Horton should not be getting minutes on a Texas basketball team

I was just about to say something about Hortons defense improving, and then the guy drives right past him for a layup. SMH. 🤦

UNCG throws the ball out of bounds

the guy who threw it out of bounds yells at his teammate for it

everyone on the court walks down to the other end because of the turnover 

the referee: “uncg ball!”

Am I the only one who gets frustrated by Abmas?

nope. his basketball IQ is lower than i thought it would be, and he’s pretty limited outside of scoring. also frustrating that he basically never gets to the line.

No. He has not played up to his resume and hype yet … he’s been below average on defense and handling the ball and his shot selection has been less than expected so far

Overall good half defensively. Offensive issues when they went zone for a few minutes but the defense was much better. 

The length with the big lineup (Mitchell, Disu, and Shedrick) gave us more length on the perimeter and inside. Maybe that's what we need.

Great intensity on the defensive end pretty much that entire half 

Agreed. The offense stalling out when UNC-G switched to zone was frustrating, but the defensive effort is much more important.

It makes a little sense. This big lineup (Disu, Shedrick, and Mitchell) has only played probably 5 minutes together all season. 

Trying to figure out spacing against the zone.

I hate to be that guy but UNC Greensboro's run also started right when Horton came into the game. He got the hook after a few minutes. 

It was also the Horton and Abmas combo again that ignited the run. RT has to stop playing these two together.

Only one of these two should be on the floor at one time. I honestly am not understanding what Horton is doing to get minutes over others they have on the bench.

Even 80% of tonight’s Hunter with the three bigs clicking on the court makes this team look like one with a viable sweet 16 chance

I would feel a lot better about that sentiment if I knew Texas defense would play consistently as well as it has tonight.

Thing is I think it's somewhat sustainable. 

It's amazing what happens when Horton's lack of defense is just sitting on the bench and not hurting the team.
