****Miami vs. No. 10 Florida GAME THREAD****

[RBradleigh]

Not a hot take, they can’t shoot.
Missing 6 feet away, missing free throws, they shoot for sh*t. I hope its a one off as the only game I watched, can’t get worse.

UF is good, don't think they're top 10 good, but they're good. This isn't a bad loss, but this is exactly what I think most people were afraid of when the roster was built. The flaws were glaringly obvious from the start.

There's really not a lot to be optimistic abt. you wanna be an *** and attack me for saying it good for you.

It's game 4 of a complete gut job with an entirely new coaching staff and roster. If you're formulating opinions this early on then you can't be helped

We’ve bricked multiple wide open 3’s, too.

Yup. The lack of shooting is just glaring. It makes us easy to defend.

1st game ive watched all yr but they definitely look like a very mid team. Horrible FT shooting and missed a ton of shots up close. I like the coach and think hes gna turn it around but not sure if it'll be this year

Just tuning back in, but we used to be a top FT shooting team. Need to get back to that ASAP. 8/18 isn’t going to do it.

Not sure if I missed it but would've liked to see us go zone atleast for a possession or 2, just to give them a different look. We haven't shot it well, but they haven't been barnburners neither.

 

[Gables Canes]

No full court press? A little perplexing a defensive minded coach doesn’t have us pressing to steal some possessions late.

 

[chris2183l]

For anyone thats watched the other games this season, does reneau always miss this many inside a 3 foot radius? My god

“Good losses” to SEC teams get you ranked in football, so I look forward to being Top 15 come Tuesday.

If it helps you any, I think we're better than I anticipated. No reason to get bent out of shape for people giving their opinions. It's practically why we're all on here. GO CANES!!!

 

[EightiesCane]

Temo needs to be in the game.

 

[Gables Canes]

Henderson’s offensive game has been hard to watch. Please don’t tell me we have another DeQuan Jones on our hands - athletic freak who can’t shoot and is overall pretty useless on offense. That’s what I see tonight, but I sure hope I’m wrong.

 

[AtlAtty]

Lucas has clearly prioritized defensive basketball. It will work most games. But against really good teams, our lack of shooting will hold us back.

But considering that we have a new, and 1st time coach, and a completely new team, Lucas had to make some choices, and I generally agree with prioritizing defense this season.

Oh opinions are welcome. It's a whole other thing calling a team 'mid' when you haven't watched them play

Be nice to make a little run here with 2 of their bigs out, make ‘em sweat a bit and give us something to build on.
