Are the studio halftime folks high?

The offense had a tad more flow to it toward the end of the half. I do think in the half court, playing inside/out could be a good move if we move without the ball to screen and get open shooters and cuts.
Pope the only way to shut everybody up is start winning. Can’t keep losing. Might as well start tonight then build on that like somebody else stated.
That's the thing, JJ can get to the rim at will, it's what he does when he gets there that is infuriating.
Earlier in the season, he got a couple of sweet assists, but he’s so hard headed, he refuses to just try to be a pg. He could get good minutes if he would just share the ball.
Pretty good half considering MSU's hot start.
Moreno is balling. I liked our last play of the half. Chandler missed a fantastic look from 3 though.
We could build a pretty good team around Williams and Moreno if they are so inclined to return. I am not saying they will be first team All SEC, but they have the ability to be key members on an elite team.

Pope needs to come out with his best lineup and it doesnt include Mo or Aberdeen
His shot looks ok. He just needs some to drop. I’m not sure why he was in popes doghouse but he should be a key cog on this team. Frankly at this point I’d start him and see what happens. What’s there to lose?
Every person on TV now can't just analyze the game, they have to have an act! An embarrassment. Halftime show is pathetic. To be expected by Ron Slay.
I figured Pope was at least smart enough to get 2 for 1’s but, like Cal, apparently is not
Also regarding Chandler, if he had any guile or craftiness to finish around the rim with a modicum of defensive presence, he'd easily be our best guard. As he is now, he just isn't a threat when he gets inside the 3 point line.
That's why I said Pope uses analytics to substitute for conditioning and why he does mass subs. If we simply had better conditioning, Pope can play 7-8 guys consistently.
Man, Moreno is coming on! Damn, we NEED it!
Can somebody at the game yell down onto the court and make sure Kam knows he needs to shoot the ball more. The cowbell kids have no answer for the Tulane Titan
DA isn’t close to being a pg, but Pope keeps going to him.
Jasper has so much potential as a pg, but he refuses to share the ball at the most opportunistic times.
He bricked a 3 footer after getting to the rim, totally misses the rim.
That was a full team effort to get that lead at halftime. If you look at the stats everybody gave a little something
At least we fought back.
Keep it up. You have to win this game to stop the bleeding.

Can't believe anyone watches that crap anymore. As soon as it was halftime I turned on a show to stream until 2nd half starts.
I still think you gotta ride it out with JJ and let him adapt to the college game. Yea he does all the things people say. But the teams potential would be better with him getting more confident imo. I wouldn’t say that if Aberdeen was lighting it up for us.
If DA, Mo and Lowe left tomorrow, I would be fine with everyone else.
Your team right now is Marino, oweh, and kam Williams .
If they are effective you win

I can deal with suck while they play hard. I cannot and WILL NOT support lack of heart and work.
If you’re serious about the rest of the season Pope. You start this half with Aberdeen, Oweh, Kam, Jelavic and Moreno. Sprinkle in a little JJ, Mo and Chandler as needed. Garrison can’t be counted on to ever play smart basketball. He was abysmal that half. He just doesn’t have any feel for the game. Let Lowe sit. He can’t be counted on either. Who knows about JQ.
He at least went for it. Had Moreno on the duck in but MSU fouled with 37 seconds to go so at that point you would just be getting a rushed shot
I think they had to get past the shock of Lowe running to the locker room
It’s opening up other avenues for Pope to explore

Never would have thought Cam would be best portal pick up but he is.
100% and he should have played more minutes against all those cupcakes. Coach the hell out of him. He could he a damn good pg, Aberdeen is a stiff at pg and has no future there.
Pope is 100% responsible for the talent he brought here. He needs to lick his wounds and put about 2 or 3 assigned only to mop up minutes. Mo is too slow for the offense we have to play to be competitive. Aberdeen needs to learn to pass more and Garrison needs to never pass, just hand off. My rant for the night.
Nate Oats , lmao. He better pull this out or it would easily be the worst home loss by a top 15 team this season. No way be loses this game.
The game is there for the taking. Take it this time guys don't let it slip like Mizzou.
