Offensive Performance

You can’t get in the tournament and have a team play zone and say “ well they are playing zone so we have to shot 3s”

Another thing, we are the 12th ranked team in the country and we are letting Savannah state dictate what we do? This is what your saying we do?

It was game 1. And they wanted to have a 3 point contest, we agreed, and we won, big time. I just think your overreacting. Clearly we are not going to play every team we face this year like this. And even if we did play zones this way, we are SOOOO much better at shooting the 3 this year. Could it get us into trouble in a game, sure, is it gonna be a consistent problem. I absolutely do not think so. This isn't caupain and Johnson taking 15 3s a game.

That’s because you can’t rebound the ball defensively well in a zone especially without size.



The only problem i saw on offense was turnovers.

Cane needs to be the guy that settles us down, in the second half he did not do that for us today.

This is what i stated earlier

It’s also not 5 Jj reddicks out there. I’m not worried yet, I didn’t even get to watch the game, but I see how it could become a problem. It’s been a problem for about 10 years

Not blasting. Said it’s been a problem for years and could see it still being a problem. Also game is on YouTube for anyone that wants to watch

[cincyguy13]

How was I blasting our play? I commented on our play against zones for the last 10 years and seeing that we shot 30 3s, put 2 and 2 together to comment. What did I say that blasted our play?

We have Kyle and Gary for 1 more year. Let's not waste it. Take some 3's,sure, but not 30.! This year needs to be different!

Flash Gary to the high post.

The opposition paid the price for playing that zone. While it did give us a ton of open looks from the perimeter it also opened up rebounding opportunities. We killed them on second chance points and I believe almost set a team record in boards.
