

The next time Jordan Gainey makes 4 threes in a game will be the first time Jordan Gainey makes 4 threes in a game. He is a black hole on offense and he is lazy, at best, on defense. He’s a borderline D1 player.

He is the definition of daddy ball

That spider tack or whatever it was called was pretty blatant. I recall a pitch sticking to Molinas catching gear once like it was velcro. Other substances like vaseline are easy to catch as well.

Mostly just police egregious violations. Pitchers won't be force to throw was hard to get movement. And it'll save more arms.
