We're better than an average team without those two. We're definitely better than getting throttled by State.

State is a decent team this season and we're playing them on their court without two of our top players and scorers, and they're a traditional rival. So I don't agree that this was likely a fifty-fifty type game. Yeah, we played awful, but I actually don't think we're all that good without Caleb and Henri. Maybe we should be better without them and maybe that's on Hubert, but the outcome of this game isn't really a surprise for me.

ETA: And I'll add that unless Henri at least returns very soon, and at close to 100%, the rest of this season is likely going to be ugly. It totally sucks, but you don't lose two of your top players (maybe your best two players) at this point in the season and not have bad things happen. And that's not an excuse for Hubert, as he and his staff will need to do a better job of adjusting than what we saw tonight, because what we saw obviously didn't work, at all. But you don't lose 2 of your Top 3 players at this late stage in a season and not have serious problems.

Can't figure out why we weren't trying to pound the ball inside instead of counting to jack threes. This was something else TH pointed out several times and he was spot on. In fact we did it the first play of the second half and got a bucket.

Yeah, that would have been a good idea.
 
Their only chance was hitting a bunch of 3s. Which obviously didn’t happen

Not sure what others were expecting beyond that offensively from this group

Zero rim pressure from the guards OR bigs. It’s like a game from last season on steroids

Funny thing is State usually shoots a bunch of 3s and plays small but was able to pretty much dominate inside.

It was an 80/20 game tonight. Maybe 50/50 ish at full strength.
