The most frustrating part of this team is that you see the flashes of being the talented team on both ends that bring the aggression and make plays happen against really good teams. And then you see the team that seems to mentally check out for periods of time on both ends turning the ball over, not blocking out, and not getting into defensive position. Clearly, we are at our worst without Davis/Morgan on the court to give leadership on both ends. And clearly, Green cannot be relied upon to give this team that kind of leadership consistently, especially when we most need an upper class man to take control and talk/play this team through a tough stretch.

This is a really hard IU team to like.

Phinisee just not ready for Big Ten competition.

 

He never has got himself back to the level he was playing at before the concussion. He was playing pretty aggressive offensively prior to that, attacking off the dribble and dishing the ball or scoring at the rim, and taking big shot at clutch moments from deep (and making them). I have seen very little of that aggressiveness since his return. I think the combo of that injury and intense conference play has set him back.
