Why does Ballo get the ball at the 3 point line? He made good passes when he was down low, but I can't recall him making a great pass from the 3 line.
Murray-Boyles has been a non-factor and I think we're playing B+ defense. That lob to Carlyle was the wow play of the year. We should win by 30.
Terrible defense on that last SC possession. Guys standing around. Not going after that long rebound. Ballo - a bit disappointed in him as he appears to have worse hands than Uwe Blab.
These are the culturally weak, lacking commitment to winning, and zero killer instinct reasons that reflect directly on Woody.
We we basically in command of the whole game. Won by 16. S Carolina isn't anything special but we hit our shots and made our FTs. Played pretty well, IMHO.
Guard play is a whole different thing now. It was so poor last year. Today we had capable guards.
Some iffy stretches but always in control and won by 16. Idk hard to be too upset for the third game of the year.
Good win, still want to see more movement on offensive end but shooting was much better today.
0.98 per defensive possession vs a top 90 offense = we need work and to quit being lazy when we have a lead.
Movement is better than we've had under Woodson.

I still saw more than I’ve seen like mbako made some nice Princeton style cuts to the bucket. Woody is running some of that stuff.
Tucker, Galloway also had some nice cuts today. I'm just happy seeing the ball come back out after a post up. Would like to see much more of that, Malik going 1 on 2 not so much. Ballo is a more willing passer ..
Closed out the game hitting all 14 of their last 14 FT attempts. That's refreshing after the last few seasons.
I believe IU has played better each of their three regular season games! Good to move forward instead of backwards. Tennessee was an exhibition game but the Hoosiers are 2-0 vs the SEC this year!
We will need more scoring off the bench. Tucker and Galloway are the only scoring threats off the bench. Goode doesn't look comfortable and part off the offense. He should be the wing player we kick the ball out to for an open 3, but he doesn't seem to be a guy that can come off the bench and start making shots right away.
2 scoring threats off the bench is perfectly fine. It's two more than we had last year.
Very true. But I have to expect Goode is going to get productive too. So that makes three. Even better.
He's maybe pressing a bit ... once he becomes more comfortable the shots will drop.
