MBB: Florida A&M vs Oregon (Wed 8 PM Pac-12 Network)

Best game so far for Dante, Lawson and Hardy. Nice to see those three heading in the right direction.

Still some major issues. Perimeter shooting and defense to be sure. But Dante, Duarte and Hardy all looked much better, I think Richardson comes back and this is a whole 'nother team. But until then... still some things to iron out. Much better than they were a week ago but probably not where they'd like to be. I wish Estrada could play this year. He has a Joseph Young type game that we could really use.

Our D has really bad lazy streaks. Thankfully, I think a lot of it is correctable since we have some good individual defenders. But too many open baskets under the hoop. I also wish we had CJ Walker. We don't really have any interior defensive presence or shot blocking.

I was thinking the same thing about CJ Walker. Mainly because I feel like you need those type of athletes in March. We had Jordan Bell/Boucher/Wooten when we made "deeper" runs.

Good to see Dante have a nice game. We need to remind ourselves that he actually should be a freshman this year, just 3 games into his college career.
