AU big test for MU

[icon]

Quit passing the f'ing ball to Phillips! And get him off the floor.

Lol, I'm with ya!

Meanwhile, Stone can't even get a touch on offense.

[Lightning Rod]

When is Coach ever going to tell Mitchell that he can’t shoot anymore 3s. It’s like a kid in grade school. He makes one out of ten and when he does make that one 3 he looks at the coach and says “see, I told you I could make 3s”.

Pierce feeling it tonight, but overall he shoots the three the same as Mitchell, but I agree.

Rod, there is no comparison. Pierce has a beautiful shot and release. Mitchell shoots the 3 like he’s actually right handed. Just watch the 2 shoot the ball. Fundamentally they’re not close.

Oh, I know, just telling you the facts. Up to this point Pierce has been meh on three point shooting.

A few guys with just atrocious starts. Northweather comes in and can’t do anything right. Running awful offense. Auburn MUCH more physical.

Decent defense so far otherwise we’d be down by a big number.

Randall tries but he is just not ready yet! Sad!

I have a bit more patience with a freshman, Phillips is a senior and plays like a freshman.

I just don’t get Gates’ affection for Phillips.

Boateng is another one, he's a zero.

He may just never be a scorer at this level. Not enough game. He is however a good enough athlete that if he commits to defense and rebounding he could be a contributor.

Boateng will be a contributor next year.
He still is in the learning phase.
He won't help Mizzou much this year.

I've seen nothing to indicate he will be productive, but I hope you're right. We've both seen guys make tremendous improvement from year to year so it could happen, but his play last year and 16 games this year leave me skeptical.

Lightning Rod,

You have to remain skeptical on Boateng and hope for the best.
I still believe Gates made some recruiting errors bringing in Mack, Philips and Porter.
Jevon is just like his brother - "BACK PROBLEMS". The guy is useless along with Mack.

Agree, becoming more obvious every game.

[Lightning Rod]

Message to Mizzou...guard the three line. Oh yeah, make your FT.

[rezero]

Clutch FT shooting down the stretch and we may have this one

[Armchair QB]

Mitchell was gassed. Glad to see him get a break with a 10 pt lead

[Lightning Rod]

Clutch FT shooting down the stretch and we may have this one

Just get the right guys to the line.

Boateng is so bad.

[rezero]

Boateng is so bad.

Needs to know when to kick it back out for a better shot and the “go up in traffic and expect a foul” doesn’t work in SEC

[Lightning Rod]

Boateng, my goodness. Seeing more T. O., less Ant, now Mack and Boateng together. I don't get it.

Facts: Pierce in 3 games coming into today was 31% on 3. Not great. Not bad. Considering he missed the entire pre-season that’s pretty good.

That % is going way up tonight. He’s a good shooter Rod. Trust me.

[rezero]

Boateng is so bad.

…ok, my bad he does suck

[Lightning Rod]

C' Mon Gates, get Boateng off the floor.
