We just haven't seen him put together 40 minutes of consistent play.

How long did it take Walton to put together a full 40?

Our inability to get the ball inside to Moe/Teske matched up on a guy 9 inches shorter right under the basket is infuriating

Then Z dribbles to the mismatch. Boggling.

Gophers have no depth in the post behind Murphy with Lynch out. We've got to take it inside on Murphy more.

You've got to get the ball to Teske there. Feeding the post is a big area for Simpson to work on.

This team would be deadly if they could shoot. 33% again all kinds of struggles in the first half.

This team is not a 5 seed tourney team. Keep jacking up threes. Not taking advantage of the mismatches. John just lets it continue.

What game have you been watching? 5-16 from three. 5 times they’ve have had the mismatch and not one time they took advantage of it. Pretty sure everyone else is pointing that out as well.

you are a moron. to say we’re not a 5 seed because we’re losing a game by 2 at half with a ridiculous foul disparity, while minn is making prayer after prayer is so fucking asinine that i shouldn’t even bother responding to you because it pretty much proves, all on its own, that you lack the capacity for rational thought. but yeah, clearly i’m the troll. go fuck yourself

I haven’t gotten to see too many games this year so I’m not being sarcastic here. What exactly is it that Matthews does well? Why does he start?

And that seems to be it, generally.

He’s a “slasher” without the ability to finish

especially the first 10 minutes as we get closer to the tourney, can't keep sustaining shitty starts against better opponents.
