Coasted to a 14-point lead at half. Came out in the 2nd half and played defense like the game was over. Then hit a long stretch where we were clanking almost everything.
We really played poor defense the entire game. Presbyters were 6-9 from 3 at half. We played okay in the interior, but the piss poor perimeter defense was there the entire game. We just didn't play with energy and emotion. Then in the 2nd half after a decent first half shooting from the perimeter (5-12 from 3) we couldn't hit shots in the 2nd half (2-12 from 3). Add in missed bunnies, mainly in the first half, and poor FT shooting, and it was just a poor effort.
K-State basketball is about defensive energy fueling everything else, tonight that just wasn't the case. It was an effort that reminded me of a ton of Wooly games really. Just not good.
