This was my concern with this team. If XJ has to be the leading scorer, it will be a very long year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jv1972iu Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Army had 17 rebounds to IU fifteen. Army had 7 offensive rebounds to IU 3. XJ had 1 and Sparks and Banks had 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 That was my point about X ... I'm relatively sure we're going to win this game, BUT... We know X can play at a high level... I'd rather him facilitate and get Ware, Mgbako, and Reneau shots... They're the ones that we need to get their confidence and level of play up...

Thought system would change…believe Woodson said it would once TJD would be gone. True but we’ve got a lot of new guys. You see guys like XJ getting frustrated with other new guys not being in the right spots on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been saying the same thing. Starting two centers and a forward is not working. XJ Gallo Cupps/ Gunn(I hope not) MM Ware 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly referring to Mgbako. It would benefit Woodson to change his offense based on the strengths of his personnel. He seems to be doing the opposite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWB Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I know Payton is out of game shape, but sure hope he gets some meaningful minutes in the 2nd ½, cause I think he will bring a ton of effort. Gallo is awfully quiet tonite. Almost seems like he's trying the force the other guys into more productive rolls. We need him to be "crazy man" again.

Sorry, but if X has to tell someone else on the floor every time down the court where he should be, that's not on X. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaroonRebel Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 However, Mgbako has got to start playing defense. He watches the game more than he plays it on the defensive end. His parents should tell him that half the game is defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems odd to be calling out XJ IMO when he's the only guy that has shown up tonight. He was distributing early but his teammates were being lazy, turning it over lazily, etc. So he stepped up like leaders do and kept us in the game. He does have 3 assists, and could have had about 5-6 if guys hit shots, so it's not like he was being selfish. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
