Move Johnny or Ali to the point and put in a taller guard like Sonnen or Dunham to mix it up at the end (not the final minute, but for a little while in the last 3 or 4). Just my 2 cents.
    Everyone struggled on the offensive end, KA just struggled more. I think Coach Jake stayed with the experience.

      That was one of the ugliest games I have seen in awhile, but a win is a win and we always have tough games with Bradley. A good crowd tonight and the students turned out in force. It was a good thing we had fouls to give at the end. It really caused Bradley to get out of snyc. I am looking forward to see how the Panthers look on Saturday.

          Although I kind of agree with your statement, he was basically the backup point guard two years ago when we really didn't have one, and he doesn't make mistakes. However I do agree Ali, or Johnny should go to point when Kwadzo isn't on the floor.

            True, but I just think that changing it up would have created a little more offensive movement and different looks. The "hold the ball for 25 seconds and take a step back jumper" is effective at times, but when its not going, its not going.

                Were you at the Northern Illinois game? That was the ugliest game of the year....this was the second worst.

                  Yes, I was. It is a toss up between which one was uglier. In the NIU game the Panthers at least finished strong to win by 7.

                    Yeah Kwadzo has been in a slump for about 5 games now. He has been forcing it a bit, and has been really sloppy.

                    But we're still winning. He'll eventually get out of it, and then, we'll just win by more.

                        He did hit one of the biggest shots of the night...and a crucial free throw. How bout the heady play by Ali to perfectly time that late foul to keep Bradley from getting a good look at a last shot.

                          You know, thats the thing about him. He might be having the worst night ever, but in close games, it is always him or Ali hitting big shots or FTs to win a game.

                            KA seems to be hobbling around a little. Is he battling a leg injury?

                              Yup. KA, Ali, and Lucas were all clutch at the end. Ali's timing on the last foul was perfect. Simply perfect.

                              BTW,
                              I think it's pretty clear that this team is just about out of gas. Thank goodness that the next game is Saturday and not Friday.

                                Thought the whole offense was "offensive" tonight. When KA wasn't in, they really almost looked worse. KA was trying to create something / anything and it bit us with some bad turnovers. He also made some flat out lazy / telegraphed passes that got picked off. The other 4 guys were just standing much of the night, too. It put a lot of pressure on KA's shoulders to try to get that zone to move. Unfortunately, it was a bad night for almost all...ALMOST ALL. Ali was the savior with his shooting and that foul at the end. Heard him on the post game say that the first two fouls were called by the coaches. They then decided to play out the last 11 seconds with no fouls and see if they couuld just D up Bradley. Ali made the split second decision to foul Maniscalco because he knew they were trying to set him up for a 3 pointer and he also knew there couuld only be about 2 seconds left in the game. As it turned out, he got the call with only .6 seconds left and it totally hamstrung the Braves. What a great feel for the game he has and it saved this game for us.
