Good recap.

 

Wiggins is such an enigma. He has had an interesting year. Blows my mind how you literally can't even spot him on the court for a half or more at a time, and then out of nowhere he's a force.

He like others on this Terp team do not seem ready to catch and shoot, when the ball comes to him.  Then at other times, he shows flashes of being the alpha and tries to take the game over.   

I think Scott is the best player on this team, but Wiggins should be.

I think Wiggins has the most athletic ability and skill, but Scott is truly an alpha. Love that kid.

I think Scott is close, but I think he is being hurt trying to guard some of the bigs on the other teams.  He is a hell of a player though.

Maybe it is just a perception of mine, but it seems like the Terps come out better prepared on the road then at home.  The first 13 minutes last night, offensively, were an embarrassment.

Feel like it might be a mental thing, they still get the extra energy from going into someone's else building and trying to knock them off, but they don't have the same energy at home when there's no one there to cheer them on, especially with no student section

SOOOOO much of it is just shooting.  When a team is shooting the ball well, the offense looks great.  When they're not, like last night, it looks terrible.  Honestly I thought the Terps moved the ball OK for the first few minutes, they just couldn't hit a shot.

I agree in part.  Hot shooting can make any offense look good, but go back and look at the first half.  The shooting was bad for a reason. For most of the first 13 minutes, there was standing around, too much dribbling and no flow.  On the rare occasion where a shooter had some space, he was flat footed and not ready to shoot.

The main problem is a lack of a post game, but the offense has way to many long droughts.
