Post about the non-conference basketball season here.

Under no circumstances should this thread become a season long basketball thread

I like this team’s desire and effort, but is there some unwritten rule in Arkansas basketball that we shall not make perimeter shots?

Even before this year we’ve had to get our points from defense and driving the lane and free throws. This team has the ability to make 3s but they seem to press themselves instead of just shooting their shot, much like other teams we’ve had.

The start of the second half against Michigan gave us an idea of what this team could be and it was a welcome thing of beauty. Hopefully we’ll see more of that or we’ll get killed in conference play.

It will help if Nelly and DJ can keep warming up.

Z is the best shooter on the team but a defensive liability in certain matchups. With Aidoo getting healthy I’m guessing he’s a 15-20 min per game type of guy in conference play

An idea whose time has come cannot be stopped by any army or any government.

Adam Ford Post-Michigan writeup

By advanced stats, Dj Wagner is our defensive anchor while Boogie is our offensive anchor. Brazile grading out as our 4th best player right now

When's the last time we had an actual halfcourt offense?

It's hilarious to me when Kentucky fans act like Cal's offense is antiquated and inefficient.

This feels like the golden state warriors after years of Muss iso ball

I've thought that all year

If they think what Cal runs is iso ball, I'd love to see what they'd think of Muss's offense

Nice to see us taking care of business. Nelly getting into double figures is key for this team

I've called a few out on this as well. If they think this is ISO ball, the Kentucky fans here aren't nearly as knowledgeable as I once believed.

Blue blood fanbases in all sports tend to the least knowledgeable of the sport.

Bama football
LSU baseball

For examples.

Obviously we are playing the bulls.
