We are offensively challenged...

Until this team gets consistent quality point guard play they will never be a top team, even in a down year in College Basketball. We also look uninspired on the boards.

They are struggling to get into a flow offensively as the OP pointed out because of it. Perry is the answer if they can ever get his confidence up and Kimble would then be a nice breather for him. They are getting outplayed by middling at best MAC team right now.

Basketball is not that hard. These guys are trying to make it look hard. As much as I prefer college ball over the NBA,they need to watch more tape on some of the best NBA teams.They all share great ball movement.

The rushed shots and gunning are a big part of there being no flow. Not having a great PG also hurts here. Nwora has to go back to playing within the offense instead of jacking up contested fade away threes.

.Nwora needs to go inside more. Nwora seems to make shots in the paint and gets fouled on almost every drive. He only needs to take a 3 when he is completly open. NO MORE RUSHED SHOTS.

I wish Coach Mack would make Nwora run laps every time he shoots when there is either an open man underneath or at the 3 point line. Maybe then he would have more court awareness. He has tunnel vision on the rim.

I just think we come out sluggish in the first half and if we dont hit a couple of those lucky Nwora shots, then everyone goes into panic mode, if we play like we did in the second half, we can beat anyone in the country

David is the best option offensively at the point. Defensively he’s not there yet but he gets us in the flow of the offense way better then Perry or Fresh. Also why do we refuse to set ball screen? We don’t ever set any screens. Ever.

I'll probalby get crucified for this but I think Nwora is a selfish player. Way too many times he refuses to make the pass because he has already made up his mind he's going to shoot the ball no matter what. When he decides to play team basketball, this team will take it to another level.
