Terrible play in last 4 minutes. Very worried about this team

I'm worried about them as well. We are not a good basketball team right now. And it's not just one thing.....we don't do a lot of things very well at all.

JB the scoreless wonder...

 

[Soonerinkc]

Outrebounded by 10

3/10, several front end 1+1...

Rest stats not horrible but man we look like dog crap.

Has anyone found Christian James? He clearly didn't make the trip to Morgantown, I wonder where he is.

I don't know what team I'm watching. This team bears little or no relation to the team I watched at the start of the season.

 

[Sooner81]

Seniors??? Not playing like them ,and MAKE YOUR FREE THROWS!! Reynolds had a couple sod and ones but by, as a guard, missing front ends of one and ones he basically missed 6 free throws and our big guys sucked too.

Lons got them in the spots you have to make the shots

And can someone have strong hands and hold on to the stupid rebound ??

 

[SoonerTraveler]

OU is shooting free throws like a last place conference team.
OU is giving up offensive rebounds like a last place conference team.

Can only hope for better play in the 2nd half.

Wondering if the "rotation" is screwing with them...

Seriously...manek has 7 early doesnt see the floor much after. No rthym being developed by top 5 guys...course do we have a top 5?

Reynolds and claxite? Second leading scorers with 6 each

I’ve about had it with this team. For all the “experience” we have we might have the lowest basketball IQ of any team I’ve ever seen. Odomes just barrels into the lane over and over and turns the ball over and commits offensive fouls. Calixte comes in the game and hits a couple of shots, great! But then he starts firing with reckless abandon. And then at the end of the half we foul a guys and give them 2 points. And a lot of the issues we had last year are rearing their ugly head this year. We get beat on drives, don’t get loose balls, get beat for rebounds, miss easy passes and layups, and fumble the ball out of bounds. I’ve never said this before but maybe Kruger does need to go.

Thought I saw him in the closing minutes, but that player passed up a wide open three from the corner. Guess I was wrong.

Oh what I wouldn't give to watch a team that plays like they give a rats ass. Where's the toughness we saw earlier in the season?

 

[oudna]

26 point half

Streak continues

Wonder what changed

Lol...nice one.

Looks like more than him..Doo is lost as well...

 

[soonervegas]

So maybe it wasnt Trae......

That certainly seems like our current trajectory.

 

[Soonerinkc]

Just my observation but it seems like we run no offense, or sets at all.

Watch wv...their guards cut through using high post, low post for screens.

Seems our off is spread 4 g out...run high post up...then see what happens. Or just 1 g dribbling up top..not much cutting.

Yes, it is strange and puzzling. The toughness and maturity displayed by those experienced senior players seems to have faded away.

During the course of a season, teams either get better or worse. I hope some better days are ahead, starting with this 2nd half in Morgantown.

 

[OUsky]

Must 2nd half. If we don’t win this one, we may not win more than two more.

 

[AdaSooner]

So maybe it wasnt Trae......

What was the common denominator?

Hate to say it, but I’m beginning to think it was coaching, and not necessarily the head coach. This team was not ready to play today. They were even less prepared at home against Baylor.
