Texas Tech 2/3 6:00 ESPN+

Vik is mostly playing the 4 in conference play. We shouldn't expect him to play like a 5. His style isn't the problem. He's just not making shots right now. He's still creating for others, rebounding, and has the highest block plus steal rate on the team. Even with his recent dip in scoring, he's tied for third on the team in box plus minus with Aziz.

what have you done lately and against better and stronger competition. Without fundamental skills and the toughness to bang inside, I wonder if we are seeing Vik at his best and this is what we get. Sadly, we get it in the best conference in BB. Regardless, I am hoping he was ill and tonight we see a different player.

Reminds me more of the so called #1 recruit Jermaine Lawrence. At least gets within 5 feet as Jermaine stayed at the ft line or beyond. He also refused to bang and I saw smaller guys dominate him in HS. Once he got the scholarship, that was the end although many said an injury made him timid. Regardless he was timid.

I'll be honest Leo, I do not see the comparison there at all other than height. Lawrence smoked his way out of the rotation.

He's starting so I guess so?

Neither went inside. It didn't matter if he smoked. He didn't smoke in HS and still refused to go inside.

We're doing the right thing against PnR, staying with Washington. TTU has already taken several midrange shots.

I like the energy on offense. They need to have more unison, but so far so good.

[leo from jersey]

I also like the switching of the bigs. Keep them fresh and destroy in the second half.

Reynolds with a box out, rebound and a pass in stride.

Road game 3mas?

Walton is a one dimensional shooter. You CANNOT retreat against him.

I am really enjoying Tom Crean ------
