Metheney and Diggs just get taken to the basket over and over.

Reece is playing well, Plowden is on the bench because Juger is an automaton who is allergic to fouls. So, let's put in Oneal.

Yes, he scored. But he's too slow to cover Skogman on the arc and help v drives. So, we have 0 interiir defense BY CHOICE

Almost every point the bulls have scored in the second half (outside if free throws) have been a direct result if them taking advantage of Metheny. Our coaches love affair with him is handcuffing this team.

To be fair, Plowden split his chin open and only missed 3 minutes.

Either our entire team is playing a different defense than Metheny or he is terrible. One of the two is true.

Why is Curtis parked on the bench and Mills in the game as Buffalo stretches the lead? Oh, because Curtis has 3 fouls.

I'm with ya. I don't see what he does for us. He should be on the end of the bench.

Down double digits with 5 minutes to go, Diggs might be more valuable than Mills at this point

They shoot 27 free throws.

We shoot 12.

They're more aggressive. Right.

They were much more aggressive and we have multiple players who can’t guard.

Most of the game they had longer more athletic guys on the floor but 35 free throws is crazy.

Singling out Matheny doesn't make sense to me. Diggs couldn't guard a street cone, Curtis doesn't guard anybody either. On the interior plowden is ok on help defense, but we can't guard anybody in the post and our other bigs don't rotate at all. Our team defense is simply awful and I see no reason to single anybody out.

Meanwhile Matheny and Curtis are still the only guards that ever actually create anything. Everybody kept saying we had 6 guards going into year but I still don't know that we have 2. Matheny has to play because Mills and Gordon are mostly awful and nobody knows what you'll get from Fulcher on any given night.

This team just sucks. We had a nice win over Oakland but other than that it's been beating some crap teams and losing against anything better than mediocre.
