Bama Game Thread: Bama vs Barn - 2nd half thread - Superstition Change

[JDCrimson]

At the game today, We played really poorly today. We didn't seem to know how to attack them. A lot less motion on offense today. Defensively we left too much space on the perimeter.

We played Auburn against Texas imo...

And I will close with this. If I'm Byrne and Oats, I would have the leadership of every student organization on campus in my office on Tuesday. That was most disgusting behavior I have ever seen out of Bama student section. If they cant act any better than that I would revoke their tickets.

One game does not a season make.

that’s what’s so great about this sport

we (as a group on here) are very negative about the team. I don’t get it. Perhaps it’s football spoilage. But, this is a helluva team that has an off game. They worked hard. They never gave up.

I think Auburn had our rotation all wrong in the first half. But we corrected. And if one or two more 3s drop it’s a totally different game.

I hate too give The Barn any credit, but, they simply answered every run we made..

Next time we play we will beat them watch n see..

HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT.

Cliff's been a bust.

Unfortunately.

that's dumb. He's arguably Bama's most important addition, a true rim protector.

 

[BamaMoon]

Controversial take: I think the emphasis on playing with fewer TOs made us tight and hesitant.

Our style of play...to play and shoot fast and will generate a higher rate of TOs than slower styles.

Too much dribbling (more than usual) and less passing. And I lost count of shots that were short, a sign of nervousness.

He is who he is, and who we thought he was when we took him. It takes a little bit to work on timing and movement with a new team, but I think he's improved and gotten more comfortable as the season has progressed.

 

[RollTide-YNWA]

Need to get rid of the ISO ball, especially from Sears. Didn't have the movement today to get wide open threes, but some of that can be attributed to Auburn's defense.

The love is still there.

Nah. Take him away and we have 6 or 7 losses. He's our rim.protector.

Was Sherrill hurt or just didn’t play? He seemed to be getting g better and better last few games but might not been good matchup.

Strange place to say that after he had one of his best game of the year imo. 12 boards and 8 points.

 

[JDCrimson]

I dont think Sherrell is quick enough to play on Broome or Cardwell. I think he would have gotten dominated by them.

End of the night all it boils down to is that Bama had a bad shooting night and we didn’t.

such is basketball. Bama is still a national title level team.

Everyone knew it would be a tough game. It was not winnable shooting like that from 3. Learn from it and move forward. This is not football. This loss only matters if you let it lead to another.

Scream it louder so the tipsy football fans hear it too

On the flip side my Auburn wife was happy about the game. Things were very exciting over here. I don’t mind losing like that.

Nope. He’s doing what CNO brought him here to do.

Name a player or team this season that’s taken Broome outta his game.

We have a murderous remainder of the season. To split the last 6 games would actually be a reasonable result. Our schedule ended up being ridiculously backloaded.

I can name one. Oddly enough it was South Carolina. He got dinged in that one yeah but he wasn’t playing particularly well before then.

I agree, though. Cliff is really that missing piece from the final four run. His rim protection is that important. We got around him tonight but he makes the lane a chore at all times he’s present.
