Because they don't pass.

Tonight Haws had 6 turnovers alone.

Emery and Haws combined for 9 turnovers and 3 assists.

The team had 14 assists and 23 turnovers.

There was a moment with 2 minutes left, and BYU pushes the ball up the wing to Nick Emery. It's one on one. Emery inexplicably drives to the basket and takes a tough, dumb contested shot. Doesn't let any time go off the clock. And this is our experienced "smart" guard.

He looks like a little kid out there. His body is a joke.

TJ Haws looks like a guy who sings hymns in the BYU tunnels every Sunday evening.

With these two guys we will not even a "top-half WCC" backcourt in terms of athleticism.

I think Haws has more upside. He's taller, he knows somewhat how to use his height. Nick is a head-case. He is what he is. He makes me miss Matty Carlino.

Nick is the kind of guy that if he's on the other team you hate him. And if he's on your team, you hate him even more. PASS THE DAMN BALL YOU SELFISH GOONIE!

Poor Mika. LP1.
