New Mexico 62 Bonnies 38 11:44 Second Half

In the first trip after the media timeout, Z went inside to Carter who promptly threw the ball back out to Z who hit nothing but net for a 3. This is what the Bonnies need to continue to do. It frees up from space for outside shooters and at least gives the impression that we have some sort of presence in the low blocks. Then two trips later Lee got the ball at the top of the arc and walked. Why the Bonnies don’t utilize him down low more I have no idea, but they need to. And why they don’t at least let someone within six feet of the basket touch the ball every trip is beyond me. Eleby is completely out of control at the point, pushing the ball into three Lobo defenders and losing the ball only to result in easy points the other way. The defense is also pathetic. They’re leaving shooters completely wide, wide, wide open on the wing and the Lobos have hit five 3’s in just eight minutes. Horrendous basketball all the way around.
