Wednesday might have been one of Dai Dai's worst career games (2 points on 28 minutes, 0-4 from 3). I'm hoping this is one blip in the season, but what if there's sonething more seriously wrong?
The only reason we beat Ga Tech last time was his 29 points, we'll need something like that again to beat that team. Hoping to see Dai Dai back in the groove in 2 hours. Go Bears!

11 pts on 12 FGAs, 5 TOs vs 0 AST.

In a must-win game at home against an inferior team. The best thing that can be said about Ames today is he might not have been the worst Bear.

I think he is a 2 in a 1 body and that is a problem. Pipprn has to be a higher priorty along with a good four and another shooter) i assume dort returns.

The 0 assists are what concern me, that's the weakest part of his game. He has 2.3 APG, not good enough for a guard like him (Boopie Miller, SMU's Chicago-bred guard, has 6.8).
To be a tournament team you need good passing and sharing the ball, not Dai Dai's strong suit. I appreciate his scoring ability, but when that goes away like it has the last 2 games, his "dribble into traffic, no pass" problem is glaring.

I agree but I swear he kicked to the corner on a drive for the Bell 3

He did. Scorekeeper clearly missed that assist. I think it was Bell's only Trey

If the scorekeeper didn't count THAT as an assist, what other less obvious ones did they miss?

As I believe someone else mentioned, Dai Dai is a two-guard in a point guard's body. I'm sure he knows that this affects his NBA chances. Maybe his next goal (at Cal, hopefully) is to become more of a facilitator.

When Dai Dai is doubled by bigger defenders, he seems to panic and turn the ball over (5x against Pitt). Opposing coaches are going to study the film from the Pitt game to use similar tactics, so Mark needs to address that issue before the team hits the court tomorrow in Atlanta.

It will be interesting to see if Dai Dai has a "bounce back" game today, in this all-important test.

Go Bears, let's get 'em!

I don't think he panics I think he just had a bad game. The whole team played like there was oil on the ball and it got stripped like 50 times. The Clemson game is the film game not last game. Last game was just a horribly executed game.

2 bad games, technically

We really need the old Dai Dai to return.

Milos needs to be careful when he holds the ball on the perimeter looking to pass. He got stripped by a guard from behind 2-3X
